lutron leap plugin was showing with a red dot in my plugins menu. attempting to reload produced an error complaining about missing zeroconf module.

running 'pip3 install zeroconf' seemed to fix, after that i was able to do a reload of the plugin from within Indigo, then was greeted by a configuration dialog.

it would be useful to have some info about the following topics in the README.md:

migration from / co-existence with "Lutron RRA2/Caséta" plugin

do you need to delete existing devices and disable the old plugin before setting up Lutron Leap plugin? will enabling the new one delete or mess up your old devices/settings or will it allow you revert?

under what circumstances might someone using Lutron RRA2/Caséta plugin want to migrate to LEAP - i.e., what are the potential advantages of LEAP? is LEAP newer and/or better (i presume yes to both)? i can read lutron's story about LEAP here, but am curious mainly how those benefits manifest to a Indigo plugin user - i tried to navigate Lutron's descriptions of their various protocols and products but very quickly got buried in the complexity.

in my particular case, all of my devices are already setup and working with the old plugin, with the only exception being that i can't seem to get battery level or low-battery warnings for my battery-powered devices (shades/remotes). so i am curious whether LEAP protocol might somehow help with that issue...
