Hi Rob,

first welcome to the project : )
As @Christofer Dutz sometimes states, if you do it, then its on the roadmap : )
From the currently most active contributors, I think nobody has it in its 
focuse (we do not and AFAIK chris also has nothing with B&R yet).
Although we would love to have it in there, of course.

So If you want to contribute here, we would really welcome it and try to 
support you as good as possible.
Another possibility (if its for a company) is to find someone who implements it 
for you.
Currently the only person I know for that Job is Chris __
He has already done it (part of the deal then is, that its contributed back to 
the Project).
So possibly this is also interesting for you, if you have time constraints.

Julian

PS.: Funny side note, even we as heavy contributors payed Chris once to help us 
to implement a driver (DF1 / AB-ETH that was)

    Hi there.
    Do you plan to support a driver for B&R plc?
    
    I'm looking to read data directly from the B&R plc using the plc4x source
    kafka connector. The Kafka part is clear to me and have experience with
    Kafka, but connecting to PLCs is a new world for me. From what I understand
    my B&R plc will support opc-UA but going direct to B&R protocol sounds
    better. Currently we use a SCADA tool to connect to B&R and I'd like to
    replace with an open source approach to read/write data to PLC.
    
    If there is no integration to B&R for plc4x then I'd like to help. I'm new
    to the world of PLCs but I would be willing to help in any way if i could
    get a little direction.
    
    Thanks
    Rob
