Hi all, Some of you no doubt saw this on the MCN list. I think it would be good to link to the CollectionSpace project from this github page. What do others think? What does the project think? Chris Begin forwarded message: *From:* Nate Solas <nate.solas@walkerart.org> *Date:* July 16, 2013, 6:59:55 AM PDT *To:* Museum Computer Network Listserv <mcn-l@mcn.edu> *Subject:* *Re: [MCN-L] Museum Code Repository* *Reply-To:* Museum Computer Network Listserv <mcn-l@mcn.edu> We're actually just running chrome in kiosk mode with a few slight modifications (i.e. make the preferences read-only so it won't complain about opening last tabs, etc). We can get away with this, I think, because we don't have a keyboard. The touchscreen keyboard has been disabled, and I've spent a good while trying to break out of the browser and haven't been able to. We locked the OS and browser to specific versions and disabled automatic upgrades so we don't get any surprises that way. Actually, Bryan Kennedy and I will be giving a 30-minute talk on the very subject of HTML5 kiosks at the MCN conference in Montreal. I see you're in NZ and that's quite a journey, so feel free to ping me on the list if you have other questions I can answer. :) Nate On Mon, Jul 15, 2013 at 4:26 PM, Bernard Hamlin < Bernard.Hamlin@otagomuseum.govt.nz> wrote: Thanks for putting this up guys it is a great idea. I've got a question about the infowalls project from the Walker art centre (https://github.com/walkerart/infolounge_walls) : we have very similar touch screen applications done in .js and php so I was wondering how you end up deploying that kind of code to a locked down kiosk environment? We're using chrome as a shell replacement in windows and have tried some lockdown sofware ( http://shop.inteset.com/lock-down-windows-7-with-inteset-secure-lockdown) but I'd love to hear what other people are using... cheers Bernard Hamlin IT Coordinator |03|4747474 ext 840 bernard.hamlin@otagomuseum.govt.nz -----Original Message----- From: mcn-l-bounces@mcn.edu [mailto:mcn-l-bounces@mcn.edu<mcn-l-bounces@mcn.edu>] On Behalf Of Undeen, Don Sent: Thursday, 11 July 2013 3:12 a.m. To: Museum Computer Network Listserv Subject: Re: [MCN-L] Museum Code Repository Agreed, I'd be really interested to see if anyone is finding any use for the code we're currently putting up there. -----Original Message----- From: mcn-l-bounces@mcn.edu [mailto:mcn-l-bounces@mcn.edu<mcn-l-bounces@mcn.edu>] On Behalf Of Nate Solas Sent: Wednesday, July 10, 2013 10:12 AM To: Museum Computer Network Listserv Subject: Re: [MCN-L] Museum Code Repository I actually kicked this off a few months ago and was trying to find time to revisit it and pretty it up with a github page or something. No time. :) https://github.com/MuseCompNet/muse-tech-central Steve, get your project on github and link it up!

Many of us know that The Museum System does not have an API, so I built one for basic access to tombstone data and object packages. Given the growth of mobile devices that do not connect directly to databases, it seems that there is probably a sizable need among museums to access data via web services. Basically, I just want to say that it would be great if MCN has a code repository for museum-specific source code. There is a Tools & Research section, but I am not sure how to add to that. Thanks!
