Yes, as far as I know, the Z-Wave specification are available only for
"Z-Wave Lincesee", and I'm wondering if it may cause any IP issue for
the definition of the open specification.

Yes, I have to join my happiness to Francesco's one, I'm really
looking fordward to contribute either to requirements and to interface
specification! Moreover, IMHO, I believe that it could be one of the
best channel for spreading the name of AALOA among the OSGi community.
