<p>Hi Manuel and Ronald, <br>
</p>
<p>Firstly my apologies for taking so long to respond to you around
this Grant Application. <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>After consideration, we would like to advise that we will be
declining this Grant Application. <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>While we see merit in making the platform itself - the collection
mechanism - open source - we feel that the real value of this
platform is in the data that is gathered, and our understanding is
that the data would be held under a proprietary license. <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>We instead recommend that this product be developed as a
commercial startup / commercial enterprise. <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>We thank you for your Grant Application and wish you well for
your project. <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Kind regards, Kathy<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
