Can anyone provide any more context besides a github that only has a multi-page code of conduct as the readme?

I thought homeassistant rolled out voice control features around the end of last year/start of this one.

This is going to be a new hardware product, so presumably something like an Amazon echo

like a voice assistant? that would be awesome for us - the Google nest va is profoundly dumb

Yes I have tried with the tiny m5 voice hardware and it's seriously useful. But the mic and speaker are so compromised that it only works within a few feet. I want something like the first gen Google Home device, that works from across the room, and doesn't constantly get false positives

Not sure that's a leak but couple of pictures available. Will add them later

Yes. Can’t wait to get rid of Google home.
