I don't think OWFS (as a pure *software*) should address hardware specs. At 
least to the moment we'll implement the global hardware database we talked 
about last month.

An "owfs hardware compatiblity" in my view means, owfs knows the *semantics* 
of the certified board, e.g. like the humidity sensor board or the DS2408 
driven LCDs. For such boards, a logo program would be nice.

Things like connectors, wire layout etc. shouldn't be adressed by the logo in 
my view, as the software can't identify them and too many other specs for 
connectors exist. To be honest: For my boards, I will specify connectors 
myself, depending on the mounting situation.

Kind regards
