Hi,

I want non IoTivity devices to talk to OIC devices and vice versa. The protocol 
my non OIC devices are using is currently not integrated in mainline IoTivity, 
but I also want to integrate with ZigBee in addition and others if they are 
available.
With IoTivity 0.9.2 I created a protocol plugin with the code located here: 
service/protocol-plugin/ in addition I created a small plugin manager using 
this interface.  In IoTivity 1.0.0RC3 this code was removed and I see a plugin 
directory for ZigBee in plugins/, but it looks like ZigBee is hard coded into 
the code, "grep zigbee plugins/src/ -ri" returns many results, so it looks like 
I have to modify the plugin handler code to add my plugin. The commit messages 
removing service/protocol-plugin/ says that I should use "Resource Container" 
now it has the same functionality as the old protocols plugin.
What should I use to integrate my bridge to a non OIC protocol?
I think none of these implementations implement the bridge like it is defined 
in the "OIC Smart Home Device Candidate Specification" 0.9.9 section 8 "OIC 
Smart Home Bridge Device", which already solves some of the problems I had with 
my bridge and IoTivity 0.9.2.

It would be nice if someone could help me, I think bridges are very important 
in the beginning to integrate all the old devices with IoTivity and the 
consumer can still use his old devices and buy new OIC based devices. If 
someone can only answer half of the question it would still help. ;-)
