Dear Wolmet,
Thank you for your interest in our application. It is now being developed
as an open source tool with support from the Andrew Mellon Foundation. We
are very near to having a working version for you to try, possibly within
the next few weeks. You can follow our developments at
http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Open+Virtual+Usability+Lab.
Also please feel free to get in touch with me in several weeks for an
update.
Regards, Ron
