[BTicino/OpenWebNet] New openHAB2 binding ready for testing

Hallo,
a new milestone version of OH 3.0 is out today (3.0.0.M5) with some bugfixings for the official OpenWebNet binding that were already integrated in 3.0.0.M4 (see M4 release notes for a list).
The same bugfixes have been backported so they will be available in OH 2.5.11 too (not released yet).

Here I give you some information for the near future of the OpenWebNet binding:

  • the old unofficial (beta/testing) version of the binding, after popular demand, will be released in a final version with no expiration limit: it will probably be named 2.5.0.TESTING.
    This unofficial version will not be supported in any way in the future, will not be ported and will not work with OH3
  • the official 2.5.x version will receive backports of bugfixes, but no new features/enhancements (this is a policy that OH maintainers apply for all 2.5.x bindings)
  • for the official 3.0 version I am involving other volunteers to help develop it further

To know which features are most important for you, I invite you to respond to the following polls (will close the polls in 1 week).

Ciao,
Massi

POLL 2 - Regarding OH and the OpenWebNet binding, what is your plan for the near future (next 6 months)? (max 2 selections, only Basic+ community users can answer)
    • will stay with OH2 and the unofficial (testing) binding
    • will move to OH3 and the official binding, but only when feature XYZ will be supported
    • will move to OH3 and the new official binding ASAP, even if not all feature are supported yet
    • I am looking to other solutions
