ottlukas opened a new issue, #581: URL: https://github.com/apache/plc4x/issues/581
In contrast to the already implemented S7 communication, the Profinet Protocol is a different Protocol with different feature set. In order to implement a Profinet driver it is required to become Member of the Profinet Consortium. This membership is ties with an annual membership fee. The ASF could become a member. The problem with this is however that the ASF doesn't become member in things that cost the ASF money. I have discussed this issue with the CEO of Profinet Europe and there might be an option for the ASF to become a member and someone else paying the bill. Only members seem to be allowed to advertise with the Profinet Logo and call their products Profinet Compatible. Imported from Jira [PLC4X-8](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PLC4X-8).
