I understand the need to protect one's business investments. But it was my understanding that the entire VI package was FOIA -- its just that one would need to be careful not to cross the FDA in implementations.
So the "import API" should be open source, and the "VI background processor" should be open source too, I suspect. What we need are people who understand the system and can explain it -- or at least better than the usual documentation. I suspect that there is money in the area on this subject and that is why there is a tendency towards secrecy.
