Hi all,

Just a quick note on progress & etc.

I built the server and tested it for a few days to make sure it's reliable
and quick. Today I am installing joomla and phpbb and a couple of other
niceties, to see what works well and what doesn't. The site's hidden so no
point checking just yet... :)

Also, had an education on the US postal system! I was going to a company
named PostNet, who do mail for USPS, UPS and FedEx. What I didn't know is
these guys are a bunch of cowboys. They take your money then send the
package the cheapest way to maximise their profits, and will just hold onto
it for days or even weeks if they don't know what to do with it. I found
three packages there last Wednesday that they still hadn't passed on from
the week before. Luckily, I recovered them and took them to a bonafide
mailing location, and I will never do business with them again. From now on
it will be USPS or Fedex, depending on weight and destination.

Stiiiiiill waiting on some paperwork on the battery holders so the
compliance logos are all legit :)

I've got in the prototype new super-low-power Minerva boards and need to
make a small modification. These boards are entirely SMD, small, and
incredibly low power.

Other things are moving forward. Some items have sold, so when I need parts
I can just order them.

Also, remember, I have a bunch of MPlanes! I will do a limited run of
CUSTOM MPLANES which have built in hi-grade power supplies. These are
amazing PSUs that are switch mode, and incredibly small, but can run
anything you can plug in, including hard drives, floppies, etc. More on
that later.

Hope everyone has a great week!
