I have been given the protocol document for the whiteboards, I am not allowed to
share it with anybody unfortunately.

I am just waiting for approval of funds for me to start development of this
driver and an X11 library to make the ink capture work.

I expect to start work at the end of October, I could do with a mentor to help
me with this.

Just so you do not get the wrong idea, I plan on sticking around to maintain the
driver once its complete even if its my spare time to do so.
