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.

  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.
