The AutoM8it plugin si still available, but now only from my site...on
AutoM8it page is not available anymore.
The interest for the AutoM8it infrared plugin version was not big enough to
make me further develop it, so it is still at the 1.3 verion.... this can
be
changed in the future, if enough interest..

Put me in the loop too please.... to see if and how we can integrate all
the
things (FirM, InfraX and your application).

By the way.... the name InfraX is used by someone else for a different type
of equipment, so I can be forced to change the name again. If you have some
ideas taking into consideration the development of InfraX as another  Home
Automation framework, but with the following in mind:
- keep it is as small and simple as possible (i intend that the basic
application with my plugins included to stay for ever under 1MB (including
DLLs, configuration files, etc.), in order to be able to run it on small
systems
- as much user friendly as possible
- as many features as possible..( this is cool ..:-))
- a very fast and good user suport...any user question to be answered in
the
same day if possible..
- regular updates (in the future maybe an automatic update too), a minimum
of one or two per month..

Thank you all,
Dan
