I know at this moment it's a big no-no, but would it be technically possible to port SDK to run on those tiny Linux devices such as Linksys NSLU2?

It's fully functional server in a tiny box, tiny power consumption, and with huge community that does wonders with them: http://www.nslu2-linux.org/

making it to run different server applications replacing their big fat PC with this box. 

Resources-wise it got weak CPU and little memory, but people managed to squeeze even SlimServer (everybody  heard of Squeezebox, right?), which is by no means a little application: it runs MySQL, webserver, and a complex data streaming + DSP application.

Generally, almost nothing is impossible :)  We're actually working on a redistributable .NET Micro Framework implementation of the SDK--so we're definitely thinking along those lines.

Yeah, that's good, but those kinds of boxes usually run Linux... I don't really know whether they can handle full-blown Mono with .Net application on it, so Linux SDK with USB support might be required. This, however would be a true breakthrough for z-wave... 

We have had a number of requests for porting the SDK to various platforms but this is honestly the first in this area.

That said, please PM me offline with more details...
