[SystemSafety] Qualifying SW as "proven in use" [Measuring Software]

[Robert Schaefer at 300]

The number one, two, and three issues are that private companies:
 1. don't want their dirty laundry aired in public.
 2. don't want to be told what to do or how to do it
 3. don't really care unless there was some legal reason to care, and even then don't really care

-NASA spends hundreds of millions to take a few snaps of a distant
-planet, we need software engineering researchers with some vision
-and drive (and connections).

-For a lot less than $25 million an experiment comparing developers
-allowed to use a particular XYZ vs. those not allowed to use XYZ
-could be run.
