Systems, networks, devices and methods for developing, implementing, and sharing lighting schemata between controllable lighting networks are disclosed. A network (101, 601, 701, 801, 808) in accordance with the disclosure stores lighting schemata developed for the network in a remote data store (802). Other networks (301) access the remote data store to select existing schemata for implementation. Systems, networks, devices, and methods for sharing user preferences between controllable lighting networks are also disclosed. Networks according to the disclosure may access a shared remote data store (112) to determine a user?s preferences upon the detection, by sensors in the network, of the presence of the user. As such, individual lighting networks may make use of known user preferences or learned behaviors and environmental conditions to more efficiently adapt themselves to such behavior, preferences, or conditions.
