The Wolf's Den

[CravenP]

I don't have messaging here on IHUB and didn't want to post this on the PASO board itself, so this seems like the next best place.

I appreciate the MASSIVE amounts of work and DD you've put into PASO. I know recently there seems to be a split on whether or not the merger is still on. If you're still interested in speculative DD on CLX's business read on.

Recently someone brought up CommonPass. It's remarkable similar to what CLX proposes to do with HA. So much so, that it makes one wonder if CLX might have a hand in it.

From my bit of digging there seems to be just enough coincidences that it's possible, but not enough to be definitive.

First, what the pass is doing is EXACTLY what HA is doing.

Second, the timeline.

As far as I can tell the timeline seems to Sync up. (I'd appreciate it if you added or corrected here if you see errors.)

-East African countries start to run into border problems and come up with a solution in June. https://thecommonsproject.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" >Way back machine shows no CommonPass on the website at that time.

-At this time CLX and JG are reaching out through their networks for who else wants to take advantage of their 'lab results process'. (When did JG get his patent, April or May right?)

-Just prior to July 15th the Common Project reaches out to CLX. (This is speculative. No proof to support it.) So CLX says - 'We've gotta delay, this is huge.'

-Following July 15th JG and his Partners in the CommonProject are running around globally, getting folks on board. This is when we're seeing tweets with flags about meeting with this country and that country.

-By Aug 18th we can see https://thecommonsproject.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" >CommonPass talked about on the Common Project's website.

-Plans for both HA and CommonPass to release in Sept are delayed until early Oct. Now.



Third, there's two links I've found between CLX and the CommonsProject.

I mentioned the Accenture and World Economic Forum link on the boards a few days back. Pretty tenuous link considering both are gigantic corporations. It's likely they'd be working together just because of their size. It could be a line of communication where partnerships can be found but maybe not.

The link I'm more interested in is Her:



She's a Current Team Member with the Commons Project working in Partnerships.

Here's her linkdin.

She worked at Cerner from 2013 to 2015 as Sr. Business Strategist. This is important because Cerner is, and was, a part of the Cooperative Exchange. We know JG was Pres at the Cooperative Exchange from 2012 to 2015.

So both JG and Mrs Hermann were at the CE, a networking and collaborating organization, from 2013 - 2015.

This is a more definitive link that lends more credence to CLX being a part of the CommonPass. Honestly, still not a sure thing. But network relationships like this is how business partnerships are formed.

So at this point, I'm thinking HA is the US based 'non-travel' pass and the CommonPass is the global travel pass. Next week we'll find out more definitively with the 'new partners.' Interesting note, as soon as this was discussed on IHUB on Wednesday, CLX's twitter followed the World Economic Forum as well as Delta and Hawaii.

I think the major 'nope, clx doesn't have a hand in it' flags are how few links there are. CLX isn't mentioned anywhere w/regards to the commons project or the CommonPass. CommonPass could just be the Direct Competitor to any travel pass that CLX wants to make which if that's the case, that's some steep competition.

Let me know what you think. And I appreciate any I may have missed.

Btw, I didn't want to post this on the regular board yet, because there's a few harassers there that would try to call all the people involved and beg for more info instead of waiting till next week. Maybe I'll post this there later today...
