read on if you have a multimeter to lend, or want to understand the door
more:
==so-far==
a wire came off the rpi gpio pinout.
i looked in the code and realized that it is supposed to go to GPIO11,
reattached it but still wasn't working, even though confrimed opendoor.py
was being called
then i shorted past the relay that gpio11 goes to and the door buzzed.
we dont have a multimeter so i can confirm if gpio11 is going high, or the
relay is burned out.
can you help please?

i'll try to stop by radio shack this afternoon, and we can work on it tonight at uC
hacking if it hasn't already been resolved

I have a multimeter, but I might not manage to get it to sudoroom until
Friday. But someone else can get it from me elsewhere.

I re-attached the wires and it's working again.
Also: Hol donated a multimeter (!)
Also also: We need a nice little box that can contain the raspberry pi and
a power supply and maybe a few other small things and which looks nice and
can mount on the wall. The craziness with the imac and cardboard box and
wires everywhere is no good. Someone bring a suitable wall-mountable box
(urban ore?) and someone else (maybe me) will make it all pretty.
