[OpenTRV-dev] An Apology

[Damon Hart-Davis]

Hi,

No intention to profit at your expense in any way: I had no idea that this was something you wanted to sell, ie that what you were doing was another FOSS project.

Never mind, Bo and I can try to use in some other way the hardware that we have bought/built.  In the interim I'll push harder on the commercial route to get the OpenTRV boards built for the trial since time is pressing.

I entirely understand that you don't have any more time to spend on it, but Bo and I have already invested time and money in anticipation of it and that stuff is orphaned if we can't even see the code.
