Node notes:
- NodeCommunitecture has been offline since late December, they were in the midst of an office move, just pinged them by email to see what their status is, if we can help
MerakiMR24 -- all 25 newly received MR24's have been flashed to a generic build of LEDE, including the "factory" recovery (press the reset button during boot to get a generic initramfs system for recovery). This flashing process necessitated opening the case for each device to connect to the serial console and executing a kermit script (which was not 100% reliable, but close enough, and a big improvement to the cut/paste done previously). It is hard to see ever needing more of these devices than we now have in the stockpile, but it was also hard to turn them down for the price.
