This is a mock-up demonstrating the two existing forms of output from the HacDC lab occupancy sensor.


At the moment, the system can report status to the world in two ways:
* A text occupancy message suitable for inclusion on the Live Status page
* Updates to a public Google Calendar account


=== Future Changes ===
(NOTE - the message above is reset whenever the monitoring script restarts (often during development)It will be correct once the system goes operational)
The sensor is currently reporting its status via a extremely  convoluted mechanism.  As a result of this mechanism, I cannot run the live status system entirely within HacDCIn order to fix this problem and provide access to the real-time data for all takers, the wiki must be updated to:
* Support a "nocache" extension, allowing the text occupancy message to display current rather than cached data
* Configure the "include" extension to allow access to a single directory or file outside of the web root




Once these changes are complete, the system will be migrated entirely to the HacDC lab and realtime sensor and occupancy data can be made available for other projects.


=== Text Occupancy Message ===

HacDC has been CLOSED for 14 hours 3 minutes


=== Public Google Calendar ===

HacDC's Live Status

(NOTE - the message above is reset whenever the monitoring script restarts (often during development). It will be correct once the system goes operational)
