I have a homeseer plug-in for comfort which supports remote 
connectivity through Linux (ie. you can plug the comfort serial port 
into a linux box, and it will talk to homeseer running elsewhere on 
your network). Once my comfort comes back from the menders I will 
modify this code to support xAP. When Stuart has finished the 
corresponding xAP connector for Mr House, the pieces of the jigsaw 
will all slot together nicely, and Comfort will talk to Mr House & 
vice versa.
