Do we really need this phase? I.e. is ubus the best solution? We at WeIO (http://we-io.net) used something that we called IoTPy (https://github.com/nodesign/weio/tree/master/IoTPy), but I think today besto solution is to use Intel's MRAA (https://github.com/intel-iot-devkit/mraa) in combination with UPM (https://github.com/intel-iot-devkit/upm). This way user get a bunch of drivers for various sensors and actuators in different language bindings. > > (II) > Once sensors and actores are available via the local ubus instance, > a ubus rpc proxy which operates as a GNUnet service shall be implemented > to allow secure and privacy-aware pairing of OpenWrt/LEDE devices and > remote access to ubus using GNUnet. Looks like a sane solution to me. I have started some months ago working on a centralized solution called Electrolink - https://github.com/projectiota/electrolink. It uses MQTT or CoAP to pack and send RPC messages in JSON or CBOR. Currently we are working on MRAA<->Electrolink integration. For decentralization - this is worh loking: https://safenetforum.org/t/maidsafe-and-gnunet-comparison/2779. Maybe some of scalable blockchain solution (Tendermint? Blockstack?) are also worth investigating. Telehash (http://telehash.org/) looks like a great candidate also.
