The form and POST processing can handle more than 3 pools dynamically scaling up to 20 - joeykrim
Thanks! I registered an account here so I can keep track of development. I hope to continue contributing code.
Project is great, definitely appreciated!

Still missing the prioritization of pools "on the fly" and buttons like Restart and Quit, as in old miner.php page.
I'm looking into this .. if you have a link to the miner.php you're referring to handy, could you post that?
Edit: think I found it for cgminer at least .. not sure if there is same for bfgminer? https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer/blob/master/miner.php
I'm new to all of this and takes a little bit to get up to speed!

...could you please add this features in the future:
* cpu usage
* cpu temperature
I started doing a little digging and figured I'd post my notes here. I'm not sure what MineForeman has in mind or is currently working on, but I don't think it should be *too* bad to add cpu Temperature and perhaps also cpu stats.
I found some info on how arch linux handles cpu temperature: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Raspberry_Pi#Temperature
Quote
Temperatures sensors for the board itself are including as part of the raspberrypi-firmware-tools package. The RPi offers a sensor on the BCM2835 SoC (CPU/GPU):
/opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd measure_temp
temp=49.8'C
Alternatively, simply read from the filesystem:
% cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp                
49768
Also, there is another project, quote earlier in this thread, that gives some great stats on cpu usage as well as many other aspects: https://github.com/imjacobclark/Raspcontrol
Perhaps we could include portions of that project? License for the project seems to allow that: https://github.com/imjacobclark/Raspcontrol/blob/master/LICENCE
