Hi Andrzej,

I did some testing with OOB last year.
See my branch git://git.infradead.org/users/cktakahasi/bluez.git
oob-displayyesno

About the API changes. MAYBE, Hash and Randomizer could be only
adapter properties.
For the remote Hash and Randomizer still not clear to me what is the
best way to allow external apps to set those values, but in my opinion
BlueZ should not know the OOB mechanism, only the capability is
enough.

Regards,
Claudio
