So, if I understand this correctly, it's the latest in a series of attempts by Alan Kay to find the right home for his vision of a new Xerox PARC. That began with VPRI (NSF funded), then CDG (SAP funded), and now HARC (YCR funded).
As I understand it, VPRI wrapped up because they ran out of money. I wonder what caused the move away from CDG?
Regardless, I hope he succeeds before we run out of four-letter acronyms funded by three-letter acronyms.

(Edit: CPRG -> CDG, my bad)
