Agreed. The main priority should be to be complete the functionality needed
to be able to send and recieve messages to and from a variety of different
1st phase released MMS-Cs as per the current live v1 WAP MMS protocol
implementation.

>From this point of view adding complete support for SAR is one of the
current blocks and we have a good start in this area with the recent
submissions. Testing is obviously needed here and access to the amount of
software/hardware you have would be great.

Potentially I would also suggest a seperate cvs branch which can be
developed on without breaking the rest of the functionality. As most of us
here use the cvs version of Kannel as staging (or often as live), I'd like
to make sure that the changes don't stop the bug fixes.

Stipe - any thoughts?

I may be wrong, but I don't think the intention is for Kannel to be a
full-blown MMS Server / Relay, although that is a very interesting idea. The
issue is to be able to use Kannel as a WAP GW / Push Proxy for a third-party
MMS Server/Relay.

I have (briefly) tried out Kannel in the past with a Java-based MMS Server
prototype, and what needs to be resolved for Kannel to support MMS are
basically two issues:

a) Full support for SAR. There seems to be some progress on this issue.
b) Support for some mechanism in order for Kannel to send the MMS server the
MMS sender's address.

That is how far I got with Kannel. There may be other issues that I'm
unaware of yet. BTW, the latest MMS spec proposes SOAP as the MM7 protocol.
The protocol on MM4 is SMTP. I can also help out with testing, since I have
access to several MMS-C versions.

This is indeed very interesting, and I'd love to see full MMS support in
Kannel.
Unfortunatly, I don't know much about the current MMS infrastructure in
Kannel. I understand that it uses wapbox, but over what bearer - sms through
a normal SMSC ?
Can Kannel do MM7 over SMTP ?

Devel
I'd like to suggest that we put together a team of us to work on getting
full MMS support into the CVS tree? I've reviewed the recent submissions
from Vjacheslav Chekushin < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> which add SAR to the platform and
from my limited reading they look fine (few programming opts. etc.) however
we'll need to have a team of focused testers/fixers/developers to ensure it
works 100%.
Stipe/Andreas/Oded - any of you guys interested?
