It might be interesting to start working on integration with some of the other enterprise tools listed on Farm Hack - a few I identified http://farmhack.org/tools/record-keeping-profitability-analysis-tool http://farmhack.org/tools/enterprise-budgets-lists-downloads http://farmhack.org/tools/open-enterprise-budget-organic-eggs http://farmhack.org/tools/oilseed-oil-meal-and-biodiesel-cost-calculator http://farmhack.org/tools/crop-planning-software GreenStart (www.greenstartnh.org) just had a recent meeting that recommended the expansion of the oilseed/biodiesel calculator to extend it to integrated small grain enterprises. I believe that this is something that we will be working on this year and would love to see integrated into a feed ration calculator for milling/sprouting and mixing home grown grains for poultry, hog and bovine feed.

Hi Joel You can see the most recent web activity including forums, open shop and tool activity on the home page - just scroll down a bit to see the what is going on. The subscription function on tools and forum should alert you to new content by e-mail. Most of the recent activity has been in the tools section for example...

This has been an item of considerable off-line dialog and the tech team and board is putting together a plan to both make it easier to get started and contribute, but also to make navigation and linkages between tools, events, people, organizations and related discussions be clearer and make more sense. We are all involved in building a prototype together for a better way to collaborate on open source projects - and all participation or lack of participation help tell a story about what is working and what needs to be revisited. I look forward to being able to bring these new features out to the community in the coming months. Thank you for your comments and contributions!

It would be great to get a tool wiki posted for this tool! It seems like a logical extension to some of the other environmental sensors that Apitronics http://apitronics.com/ is developing, along with the aerial imagery tools that are also evolving so rapidly http://farmhack.org/tools/ifarm-imaging-agricultural-research-and-management.
