Upcoming changes to domoticz

Hi all, The 'domoticz' package has a major change coming in the next release. Current version: 2022.1 Next version: 2022.2 This change only affects Z-Wave users. Upstream has decided to deprecate OpenZWave support and will instead support ZWave-JS through MQTT. There is a documentation page[1] that describes the changes and recommendations on migrating[2] your old Z-Wave device entries in Domoticz. Luckily you don't have to re-program the Z-Wave devices themselves as their configuration is held entirely on each device and in the Z-Wave controller. This will be a one-time pain, but the good thing is that ZWave-JS has more features and has lots of upstream activity. OpenZWave appears to be dead. If you're interested in testing this with 2022.1 you can do so today as MQTT support exists and I've tested it myself. Download the ZWave-JS-UI binary[3] and start it up. Then start up the MQTT service and follow the Domoticz wiki instructions.
