Moving things on a bit....

I am not sure what the next step should be but to get things moving I
would like propose we pick a device and make a trial unit. Rather
than picking something with a lot of coding like the lighting
controler lets start with something simple. What should we start
with ?

I have done a lot of reading and would like to try using the RCM2200
as the base micro, the main reason is cost at 34USD for large volume
they are cheap. I think that most of the devices could be implimented
on them (perhaps not lighting controler ramping up 4 channels takes
up a lot of clocks)

The RCM2200 sits on top of a user board, each device could have a
different user board. It is also very small and will easly fit in a
uk single gang box.

I think that with a device built we can see where the problems are
and develop a solution.

I think we need to decide who wants to to what, from what i
understand we need the folowing:-

Hardware Group.
Board design. people who can produce a board design
PCB production. people who have etching equipment
PCB assembly.
Software group
System coms design. XML
TCP/IP coding
Sub system coding
motherbord coding

What do people think ?

John
