Access to that API would require negotiation with, and likely money given to, Facebook. I'm sure Jaffa would be only to happy to speak with someone about gaining access if anyone here has an "in", but I'm sure he's neither willing nor able to hand over large sacks of money for the privilege, and I don't know if he'd be willing to sign NDAs and take Hermes closed source.
I don't know how much money we're talking about here, but if it's something very realistic, maybe we could all chip in a bit, you know, in the spirit of community?
