Okay so i don't know if you've been reading the noisebridge discuss list, 
but we've been talking about access all week.

I think we need to change pony.noise/gate to act the same as it does from 
outside noisebridge - so you need to enter the code (once per session) 
whether you're inside noisebridge or not.

the thing is, instead of the code changing every week, it should be that 
codes are only given out at meetings, where they can also be disabled.
Codes don't expire, but they can be killed any time if necessary.

who can work on this?  who is working on the keypad solution?

talk to me.
