[sudo-discuss] Downstairs Keypad is Currently Not Working

Here's a suggestion: I think the root of a lot of these problems is the
Rasberry pi. I propose we off load the keypad functionality to another
computer that calls the pi via HTTP to open the door.

Also please keep in mind that the keypad is an ongoing project. It's in
alpha/prototype stage right now. It is not a well tested production device
and should not be treated like one. We have multiple ways to get in to that
door (5, last time I counted) so lets make sure that people who need to get
in are aware of at least one backup. Also if we want something reliable
then we should really look in to purchasing a system that is already in
production.
