The document summarizes a student project to create an electronic sign-up board for office hours. It will allow GSIs and students to manage office hour queues across devices using HTML5. Screenshots and architecture are presented, along with features like user login, queue management, and location-based search. Milestones include initial design, UI design, implementation, and testing by March 23. Competitors include Google Spreadsheets and Qminder. The goal is to improve mobility and immediate updating over traditional whiteboards for office hour management.
