[sudo-discuss] vending machine is working!

[Jake]

as I said in February, the vending machine is basically at operational 
status:

and as I said in April, I now know how we will perfect the motor homing 
issue:

but for now, it works well enough that I was able to dispense one of the 
candy bars in the machine without cheating and opening up the machine.

I didn't even need to power cycle it, the beaglebone in there was just up 
and working already!

thanks to rcsheets who stocked the vending machine with delicious candy 
bars!  products 1030, 1031, and 1032 by the way

let me know if you want to help get the vending machine working better.

we need simple hardware work, complex hardware work, and software work!
