Also Present: 
Rodrigo Hernandez, Guillermo Damke
Problems: 

A few of sequence observations stopped unexpectedly after taking the first exposure. There seemed to be some sort of timeout error waiting for a command. Nearing the end of the night, we encountered more and more of these aborted scripts, most often ending early at the start or end.
