[vcf-midatlantic] Museum report

[Evan Koblentz]

Only a few visitors today, but they were good ones, including two 
engineers -- one ex-HP, one ex-Bell Labs.

Our museum internet access is via a hotspot (Mobile Citizen, which is 
$10/month exclusively for non-profits). We recently ordered a newer 
version of the hotspot, which arrives next Monday. But they made a 
mistake and deactivated our old one yesterday .... GRRRR ... so we 
didn't have any internet access today nor will we have it this weekend. 
There's a change they will reactivate the old one in the next day or 
two. I am skeptical but I have no way of knowing if it works until I get 
there and try it Saturday.

I spent some time working on version 2 of our touchscreen information 
kiosk. This time the work is focusing on better layout/writing for the 
kiosk content. In version 1 I focused on getting all the right tech 
bits, tying up loose ends with the CSS, getting the web server running, 
and making sure the whole setup is rock-solid reliable.
