Bugme, sounds interesting. I'll have to take a look at it. A couple of features that come to mind would be the ability for staff members to extend/end sessions and also for the ability to have a reservation system in place for when all systems are full but there are waiting patrons. I'd also need to figure out some kind of print accounting system which I think should be possible with cups, just don't know how user (staff) friendly it would be. Is anyone thinking about using btrfs snapshots for public kiosks?
