This is a Masters program in the US so the cost is high and the
backgrounds vary wildly and not in a good way (most don't have any
experience of relevance); tread lightly.

However, with that said, it would be sweet to see both in some way :)

This is all the same (parts to a whole); and I have been mapping this
out for a little while.

This is good though I think they could do something more fun since they
have to select ours over others'.

However, given that an evaluation like this (depending on the applied
resources) can run about ₦10,000,000.00 [0], I propose having them do
just that, evaluate Tails.

Send 'em 1.7 :)

We can extract a lot of cool stuff from their education and apply to our
own testing/evaluation/development process by reverse engineering their
report.

Wordlife,
Spencer
