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.
