hey guys,

just wanted to know what your respective status' will be for this project.
the CIDRZ guys are eager for something to test out soon.  Andres, good job
on the presentation, presenting the problem at hand.  Next time we could use
some more textual notes for the audience to get a handle on the issue at
hand, but overall, I think the simplicity of our solution is pretty self
explanatory.

Anyway, I saw the sample code Andres wrote for the Nokia N82.  Looks like
camera control is doable.  For the time being let's not worry about optimal
lighting and such, (I've got a contact i'm working with on that) and just
focus on data collection and transmission.

One hope is to get http://ict4dev.dimagi.com/ up and running for the docs at
cidrz to provide feedback on the web interface as its being built.

Attached is a study i got from the camera contact I met last week from a
SUNY dermatologist using cell phone imaging as part of his remote diagnosis
system.  It's the results and opinions of 1 doctor, but it's fairly
convincing and corroborates the informal evidence of how the docs and nurses
diagnose their images (via an lcd projector or a TV screen) via low
resolution images.
