[clug] BBC writes on camera on Raspberry Pi

[steve jenkin]

Thought this might be of interest to the group:
<http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-22508667>

Why I think this is of importance (not for the technical info):
 - the source, Mark Colvin retweeted this link (from mark pesce)

 - that Main Stream Media is talking about a *linux* device built for
hacking.

We may have skipped "The Year of the Linux Desktop", but we've had the
decade of the Linux Server, the half-decade of Linux smartphone/tablet
and now "the linux DIY hack thingy".

This line in the BBC article struck me as "the Why":

 "But I still found the whole lengthy process rather satisfying."
