This thread is intended for discussion about the official drivers in progress list. Don't post to the official sticky thread, post here if you have comments about it or want to get something added and so forth.

I'm also working on the following...
Jandy RS Series Pool Controller
Resconsys (RCS) Serial Thermostat Driver
When I'm done with those, I'll be revisiting the Vantage lighting control driver that Dean started a while back.

My driver is for AdvantageAir - I got a pre-release of the commands under a NDA
In the pipeline is a GE 90-30 (PLC) driver with lots of help requried from Rohan.
I have a couple of one way drivers that are working but need some development into two-way - Topfield pvrt 5000 (required an app written for the box) and Humax 5400 with ToH (I dont think this will ever be two way).
Then there is the X-Box with HTML scraping to be done when I have learnt CML.

Just curious what this driver would do Mick?

Just adding to that ever-growing list of support for stuff that nobody but myself is using... ;-)
Maybe over time one or two of these will attract someone to CQC that wouldn't have come over otherwise... Meanwhile, I'm just happy I found someplace where it was actually feasible to write drivers for all these contraptions...

The more drivers the better...I had a few Krell Audio drivers made for my system and while I doubt anybody is using them but me I imagine one day someone will stop and look at CQC and say "Wow they have Krell drivers I need"

an xbox running XBMC (XBOX media center) has a web interface that allows control of the box remotely (as opposed to the IR remote). It will display the media accessible by the xbox without the need for the CQC repository as well as control over transport functions etc.
The API was actually written to allow scraping as the retun messages are very simple text strings.
I personally use the xbox as a media center only. It has never had a game played on it.

I have a working LG LCD/Plasma Panel driver that does everything but direct tuning (but you can emulate tuning by sending "keystrokes").
I am about to contemplate a Honeywell Enviracom (communicating thermostat/zone controller) driver. They have a C api, and the sample app shows the traffic, should be rather convenient for debugging.

Once I get the 2.0 beta out, I'll be looking to get all of the drivers that are ready to go and get them into the release and documentation pages done and all that.
