Hello!

By this year (initial release 7/15) Maxim released the DS28E17 [1] which is in 
my oppinion a game changer. This is (to my knowledge) the first time a 1-wire 
slave has been released that allows to connect any micro-proc (like 
Arduino/AVR) in a generic and easy way. Even though the DS2408 [2] (1-Wire 
8-Channel Addressable Switch) enables this as well I would not consider it as 
easy or simple.

The DS28E17 enables to implement any DIY slave imaginable for e.g. home 
automation like applications, segmentation and extension of networks, wireless 
connections/bridges, etc.

Therefore I would like to proppose to add support for the DS28E17:
1) generic interface as for any other chip supported by OWFS
2) bridge mode that allows to use a DS28E17 <-> DS2482-100 [3] combination to 
extend a 1-wire network (may be support DS2482-800 too)

I would like to open the discussion here and gather feedback, ideas and 
oppinions. Please contribute - thanks in advance!
