@marzima Congratulations on your successes in the smart home business and your recent partnership with Porsche, https://newsroom.porsche.com/en/themes/porsche-digital/porsche-digital-partnership-home-ix-smart-living-internet-of-things-14281.html
Working on Open Source projects requires giving up your own time and everyone here is appreciative of the time you have given, but it is also important for the community for contributors to be open about the time they can honestly dedicate to the project, with many competing and changing commitments.
As you will appreciate there is great interest in the Google Home integration, and I think I speak for many here if I can just ask you for an update, and when you will share what you have done so far, and also if you require assistance to complete development work, design, or testing.
Again thank you for your work.

Hi @all,
I am currently preparing the repos and switching all to official openHAB repos. In deed I been busy the last week and already wanted to start the beta test.
It looks like I cant put all in, since then the internas of the project and secrets will be visible.
So as an update:
The stuff gets prepared and beside the Thermostat control things work fine.
I know you all want to test and are ready to play with it. But keep in mind that I was running behind Google for months and I am not sure if you know how much time this took on my side, to be the beta tester of their platform wit openHAB.
So Iam late for a week now and hope to finish the docu. It is always a time issue and I was on the road all the week.
Hope you can understand and I try my best to have it finished.

Hi @all,
can you PM me please your gmail adress, so I can add you to a google group for Beta Testing?
So please be aware, that Google Assistant Smart Home Features are not that far as Alexa Smart Home API Skills.
So actually these Types are supportetd:
action.devices.types.LIGHT
action.devices.types.OUTLET
action.devices.types.SWITCH
I am currently on it to add the Thermostat support soon.
action.devices.types.THERMOSTAT
So you can easily TURN ON/OFF switchable items at home by our openHAB Action with Google Assistant.
I just wanna avoid unhappy faces and questions to me. The capabilities of our openHAB Action is bound to what Google offers, of course.
Please be aware: This is a BETA TEST. There objective is to test the basic functionalities and find possible problems
So as soon I have some PM from the interested people, I will post here how to make the OPENHAB TEST APP occur and which steps need to be done. I ve already created a testing group to add members into it for the test.

Iām also interested in integrating the google assistent SDK into my openhab config.
Currently have it running at boot on my Pi3, using the instructions google provides and a little help from https://gist.github.com/arevindh/ae50e18394625747e6beae600b10e374
Any idea on what would be the best approach? I skimmed through the topic and noticed the hue emulation didnāt work? Does anyone know if I can get my genuine Hue system to work with google Assistent SDK?
Hi @All,
thanks I received many beta tester messages. I think my inbox is full now and we have enough for initial tests. Please dont send me more messages 
I am adding those to test group and if I can get rid of a small Google problem, you should be able to test and play around soon.
I need to write a small howto for the testers, that you know how to set all up in the app etc.
Get back soon again.
Good Sunday

Nice canāt wait was going to help with test but looks like you got it
Hi @All,
I ve sent out the Beta testing invitation to join the google group.
PLEASE: Dont send me more messages for Beta Testing, since we have so many testers now. I alredy lost the overview 
At the moment we are facing trouble with the Google Cloud Account and the Google Support is checking it.
Shouldnt be something big, since it is Payment related.
As soon all is ready on the official openHAB Setup, I will post here a howto from the user perspective.
I am also extending the github repo with documentation, so that interested people can join and help contributing.
So hold tigth, soon we can hopefully test together
