The webcam went through a period of dangling down in the window, being offline because of said dangle, and just all together ignored.

Well, I'd found my cable stapler the other day and took a brief break this morning to remount the camera, and staple the cable (the cause of dangling when blinds would go up/down.)

So, I expect it to be pretty regular from now on. Although, it looks like the focus could be fixed.

The permit was approved and it's official. It's progressing from rumor to reality. It's about time!
