Minutes

science festival

Gunstick presented our application to the science festival 2013 which has been accepted. The activities will be Non_Newtonian_Fluids:

• Classic non newtonian fluid: solidification on impact (corn starch)

  • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kevqQHZSeao
  • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDzampa3xrc
• liquification on impact (soap)
  • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GX4_3cV_3Mw
• Others:
  • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=npZzlgKjs0I
• Idea for a hand cleaning station

Here is the event page for ScienceFestival2013

Member-(business)cards

The idea is to have member cards and/or business cards without an expiration date. The validity of the card is checked by scanning a QR code. The code directs to this page (example for gunstick)

https://i.syn2cat.lu/member.php?id=gunstick

Just type an username in the URL and you get that user's page. The data is retrieved from mematool (i.e. ldap server). The page also displays the QR code, which can be used on own business cards.

There are also links provided:

• to the profile on the wiki
• to check the validity and retrieve the PGP key.

Kenn's request for flying zone

Kenn often goes flying with his planes in the nearby fields. He would like that inexperienced pilots (like most of us) don't go there, as there are buildings, roads and houses very close. It can happen very fast that a plane gets out of control and causes accidents and injuries. Such an event could jeopardize Kenn's project as we could risk getting a ban on flying anything there.
