Hello all,

I recently started using Python to test a Bluetooth Push application prototype and everything was working great until threading. I wonder if someone knows how to start multiple threads of connectpush() with Obexftp running under Linux?
So far with the code below I have to wait until the first client connection gets close to start the next connection and I need to start many push connections at once.

The strange part is that the threads are working for obexftp.browsebt() method so I get push channels in every
thread or maybe it's because we don't need to accept or deny a connection to read a push channel in a Bluetooth device.

Thank you for your help

	cli.delete

	def __init__(self,mac):
