I confirm that without thread everything works fine !

Yesterday we tried our current tip of the 0.5.6 branch:
http://hg.ninux.org/hg/olsrd-0.5.6-mdns/graph

and using the init.d (-nofork enabled) olsr works fine and also the
mdns-plugin (without threads!) works fine ! :)

If somebody wants to try it on OpenWRT here is our modified olsrd
package for the build root:
https://svn.ninux.org/ninuxdeveloping/browser/packages/olsrd
And here directions on how to compile in the OpenWRT buildroot
http://wiki.ninux.org/olsrd-mdns

Now I will continue with testing and code clean up and of course documentation.

Is possible to have this plugin included in the mainstream in the future ?
