[hackerspaces] RFC: security alarm and access control systems in use

[Altin Ukshini]

Hey guys,

We've recently put this in function:
http://www.prishtinahackerspace.org/haccsy-hackerspace-access-control-and-check-in-system/

It's an access control and check in system (2 in 1) based in ACON (from
Melbourne Makerspace)

Hope it helps someone, as I think it's well documented.

Cheers,
Altin
