Hi,

thanks for the updated info Jack.  oh I am glad to know that in a way the
open source is still being updated, I guess I'm getting different stories
from different groups.  By the way, great work on your UPnP book~!!  I have
a copy and I was very impressive by the work you've done.  In any case,
during my previous experience at the UPnP AV plugfest, the open-source sdk
miserably crashed every 5 to 30 seconds once it's booted.  My assumption is
that open-source sdk works fine among its own, but when working with other
implementations of UPnP stack, it's not very robust.  for example, one of
my debugging experience is that, the sdk assumes that everything in the
spec should be a 'given'.  If someone in the plugfest for some weird reason
is broadcasting its device with a required field that's missing
(serviceId), then it might just crashed the system.  Please understand I'm
not putting down the open-source but sharing some problems and insights.
