Second developer/maintainer needed #414

pszafer commented 2 months ago

Hi all,

I'd like to ask for help in developing this component. I don't want to abandon this project, there are many users of it and I don't want to abandon anyone.

The best would be the person with access to Easycontrol device. I have access only to RC300 device; I, myself, don't own any Bosch device. It's getting harder to get things fixed.

I don't have enough free time to make it work smooth for all type of devices; I developed this component 6 years ago and in Home Assistant world is like century.

HA make changes too frequent lately for me to make it working after every update. I can spare my time to teach somebody how I organized this project and if possible in time I'd like to make this project goes into Home Assistant Core as regular integration.

Actually I would like to propose myself as a maintainer here but only later, at the moment I think that I would be rather unsuitable because

I know very little programming .I'm just learning Python.
I really don't know anything about home assistant logic for plugins.
i own an easycontrol but that alone does nothing for me. I would rather see myself as a maintainer in 2-3 years.

I'd be interested in helping out.

I've worked with python professionally for about 4 years at this point.
I have worked with async code in the past
I am studying Computer Science at a University currently
I have access to a Buderus Logamatic TC100.2 which is Easycontrol if i remember correctly. I also have a KM 200 which is currently not in use.

I have however not worked with Homeassistant and I dont have a lot of experience with open source work. So there would be a bit of a learning curve

I can also help out on the Home Assistant side (currently maintaining the HA BMW integration). Have a CT200 so will look if I am at least able to review/test some PRs!
