I was the hardware & firmware engineer behind the MooresCloud Holiday

As MooresCloud is no more, I've created this page with some technical reference info for Holiday owners.
Hardware wise, the only issue we had with shipped units was a higher than expected failure of the USB nano WiFi adapters based on Realtek 8188CUS.
Replacement adapters sourced from Netgear (WNA1000M) or EDUP (EP-N8508) were found to be reliable (also based on the RTL-8188CUS).
There were a small number of boards with poor solder joints on the USB connector, but I believe all were caught at the factory and reworked for spares.

• Ben's "Coding with the Moorescloud Holiday" API docs & examples
• Froosh's "Rebuilding the Holiday" - short form notes for updating to a "modern" Linux kernel
• Justin's enhanced Holiday code - with hyperdrive (or something...)
• Some C# demo code to control Holiday - untested
• Some PHP demo code to control Holiday - untested
• Weather on your Holiday? (via Aussie BOM) - untested, and it is in perl, yuk! (although it is some of the neatest perl I've ever seen)
• Search GitHub for "moorescloud" - might be something I missed, ignored, or something new! :)
