[OpenTRV-dev] Possible basis of OpenTRV hub?

[Damon Hart-Davis]

A mother board containing the Pi plus the circuitry for one of our boards plus, say, a nice display plus laptop USB connection and WiFi/wired network could be a lovely thing.

Who’d have thunk it: entire Linux machine as plugin extender card for a small micro controller system!  %-|P

Anybody knows whether he is still developing it? See here: http://www.mike-stirling.com/redmine/projects/timestore
