Jay,
Saw your post on the Rachio forum regarding these API issues. Spirited discussion. I learned a bit about the issues that you face with developing plugins for these internet connected devices. Seems like a local connection would make life easier for everyone. A bit disappointed that Rachio doesn't seem to be overly concerned or responsive to their users/developers. Hopefully it is just a learning curve on their part.
Thanks for your efforts to keep this working for us. Hope it's all working good when I turn sprinklers on again in about 4 weeks.
Jim
