[sudo-discuss] Putting "SudoRoom opening hours status" on the front page

[William Budington]

This would be fantastic.  There are currently a few access repos:

1. Doorman - Sudoroom entry raspi repo (sends serial signal to latch)
2. Sudoor - The outer physical door access control stuff for sudo room
3. sudoor-addcode - Node.js API to add RFID codes to outer door

To have a reliable API for physical access, we can't rely on Doorman
exclusively.  People open the door all sorts of ways.  They unlock the
space with a key and open the latch from the inside.  At night they may
close the latch without sending any signal to tamale.  So we can't rely
on the state of the space simply being the last signal sent to the raspi....

BUT we should create a new repo with sensors on the door, that just
completes a circuit when the door is closed.  If either of the doors are
open, we can assume the space is open!  This elementary electronics is
beyond me, but I can help with creating a python RESTful interface, and
once that's working we can put it on the homepage!
