Keeping it in RAM would be hard I think since embedded devices don't have
a lot of it, depends on the amount of data collected.
Anyway, that's all in software.
It looks to me that owfs/1wire can be treated like any other proc system
(unless I misunderstood) so gathering the data is quite easy.
I will start by gathering the hardware and mounting that together and will
see about implementation afterwards. (a lot of ways leading to Rome) I
will try to document my steps and will publish them on
http://www.minimumrisk.nl for the public. I would like to thank all of you
for your help and input so far and wish you all a happy 2007!
