No, what I mean is that if two or more plugins use the same i2c bus via different drivers it might endup in a conflict situation.
Sofar this wasn't an issue since all plugins (including mine) use the smbus driver. Adding another/extra driver accessing hardware at the same time is usually not the best idea.
At the moment I have my devPi connected to 5 i2c IO expanders (40 sip stations) and in the coming days will try to add an oled display and see if it works (or not).
