What is involved with adding support for other types of Z-wave or Zigbee sensors? Will users always have to wait for support to be added by Securifi or is there XML or other types of configuration files which a knowledgeable person could use to configure a new device? Does it always involve some programming? What type of programming is involved? Will it use the announced SDK or will it require another Sensor SDK?

I am curious about this too!
Seems crazy for Securifi to have to actually have each device in their possession and manually add it! that will never end up supporting all Z-wave products..
Please give us the power to add them ourselves!

Just because a sensor isn't in their list, doesn't mean it won't work. That's just a list of ones that have been tested or reported working by users. I'm working on trying to shoehorn the Iris sensors (well, the smartplug and the window/door sensor) in. (and no, it won't be easy, but I knew that going in)

Yes for simple single input or output devices but not for more complex devices such as multi-sensors, thermostats, locks, etc.

When your A+ arrives (I saw from KS you're waiting on yours still), I suggest trying the sensor/thermostat/whatever first. :-)
