March 6, 2006
Alan, Colin, Tom, Maduna, Tom, Bryan, Jeff, Charlie
- Alex did the mojo and we now have DBI/DBD on the pmp. Next is finish transactions and cleanup code.
- Jeff emailed ARM about the watchdog timer, no word yet. Charlie will look at the BIOS setting.
- Colin will look into how to do damping of the direction and speed readimg.
- Colin will fix the graphs including the date ranges.
- Breadboard Wed at 1p
- Rainguage is working and recording data, congrats Tom and Maduna. Mounting, reseting discipline and technique, and display elements are all that's left.

- X10 systems. Tom waded into this and found some stuff. Heyu. Alan will get a serial controller.
- Use WECI tower for annenometer mountings.
- GPS.
February 13, 2006
Alan, Jeff, Bryan, Colin, Maduna, Tom, Alex, Charlie
