     63We've been working on a couple different projects for the past few days. The biggest is v3.py, which is going to lead the robot to the access point with high confidence.

The third thing I've been doing is playing around with Makefiles and g++, which are slowly beginning to demystify.

     65One important observation I have made is that the ERSP sample code does not always compile with g++-4.1 (It spits out an "extra qualification error".

We need to change the CXX flag in each Makefile to g++-3.3, but once this is done the code compiles and runs.
