Thought I'd show you guys a little of what I've been working with.  So far, it's been very snappy and stable.

Got the fan speed controller and fans connected to switches working yesterday.  Still have motion detectors, generic relays, and the security system to do, but that shouldn't take that long.  Hopefully will have something out to play with soon.

As the original poster of the thread... everyone take a deep breath.
I don't mind Cy at all, and I generally appreciate his blunt approach.  Maybe it's an engineering thing.  That said, his comment was generally relevant to a "perceived market".  Either way, I'm making the driver.  I have lights, dimmers, and doors working already.  

Yeah, I sorta get that.  I'm an Apple developer and my entire immediate and extended family are entirely in the Apple ecosystem.  I didn't want to buy a whole bunch of Echo components when my family carries perfectly functional voice recognition devices (iPhone and Apple Watches) around the home already.  There's also the fact that the current Apple solution is widely available in other countries/languages already, where-as Amazon is lacking in that area.  What I'm working on will work without additional hardware in the mix (with the exception of needing a computer system (Mac, linux, Raspberry Pi, etc) to run homebridge on.
I'm developing this for myself... so it's going to get done whether or not there's a market for it externally.  But if folks are interested, I'll be more careful to think about "production level code" while I'm working on this.

I've been working on developing a homebridge plugin to fully enable HomeKit control/reporting of various Control4 devices.  Initially I'm supporting lights, dimmers, door contact sensors, window contact sensors, generic contact sensors, motion sensors and security systems (because that's what I have in my home).  I'm also working on a Control4 driver that will communicate with the homebridge plugin for all system devices without additional programming needed.
This will give the benefit of:
* Direct control of Control4 systems via HomeKit w/ Siri voice control
* Remote access (if you have home hubs such as Apple TV 4 or iPad) without 4Sight needed
* Direct integration of "favorite" devices into the iOS control center views
* Control of all Control4 devices via Apple Watch
SO....a few questions:
1) Does anybody out there have interest in such a thing?  
2) Are there folks out there that might want to beta test?
