What IS on the roadmap: the bridge as zigbee _repeater / hop_, simular to what’s already implemented with zwave.  
As soon as it’s implemented, you’d find the bridge as an ordinary repeater/router in the zigbee page: [https://tools.developer.homey.app/tools/zigbee](https://tools.developer.homey.app/tools/zigbee)  
It becomes part of the Pro zigbee mesh, and zigbee only.  
It will not relay zigbee signals through wifi.

Use version numbers, please. ‘Last week’ is not specific.

When you referred to these release notes:  
'_…continue our effort to bring new features …_ ’  
It doesn’t say ‘_new features of this release are:_’
