We will provide a little application for the registration desk that does work similar to: - list of names available. On arrival of person that name gets selected. - You hand them the wireless ruleset and they acknowledge they got it and will follow it. If so you click a checkbox marking it as ok and only that will finally allow them to access the network. - You see a new screen showing the wireless password for the user. Give it to them, they should write it down somewhere. In this interface we will also have a checkbox "arrived". Click it during this process. Allows us to easily see if someone is there / isnt. Until this interface is finished simply keep a list of names of people that arrived written down somewhere, so we can adjust the database when the interface is there. Same for the wireless stuff. I expect it to be working around noon, some volunteer is already working on it. -- bye Joerg [...] when an Idea and a developer get laid, code awakes to the world, then a Debian package is made and pulled in the unstable distribution[...]
