    I'd also like to state my thanks for keeping this site and all it's resources up. I visit here weekly to help me build and continue on my projects on my own single-man company. I hope to one day be able to contribute back to MySensors instead of just making a living out of it!

      Yes, I hope this will be the best solution. It woud be a pity to see all the collected information on the web/forum got lost. The waybackmachine is not the best option.

        @Shirkit I agree. I have a lot of unifinished projects. Most of them still on breadboards. But as we will do a big reno on the house I need to finish them. Pretty sure I wouldn't be able to figure out how they worked if I store them in boxes during the reno. I have some light projects, A garden controller just an improved version of what was posted many years ago. And some more generic things that are probably not interesting to most people. And I also have a hub node the allows you to use cheap rf modules from AliExpress to control rooms very easy. I transformed a for channel remote module to a 15 button remote.

        Without this site I wouldn't be able to keep making MySensors stuff

          I hope the project won't be buried due to the fact that the protocol is the basis of nippy devices (https://nippysmart.com/) I also hope that the development of mysensors won't be directed in 2 directions - one commercial only for nippy - the other for all the rest, which could result in the two versions diverging so much that they will be incompatible and the second one will simply be buried.

            Hi, I'm glad CodeGarage is taking over! Please are there any updates since January what's happening? The GitHub repo hasn't gotten commits for over a year. Thanks!

              Thank you @CodeGarage , you really thrive !

              As for the suggestions, i would say most important point would be to look at the project code base.
              I guess the development branch has quiet evolved since the 2.3.2 release.

              Next would be to sort the features and decide a roadmap for mysensors because the project can live only if it evolves

              Long live MySensors!

                @hlehoux As I understand the limitation of the packet size is by the NRF radio. Maybe stop supporting NRF, so that we can get a bit bigger packet size. That would help my current project where I'm using MySensors as a transport layer. I know that is easier with wifi. But I want to use mysensors.

                Never mind: If I hexify everything, I can squeeze in all I need so far.

                  @TheoL I wish nRF will be supported for longer time. Maybe just be free to specify the payload lenght instead ?

                  But I am with you on wishing for MySensors protocol over wifi with extendable lenght.

                    @fsgraz As an alternative to MySensors using the nRF24 radio, look at the work that tmrh20 has done. I have used this code and found it works well enough. It's lower level than MySensors. I haven't tried to connect it to Home Assistant, but I think a determined person could make this happen.

                    I would say it doesn't have the support that MySensors ha,s being only one person, but there isn't much support here anymore. :(
