They haven't kept entirely silent. They put a post on the issue up here: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fblog%2F1800-u...

It looks pretty similar to the Ninja Block ninjablocks.com and Smart Things platforms (both of which have expansion boards for Arduino / Pi).

It's Romansh not Romanian !!! a Rhaeto-Romance language descended from the Vulgar Latin spoken by the Roman era occupiers of the region. It is closely related to French, Occitan, and Lombard, as well as the other Romance languages to a lesser extent.

Given you put Arduino like options on the table you should checkout the Open Source Ninja Block ( http://ninjablocks.com/products/ninja-blocks-kit ). The Ninja Block (with it's free cloud service) lets you create rules that use it's sensors to send you alerts (via SMS/Email/Social Network etc). For example "if motion is detected, send an SMS". Included in the kit is a Motion Sensor and door/window contact sensor. You can get more sensors off the Ninja Blocks website. The Ninja Blocks community seems to also be growing strong: http://forums.ninjablocks.com/ If you want to tinker more, inside the Ninja Block is an Arduino compatible uC and an embedded Linux computer running Ubuntu.
