At this stage, I am trying to get people to actually look at the documents
before I start actively marketing this scheme.

I am currently in the process of spinning up my own company. When I worked
as a Principal Scientist for two major Internet concerns for a total of
over 20 years, one of my main job functions was identifying interesting
technologies.

The Mesh makes use of a unique set of cryptographic capabilities. It is the
first time to my knowledge that anyone has explored the potential of Torben
Pedersen or Matt Blaze's work.

If people would like this to be an open system based on non-proprietary
standards, this is your chance.
