Troggle is the software which runs the the expo cave survey data management and website.
For earlier history see Website history.
Because Nadia asked nicely, we now have a rename form for uploaded files in wallets. This year we also have a 'create wallet' form.
In the potato hut the blue netbook crashed horribly during expo and although Mark Shinwell coaxed it back to life, repreated fsck means that it needs to be retired before next year. The netbook was running Wookey's carefully curated drivers for the replacement USB-WiFi antenna which restored reasonable internet access in the hut this year.
Too late for expo, but we now have a logbook entry creation and editing form running in a webpage. Hopefully this will reverse the trend in recent years for many fewer people writing up trips in the logbook and many fewer trip records in general. The whiteboard at topcamp is a wonderful thing, but it gets erased so we no longer have a callout book permant record of trips.
The online logbook data entry (typing entries instead of writing them in longhand) has been a great success and was used intensively duringt he 2024 expedition. Many, many glitches were discovered and fixed during expo. James Waite still manages to crash it when nobody else does and we don't know why.
