And for the record were also mentioned:

1) The possibility to use JOLIE also for the UPnP stuff. After all it's more 
or less a protocol which allows to expose services on the network. JOLIE deals 
just fine with other protocols of this kind, it would really only be a matter 
of adding the support for yet another protocol to JOLIE (epsilon how to handle 
the devices quirks).

2) Whatever solution is used as backend (JOLIE, GUPnP or something else), 
extending libsolid to also expose UPnP devices could be a good way to expose 
that to the KDE stack. API wise the UPnP model would map just fine with the 
current libsolid API. Internally it'd probably be some work, but API wise it'd 
be only a matter of adding a few interfaces to get access to the features of 
the UPnP profiles we want.

Regards.
