I intend to use as pristine sources as I can get, although the first few hours of my project will be devoted to familiarizing myself with the Pi.
I will also probably have to install some form of Avahi on a PC at home to test operation.

== Project Plan ==
<!-- Note: Each student must have unique goals. These goals may be ''related'' to other students' work, but must be ''distinct'' and ''attainable'' regardless of the state of the other students' work. For example, under the umbrella of one project title, one student may work on packaging a piece of software and another may work on documentation, or one may work on solving one bug and another on solving another bug, but two students must not work on the same bug or depend on the other students' work in order to be able to complete their own project. -->
