Hey Seth, I know there's been _quite_ the effort under the hood to make this product a reality and am curious if you would be open to writing a bit about lessons learned to help others learn about the research & development process.
If you're interested in a similar solution (albeit closed sourced and managed) that works in a non-cloud, fully off-line (re: internet) environment. Take a look at http://www.hubitat.com. It supports zigbee, zwave and wifi devices and has strong compatibility with the smartthings ecosystem.
