This sounds useful. If you're doing this though, could you *also* add a push
button next to the door release that also closes the space? Potentially
going to be more accurate if people use it.

If it starts nagging me to open the space when I'm in the space and it's not
open, I'll probably unplug the speakers. "Open" implies that the space is
available for use by non-members because someone is in that the non-member
can be a guest of.

I'm happy to have a "last motion" on the SpaceAPI though, which would
indicate space usage while the space is not "Open".

Iain.
