To Do List

Questions for John

• Did we order more exacto-blade sets, the small snips?
• Do you want help doing a tool inventory/posting it to the ops folder?
• What do you think about a daytime session?

-- for many of these, see hacking section of Arduino site

To Do

Done 2006-2005

• Check transistor/motor circuit and relay circuit on pin 13 of Arduino NG. TODD
  • We already know (from John's tests) that an LED on that pin doesn't light up well because there's already an LED and a resistor on that pin, soldered on the module. I want to know what other common digital input and output tasks are affected by that circuit on that pin.
• Prepare for EPA audit JOHN
