Root directory of the kitchen kiosk project.  It works like this:

kiosk.py is the main entry point.  It has two jobs: start up a chooser
thread that picks what the kiosk is currently showing by moving a
symlink called current.html in the ./pages/ directory.  It has a kinda
crazy semantic for doing this:

  1. it looks for all files that look like [name]_[weight]_[staleness].html
  2. it sees if there are any trigger conditions (e.g. movement on a webcam)
     and, if so, it choose the appropriate page (./pages/hidden/*)
  3. otherwise it does a weighted random selection based on [weight], as
     long as [staleness] is not too stale.

The other main thread in kiosk is a renderer thread which knows how to go
out and fetch information from the web somewhere and make a page with a
filename of something like [basename]_[weight]_[staleness].html.  It makes
a bunch of these off in ./pages and refreshes them at periodic intervals.
All of this code is in renderer.py and it's kinda ugly.
