The Zigbee Alliance's protocol license is GPL incompatible. They have been asked to fix it many times and won't. The simplest way to get Zigbee support on Linux is to buy a USB stick with an embedded SOC running proprietary code and interface to it. This project did initially start off as a Zigbee implementation before the license problems were known. Now it is is an implementation of the open 6lowpan standard. If OpenZware is reimplementing Zwave I hope the licenses are in order. I'm pretty skeptical that the Zware protocol has been licensed GPL compatible. Here is an open source Zigbee implementation: http://freaklabs.org/index.php/FreakZ-Open-Source-Zigbee-Stack.html The problem with it is that you can't ship it without paying money to the Zigbee Alliance. > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Cloud Computing - Latest Buzzword or a Glimpse of the Future? > This paper surveys cloud computing today: What are the benefits? > Why are businesses embracing it?
