In this paper I describe a new software package (“AIPS++”) being written by a consortium of seven astronomical institutions spread over four continents. I start by describing the background to the project, followed by a summary detailing what AIPS++ is and why it is being written in this way. Section 3 describes the challenge of running a globally distributed project spread over four continents. Finally I describe the current status and an estimated completion date.
