I didn't mean for it to be misleading, I apologize. In the post I mentioned my concern over the economic viability of solving this problem for them, I intended that to be a clear signal of profit motive on my part.

That's true, I am more interested in gauging if this problem is worth solving in the first place than I am interested in finding a specific solution. I am nonetheless interested in helping my friends.

No, sorry, I can't share a link.
