(He didn't, but he won't do anything to squelch the rumours.) Once he reads the after-mission reports from the Cat's Cradle incident, he'll want a copy of the tech... but he won't tell anyone about it if he gets it.Will take some time until the tech is reproducible, Quattro didn't left any useful howto's behind.
Through his GJ/Space-Patrol connections Noah will be able to get regular updates how the development of the SOTs is progressing... but useful tech that is small enough to be man-portable will have to wait for a few years.
About the rest of CI's experiments with the tech? It will get out (either to Space Patrol or to GJ) in 2019-2020 that they are doing much more with Quattros tech than the SOTs... I am not quite convinced that CI will be willing to share the technology at this point (but they might give some people an overview what is possible with it and what they are doing with it).
