Hi Paul,

This is the right list for you.  Please start with a description of
what you want to accomplish.

Rather than:
"Is a local Rails Port the right technology for us."

Something like:
"We wish to map the tunnels and rooms in our laboratory any colony for
accurate tracking of insects and food."

Then the nice folks on this list can offer guidance on how others have
completed similar tasks.

Best regards,
Richard
