Our discussion was as follows in F2F meeting in AMS.


The release perspective, Arduino/iOS(MacOS) are not tested. But Jenkins 
perspective Arduino/iOS(MacOS) builds are verified.

If there is any issue in these platform build (especially Arduino), remove this 
build from Jenkins verification.

Otherwise keep it until iotivity-constraint to be released in public for 
Arduino case.

We are still open for iOS build submaintainer.

It was never certifiable before, and not fully working either (e.g., security 
never worked), so any jenkins CI ?testing? just slows down the builds for 
everything else without any real value.

We just don?t want to destabilize the source until after 1.3 releases and then 
we can do clean up.

I am not sure if I follow the plan.. Arduino is still part of the 1.3 release 
but isn't going to be tested anymore?

The decision was made after discussion on the mailing list: Arduino support is
being removed from the IoTivity Standard. If anyone wants to revive it,
they're welcome to do so in Constrained.

Intel's research shows no one develops products with Arduino. They use it for
early proof-of-concepts, then throw everything away and rewrite the code (no
code reuse) when going to actual product prototypes.

At most, Arduino gets used by hobbyists for one-off implementations in their
own homes. So it's worthwhile to make it work, but not at the expense of real
products.

I agree.
