[OpenTRV-dev] An Apology

[Stuart Poulton]

Hi,

I wasn't explicitly talking about financial profit, but no matter.
I'll see how close the code is to being usable, it works but there are some
caveats and some prerequisites, I need to work these out.

If time allows I'll take a look tonight and make a copy of the code
available to Bo.

Stuart
