Open CV Tutorial
Open Computer Vision Tutorial. This looks interesting and something else to have an experiment with at some point. Would also be good at the Paignton Library STEM group meetings.

Big Blue Button 2.4 testing
I am in the process of helping to test Big Blue Button 2.4

This is going well and the improvements from 2.3 are welcome.
The faircam server will soon be running 2.4 once it is out of beta / testing and the test server will move to run the 2.5 beta / testing software.
It is quite nice when you find a problem and are able to report it, gives you a good feeling you have made a contribution to a wider project that is used all over the world.
I have actually made a suggestion on the developer forum for a feature that would be useful. So as with finding problems, making feature requests is also really good.
In most cases one of the the BEST thing you can do, is to let the developers know that the software works. I think this often gets overlooked, developers are human after all.
