Issue #283 has been updated by Philipp  Buluschek.

I'm currently using it, and so had to make the required changes...

I don't believe it is the caller's responsibility to know the ZigBee detail 
that data is sent byte-order reversed. When the ZigBee Alliance publishes a 
manufacturer ID, it is like @0x1234@. Having the ID in the code as 
@byte[]{0x34,0x12};@ would be very counterintuitive. 

On the other hand, the ID is always 16bit unsigned, so we should use a 
corresponding data type. 

In @AbstractCommand@, a @null@ manufacturer ID indicates that the command is 
not manufacturer specific. Although, in general, using @null@ as a 
special-meaning value is ugly (IMHO), here it makes the code much simpler. All 
clients (the @Command@ implementation, but also the manufacturer specific 
@AttributeImpl@ and the corresponding @Subscription@) can just use one 
constructor and pass @null@ for standard Commands/Attributes and pass the ID in 
the other case.
In short: having a @null@ value to indicate standard conformance is convenient 
here - but so you cannot use a short or int instead. Maybe a DoubleByte or 
better still a domain specific "ManufacturerID" class would fit?

In @ZCLHeaderImpl@, the manufacturer ID must be sent in reverse byte order. 
<pre>
private byte[] createHeader(){
  ...
  newHeader[1] = manufacturerId[1];
  newHeader[2] = manufacturerId[0];
  ...
}
</pre>
