OSIE-2 PUCK report template

One end-product of our OSIE-2 PUCK project will be a technical report. The report will incorporate information from each of the PUCK test-beds. I propose that each test-bed submit the following information.
 
What do you all think about these suggestions?
 
 
1. PUCK header utilization
Which elements (if any) from the PUCK header does your system utilize?
 
2. PUCK payload description
What do you store and and what does your system host retrieve from the PUCK payload area (assuming that you use the payload)
 
3. PUCK “detection” algorithm
How does your system detect the presence of a PUCK-enabled instrument on a serial port? E.g. does the system host periodically interrogate the port, or have you implemented a manual utility that interrogates the port?
 
4. Approximate effort to integrate PUCK into observatory
 
5. Suggested changes to PUCK v1.3 protocol
 
6. Demonstration procedure
How were instruments plugged and unplugged from the system? Was one instrument replaced with another, etc
 
7. Assessment of PUCK utility in your test-bed
