Agree, what about the other tools on the website, that is using the new time format you've created, are they within the patent too? It's really unclear what the patent is covering, and unfortunately your comment didn't help.

Sorry I can't disclose what the patent is covering for now, but I can say it's mainly about the IP. Are you planning to use hTime? I'm happy to chat about it if you like to.

Yes, I'm working with multiple organizations that are suffering from the problem it aims to solve, but the vagueness of the patent and lack of transparency would make it very hard to even start talking about it.
