A button is one of the simplest interfaces available.  If it takes
over 2 months to get a button interface through the bureaucratic
system, how long does it take for an interface with complexity?

TinyOS 2.0 contrib, on a separate note, has license restrictions and
process controls that make it unappealing to corporate users (and was
designed without input from corporate users)...
