Hello folks,
I am not sure if this is allowed but I scanned the rules and did not see any references to NOT doing this.
I researched, interviewed and then engaged an IP firm [Fulwider Patton] in SoCal to write up a patent application last year and we filed it 5 months ago. It is a process patent for a program that could be cross platform.
There are an abundance of PC developers around, some of whom are friends of mine but I would like to concurrently have a Mac person on the team since in my opinion Mac people tend to do a little more outside of the box thinking and are accustomed to elegance in computing.
What I am offering may or may not be a great deal, it remains to be seen. I will tell you up front that I have not developed a software invention before. I will also tell you that I did successfully invent and market an invention which allowed me to quit my EE job at Northrop in '89 and it continues to feed me today. It is not a huge invention but I never had to work for anyone again.
I believe the patent app I filed [if granted] will be orders of magnitude more successful and can be licensed to manufacturers. If interested, we can chat informally about your qualifications and if there is a match, I can email you a Confidential Disclosure Agreement that you can sign an fax back. Once I receive the CDA, you will get a copy of the patent for your perusal and you can then ask questions.
Your qualities and your qualifications:
The SDK of the device we are going to do the demo requires:
On the PC side:
Development environment
Windows 2000, XP (Home/Professional)
128 MB or more (256 MB or more when using XP)
50 MB or more available storage
USB2.0 or IEEE1394
Microsoft Visual Studio6.0, Microsoft Visual Studio.NET2003 or later
Target:
Windows 2000, XP (Home
128 MB or more (256 MB
50 MB or more available
USB2.0 or IEEE1394
On the Macintosh side:
Mac OS X (10.4 or later)
256 MB or more
50 MB or more available storage
USB2.0 or IEEE1394
Xcode2.1 or later
Target:
Mac OS X (10.2 or later)
256 MB or more
50 MB or more available storage
USB2.0 or IEEE1394

Your qualities and your qualifications:
- Age is not an issue be old enough to write software and healthy enough to be around when we finish the project.
- You have spare time to devote to development
- You have written working programs before. If not, you are confident that you can get up to speed quickly and compile some sample programs that run.
- Ideally, you are also somewhat familiar with developing for the PC side. Although I want to develop for the Mac, the reality is that the demo, unless you can develop it for the Mac, would most likely be PC based.
- Are open to giving advice AND taking suggestions
- Before you join us, you will have assessed your availability and your stick-to-it-tiveness and will not be wasting our time and yours by joining us and then not being able to continue because you joined the neighborhood bowling team.
