How are you this morning?
I would like to talk with your more about your 'open source' experience. I am currently in a conversation with a very sharp young man who wants me to collaborate with him on bringing these ideas to colleges and universities.
In addition, I would also like to see how we might be able to support each other in the growth of our respective business.
Please let me know when we might be able to sit down for a conversation.
Thank you,
Sherlock I. Graham-Haynes
