+Our lunalcd2 board built in 2021-08 (see ../lunalcd2 directory) was a success
+for the most part, but there is one issue: there is an elastic force originating
+somewhere in the area where the LCD module's FPC tail is folded under the body
+of the module, this force acts against both gravity and the adhesive, and it
+pushes the bottom of the LCD module upward, away from the PCB.
+
+Seeking to prevent this cosmetic problem (and possibly one of mechanical
+reliability) on our upcoming Venus board, we got a little metal bracket
+custom-made for us that is designed to hold the bottom of the LCD module in
+place.  The present lunalcd3 PCB is a copy of lunalcd2 with the addition of two
+holes matching those in the bracket, thereby allowing this bracket to be used
+to hold down the LCD module.
