In your previous mail you wrote: I would be a bit careful to use IMEI as Interface Identifier. I am not really sure if this is something you want to tell the whole world.
=> there is such a concern for ESD (CDMA 32 bit hardware ID) but nothing about IMEI. In fact IMEI is sent in clear by the GSM protocol (as shown by our capture/decoding tool). (I know that Francis has a draft out on this topic, and no I have not read it, yet.) => no comment (:-). For instance, when the 3GPP mechanism of address allocation was designed in 3GPP, one of the criteria was not to show the IMEI. This is kind of confidential information from the end user point of view. In addition, it might not always be unique... => or you confuse IMEI and IMSI or you have access to 3GPP documents there are not on the 3GPP or ETSI sites. Can you give a pointer?
