But it was free right? Mine came in a box in the mail. I had no idea
what it was, or what I would use it for, and eventually threw it away
:(. I am thinking that we should replace the CueCat description with a
plug for another barcode scanner that works with Linux, the way that
Delicious Library sells a (very expensive) barcode scanner on their
web page. Can anyone make a recommendation for a (preferably cheap)
barcode scanner that works?
An organizational matter is that the new site no longer has Google
ads. I think it still has an Amazon link somewhere. And I think
Alexandria itself uses an Amazon code that belongs to Laurent
Sansonetti (right?). There are very small sums of money involved, but
we have no capacity to collect them, and probably don't want one
until/if the project grows larger. I am just pointing that out, as
there might come a time when something like a foundation would be a
good idea (far, far off, but I am very ambitious :)).
