An open source platform for engineering biology: 20n/act

This is awesome! You may have invented something like the first CAD for Synthetic Biology, or even better a CAD that design the solution automatically!

I wonder if it is possible to create a wide range of commercial drugs with the tools on Github?

And am I correct to think that it pilots a bio-reactor automatically?

Is it limited to a few kind of bacteria/fungus, or can it accept any kind of cell?

I suppose that the genetic engineering method is outside the scope of your platform, do you have any requirement on it?

As a company, in an industry where IP and secrets are so important, what is their motivation for open sourcing it?
