Fantastic, thank you so much for your work!

Should we work on some code to do IR code conversion, to be crammed into the wiki?

Unfortunately, I don't want to take this option. If the guy isn't willing to provide the code for what amounts to a coversion utility....

....that's beyond retarded.

we might as well write it ourselves.

Fucking greedy people,

If it's free, why not just go the OSS model and give the code?

Tschak, zaerc, others: whuddaya think about openremote.org? From what I can read on their site, it seems that the project is not very mature and that implementing their API in LinuxMCE would be a considerable effort. I don't see any advantages compared to what's being done in LinuxMCE.

I'll reserve my opinion on openremote until it gets more mature and I play around with it more... My understanding is they have similiar goals as we do (complete home automation). They also have financial support from Marc Fluery (JBoss fame). I plan to meet with some of those guys in the coming weeks/months (one of the main guys lives near me).

I think they also have an Amsterdam meeting somewhere end of this month.

Yes, they do.
