I am super-glad this is finally happening; I was getting close to starting it myself, given the rubbish options which are currently available for building a proper end-to-end home automation system.
However, I'm concerned about the openness of it. I'm like 99% certain that the only realistic way to get a system like this to work is a 100% open, unlicensed, freely-implementable protocol with absolutely no restrictions. It doesn't currently sound like that will be the case, which is going to be a problem.
Perhaps I'll be working on this after all…
