Hmm interesting. I gotta play around with Dashboard. Did you get OBT2 working 
on Libre? Libre works fine for me but I can't seem to get the extention to 
install. Something you have to do to Java.

If anyone have a current info how a VO user interact with dashboard, I would 
very much be interested.

Thanks!
