News: gboard can now use an external editor (nano.) Check out the help from
within gboard for more info. Now it needs a pager... and other thing of
course.

Folks, gboard has been updated to use a different filesystem layout, and
another compatible client has been written in Lua. We're testing a "federated"
setup over at a a few other servers (in the circumlunar.space domain) and
there may be interest in federating grex in... this would increase the
activity in gboard (or "Telem" in the Lua case.) The new gboard isn't in place
here at grex, but it could be- or it could be replaced with telem.
Is there any interest in sharing boards with other systems?

A federated bulletin board system with a shell interface sounds like a great
idea.

I'll ask the folks over there if we can bring grex in the loop. As you already
know, gboard uses a filesystem setup vs. a database; we're using rsync to
federate. Would we run this under the gboard user, or would there be another
preference?

Probably the gboard user would work.... Let me ponder it.
