[App_rpt-users] GPIO fan control script now available

[Marshall Oldham]

Scott, 

That is a very generous offer on your part, but wouldn't it be better to keep everything all in one place for folks to 
go use as a reference? Especially new allstar node owners? 

So, I will state this question again. Am I missing something? Why doesn't anyone want to use 
the official help site?  

If you go to the allstar.org webpage and click on the link that says "help" it will take you to the another page. 

If you click on "Links To Helpful Things Pertaining to this Technology" 

The first thing that comes up is "Asterisk/app_rpt project -- Lots of good documentation on the Asterisk app_rpt application"

You click on that link and it takes you to http://ohnosec.org/drupal/

So why can't documentation, information and scripts be posted on this website which was setup by the app_rpt creators? 

After all, isn't this site kind of the "Official" site for support? 

I don't think it's a good idea to have several fragmented websites with information when we already have the official one that is
pretty good. 
Having multiple websites will confuse new users on where to get information.
