RE: [upnp-sdk-dev] Patches: Remove ithread.h header and change users over to pthreads

[Dan B. <dba...@us...>]

As you have already surmised, ithreads.h was used to port the SDK to a
couple of non-POSIX operating systems, which, for licensing reasons, =
could
not be included in the open source release. As far as this project is
concerned (separate from what Intel was doing), it no longer serves a =
useful
purpose and should probably be phased out. The API changes, however, =
should
not break compatibility, at least as far as libupnp1 is concerned. =
Anything
that would make applications not compile and/or run against the SDK =
should
be postponed until a libupnp2 release.

I think we should have a decision from the maintainer.
