True. :P I do have more information, but it's long and can use more focus so I was going to wait till I know more. But, since you complained, here is what it's all about: -- Going Viral: Leveraging An Outbreak Response Tool for Rapid Mobile Development For over 10 years, ALPHA (Architecture for Leveraging Public Health Applications) has been used to manage and control outbreaks and emerging public health issues. From tracking the SARS outbreak, to capturing and helping control the spread of disease, and security monitoring, ALPHA has been a key platform developed by the Public Health Agency of Canada and used across the country. This platform is currently patent pending in Canada and the United States. ALPHA is built upon Java technology as a fully portable software engine. It is a module-based system where all desired features can be implemented simply through an application interface. This smooth integration into the ALPHA component suite gives ALPHA the advantage of being able to bridge the gaps in multiple datasets and devices. With an already large and growing base of integrated components (email, Oracle, MSQL, Derby, Twitter, Facebook, as well as some to do some number crunching and data analysis) ALPHA is ready to smoothly aid your product by providing a seamless point where decisions can be included alongside your existing processes. As ALPHA continues to be used in more and more distinct applications, its flexibility grows and its usefulness increases. ALPHA technology has now been incorporated into mobile and tablet environments thereby increasing its portability and ease of access. We have to app's built for a demo. Our goal is to get this platform into as many developers’ hands as possible so they can play and fully comprehend the potential applications first hand. We are willing (subject to approval on my end and terms) to look at either a follow up dev camp (with one of the inventors and / or lead programmers) and look at how we can license it to Skullspace developers for non-commercial uses, or a trial, or commercial use, etc. -- I'd like to meet with him and get further information and a better 'angle'.
