    Hello, my name is Blaine Hewitt. Now I know that you have stated
previously that you have no intention of bringing support to the Oculus
Quest. Which is completely understandable since I know that not only would
you have to develop around a completely new Operating System but another
CPU architecture and much much more I assume. But with the soon release of
the Oculus Quest 2 and it's new XR 2 chip-set makes a pretty good argument
for it. As this would allow for much easier use in education (as is what I
am attempting to do with it). I think it will be even easier now to push
updates with SideQuest <https://sidequestvr.com/> being relatively simple
to setup. I know that another (Naome
<https://blog.matryx.ai/nanome-on-quest-public-beta-is-now-available-b546321a04e9>)
program is already available on the platform. But I do like your program a
lot more since it is able to be used for free unlike Nanome Pricing
<https://nanome.ai/pricing/> which is... as to say unappealing to public
schools (such as mine). I was was also thinking (sorry if I am becoming
annoying at this point) that if you do make a version of the Quest that you
could make that GitHub branch available to the public. As for example while
I may not be great at understanding complex protein structures I can help
to make the whole experience more user friendly.

Anyways if you read this far thank you for taking time from your day to
read this.

   If you want to know who I am, my name is Blaine I am in my senior year
of High School (Waynecsd <https://wh.waynecsd.org/>). I have to do a
project by the end of the year where I have to present an area of study I
want to pursue and I decided to research the effects of VR on the human's
ability to learn and retain information. Budget..... None
