They do not get involved in their funding efforts except to be sure the money they grant goes where it is supposed to go. (Fraud, etc.)  In general, whatever their grantees do with the research that is accomplished belongs to the grantee.  There are exceptions in their history and their charter may have changed since I last talked with them, over 8 years ago.  In any case, count me in.

We are currently just starting contract negotiation - like they sent me a couple emails saying we'll get back to you shortly. Most of these questions need to be addressed in the negotiations. Our first task - in parallel with early negotatiions - is to set up the company that will actually sign the contract. We need people to help put this together. Then we can answer the questions.
