-==== Next Steps ==== +==== Goals for this week ==== 
-  * Work towards implementing the board with a slower clock and no 5V voltage regulator +  * Print housing on Saturday 
-    * Slower processing speed +  * Look at the board with Firmware 
-    * Less power consumption +  Next steps toward programming ​the board and debugging
-    * Able to gather data at least +
-  * Look at data sheets to be sure parts can operate on a 8MHz clock and 3.3V +
-  * Look into how to remove the 5V regulator so that the board will still work +
-  * Code the currently working ​board with Firmware +
-    currently planning to deploy ​the board that is already working, however this board will not last long without sun +
-    * come up with solutions to allow the speed without the power consumption+
  
 === Reminders ==== === Reminders ====
-  * Deployment early October (October 2nd), so try to make current ​board operational.+  * Prepare questions for Allie about programming the board
