While I appreciate that this is not in line with the correct Zigbee name, I'm not super keen to change this. I don't mind changing the external facing names (ie text strings), but changing internal stuff like logging is potentially a pain as it has flow on effects to (for example) log processing scripts. I don't really think it matters that this is different to the Zigbee official name - and actually in theory Zigbee is trademarked and probably we shouldn't use it ;)

The styling ZigBee is used by all the external libraries and log processing scripts which is why it was used in the binding (since the libraries were written initially at the same time). At the time I was warned by the Alliance that I shouldn't use Zigbee as it was their trademark.

So, my preference is not to change this - or at least not to make code changes other than for external user facing strings...

OK, I'll not insist.
