======Pentominos Feed======

The purpose of the Feed is to listen to apparatus waiting for incoming data and
then transfer it to a artefact data server. It consist three different
modules:

  * A deamon running main module which can be configured to receive data from one or more apparatus through a driver, obtain patient information through pidio and transfer the information to an artefact server.
  * A driver module implementing apparatus specific communication flow and control.
  * A library offering shared functionality between the drivers.

The software are supposed to be light weighted, flexible and easy configurable so that for example a thin client easily can be configured to communicate with one or more specific apparatus. Furthermore all the running clients should be easily monitored from a central point, so that failure on a client running Feed  can be handled from a central point.

Besides what is described above Feed also includes discovering and documenting the protocol of communication of the various apparatus.

=====TODO=====
==== Next Version ====
  * {{:uncheck.png}} Centralize root fs and config files.
  * {{:uncheck.png}} Review "Device drivers" and define a common skeleton.

==== Current Version ====
  * {{:check.png}} Error handling and logging when communicating with artefact.
  * {{:uncheck.png}} Rewrite devices makefile and fix cvs.

=====Notes======  
Look at on soekris05 in cat46:

err:feed:initialize_device:250 Error while initializing device: Could not get DTR status: Input/output error (../serialdev.cc:193)


==== Soekris ====
  * Install logrotation
  * Install local dns
