Yes, I support the dropping of IoTivity for Arduino but not immediately.


"Iotivity does not support Arduino" sends the wrong message. 

n  Yes., until we have some constrained releases, better we keep it.   



We can find sub-maintainer till then if that is a major problem.

As platform support project architect/maintainer, I am calling the question?



I have previously heard arguments on this list for dropping Arduino support in 
IoTivity itself, which I will summarize as:

1)      IoTivity-constrained is designed for this use case and should be used 
instead

2)      Some code paths have not been maintained for some time

3)      There is no IoTivity submaintainer for Arduino



I have not yet heard arguments to keep it.   So the question is: 

should we drop Arduino support in IoTivity and instead refer Arduino developers 
to IoTivity-constrained?

yes, but no.  we should drop support for the sdk in question, but not for 
Arduino per se.  "Iotivity does not support Arduino" sends the wrong message.  
It does support Arduino (101 at least), using iotivity-constrained.  It's 
partially a messaging/marketing issue, imo.
