-Description: Command multiplexing server for DALI lighting buses
- Exposes a DALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface) bus to the
- local machine by interfacing with the Tridonic DALI USB adapter.
- .
- Multiple clients can connect to the multiplexer to send commands to and
- receive responses from devices connected to the bus.

+Description: daliserver
+ daliserver is a command multiplexing server for the Tridonic DALI USB adapter,
+ allowing access to a DALI bus from any USB-equipped computer that supports
+ libusb.  This package includes init scripts for sysvinit-based systems, or
+ systems that include a sysvinit compatibility layer.  Only one DALI USB
+ adapter is supported at a time by this package, and adapters cannot be
+ hotplugged.
