stackThat’s the same thing we saw...  Everyone wants SS7 but no one wants to 
help fund it... And to make matters worse just getting proper documentation for 
ANSI SS7 is not exactly a cheap endeavor. Unfortunately telecordia and crew 
still want to charge thousands of dollars for the docs when the ITU decided 
ages ago to make those available for free... Even then its still a substantial 
amount of effort to get something working (even if you have active links you 
can use to help understand whats going on)K

SS7 stackThis is a little like the hen and the egg... No one will support you 
starting to write a SS7 ++ stack, but once you get going and the first stacks 
turns up, so will business. Jan

see a compelling business case for a foundation supported free open source set 
of libs for the base protocols, commercially supported by multiple contributors 
who build higher level applications using the base protocols.  In a situation 
like this, commercial sponsors can pool resources for certification.  Obviously 
anyone using a modified version would not be using certified code but the 
sponsors who pay for certification would still get multiple benefits.MikeOn Jan

I don’t see a non Commercial one getting certification and then getting widely

get them certified... Its not like SIP where they will pretty much take 
anything and everything unfortunatelyKFrom: Brian West

SS7 stackWe should have an open source one too thats MPL or BSD ... I don't 
agree with selling protocols like this commercially.  Guess thats just the Open 
Source in me wanting that stuff to be free./bOn Jan 27, 2009, at 12:27 PM, Ken

There are things available for this in the commercial space.  One from 
CometSig.com and one from sangoma.  Nothing at this time in the opensource 
arena. (OpenSS7 will not be integrated with freeswitch due to licensing 
issues)Contact me off list if you are interested in either of the commercial 
versions I can assist you with these things.Ken
