    Hi Alan,
    I stumbled across your blog recently as I was doing some research on printers.
    I had a few questions and was wondering if you’d mind answering them? What’s the best way to reach you?
    Thanks!

    Hello Alan,

    Forgive me for this rather unorthodox way of getting in touch. I’m Zachary Smith, the CTO of Daintree Networks. We were at the last ZigBee Alliance meeting in Atlanta together, I think. In any case, Daintree, in addition to making the best Network Analyzer for ZigBee networks also makes an operating platform, called MeshOperator, that is designed to support deployments exactly like those required by Smart Energy. We try as hard as we can to stay out of the application space and instead provide infrastructure and tools for deployment, monitoring, maintenance and the other things required to keep a million HANs up and running. If any of this might be of interest to you, please let me know at the email address included in this post.

    Thanks,

    z

    Hi Alan -
    Completely randomly, you popped up in my dream last night… We were on some kind of weird, gigantic scavenger hunt (?!?)…

    I figured I would Google you and see if you popped up… and here you are. Or… here I am.

    Anyway — how’s life? Hope all is well on your end, and happy July 4!
    Chris
