std::thread is already a part of c++ standard, so the old openthread library is not need any more. do you have plan to remove openthread from future version ?

The OSG is in maintenance mode now, the key goal is to make sure it's reliable and supports existing applications, changing major components will break lots of end user code.

If you want to adopt latest tech then the VulkanSceneGraph may be more appropriate - it's C++17, Vulkan and uses std::threads.
