Love the project (saw it on Hackaday last month). I was noticing your forum spam problem, and thought I’d float a suggestion by you and your admins. The SpamHammer mod for phpBB by Dangerous Prototypes was developed for profoundly similar purposes to keep spambots out. Over at NBitWonde we make use of it to help prevent spambots from overwhelming our forums pretty successfully. Here are some links about that for you to investigate:

Good luck! :-)

If you’re interested, there’s still plenty of time to apply and to jump in on our discussion.

I hope you do not mind that I occupied the facebook/opentricorder project today. Would you consider joining our team to make an open source entry to the Qualcomm Tricorder competition?

Also light detection to help find the best place for solar panels and gardens and so forth to get the best results possible.And of course weather forecasts. I can’t wait for this to be on the market.Good luck hope to see this available soon.

The TNG/DS9/VOY clamshell styles are neat, but let’s not forget it was The Original Series that got all this started.
