Missing indeed !??...

" One feature missing from the Linux kernel in this area is a reliable, efficient and transparent interprocess and interprocessor communication protocol that we can use to build highly available Linux clusters "

Can't the "Desktop", if an IPC can be said to be Desktop or Server oriented, D-BUS just evolve to adress this need ?

If so, then that feature is not really missing, it just need more development...

Would be a pitty to have fragmentation in this department, in name of marketing differentiation,... , and everybody will be served:-)

The article is written by the usual DCL/CGL crowd. It's full of bullshit and you shouldn't take it too serious.
