we have some further developments on another branch (rollershutter and dimmer added).
As the pull request has not yet been executed can i merge those changes in the meanwhile?

can i merge those changes in the meanwhile?

yes, please :-) (i saw you did it meanwhile). Btw: for this initial contribution if won't be too relevant but it's definitely good practice to add comprehensive commit messages. It would be great if you could add more meaningful messages for future enhancements :-)

[paolodenti]

Thanks teichsta. we will do it for sure. As you point out, we are just in the first development version. For future fixes and add on, commit messages will be meaningful.

how should we proceed about the binding documentation in the wiki?
Should i wait for pull request completion before adding the documentation?
And how do i modify the wiki adding our binding markdown?

You can create a new page in the wiki by going here. Look at other pages for bindings as examples, and press the Edit button on one in order to see the markdown formatting its author(s) used (but don't save). When you are ready to share the documentation (i.e., you know the release it will appear in), simply edit the sidebar and carefully add your binding to the list at the correct point. Make note in your wiki page of what release it will first appear in.

@teichsta do you have any forecast about pull request execution? Thanks

Tested on production and all works fine. I hope this binding will be included as soon is possible :-)
