Re: HELP! Patent claim! Can we use an alternate protocol?
David schrieb:
Hello,
Us users of SMS Shortcodes are getting hit in the US for violating a
patent by TCS Inc. The patent claims to cover:
A gateway, comprising: a first communication path to accept a short
message from a mobile device; a translation module to insert said short
message into an Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) message; a second
communication path to push said HTTP message to at least one Universal
Resource Locator (URL); and a return communication path to receive a
return message relating to said HTTP message.
The patent goes on to mention a whole bunch of stuff, ie, using HTTP
POST to send the http message, etc.
I just got out of a meeting with my lawyer. He says, the only way to
get around this is to NOT use HTTP.
Over the weekend, I tried to use the sms-service using EXEC instead of
GET-URL, which worked fine... and then the server crashed... i'm
guessing too many spawned processes?
My question to you all is: how can we NOT use HTTP but have the same
end result? ideally, it would use a command-line exec, but push it into
a waiting server, instead of spawning a new thread. Does anybody have
any ideas on how to do this?
Hi David,
there seems to be a HUGE buzz here in the list regarding this patent issue.
Can you please reference the patent with patent no./ID, so we can have access to
it and READ what it actually claims to be an invention?
In any modern country, an invention has a precondition: the invention has to
be done FIRST by the claimer. If the pure concept is KNOWN to the public, even
without patent pending registration, a patenting IS NOT possible, and can't be
legally prosecuted.
Therefore, please state the exact patenting country, no., ID and name of
claimer.

Re: kannel 1.x certification

Hi,
I know that kannel is fully certified fro wap 1.x. Where can i find the
list of standards that this pertains (ie. WAP-259-WDP-20010614-a)?
Else what is the date that the first wap 1.2 spec launched (assuming
that everything before is 1.x)
in addition we're also 1.2.1 compliant, since we have been in the OpenGroup
certification REPOOL (reference pool) ;)
The term WAP 1.1, or 1.2.1 represents a set of protocols. Refer to the OMA for
the enabler section to see what the 1.2.1 stack refers to exactly. Where you
still have the MUST and OPTIONAL track. Not all things in 1.2.1 have been a must
for the vendors. That's why interoperability was a huge mess at that (now?)
time.

Re: [ANNOUNCE-URGENT] Kannel 1.4.3 stable release available (bug fixrelease)
kriko schrieb:
How do you find out which version you use?
bearerbox doesn't seem to support --version switch, or something similar...
Nikos named it right, you get the version to stdout when calling the daemon, and
a more generic way should be:
$ gw-config --version
which shows the installed bearerbox. (depending if you used --prefix in the
configure call to install the package somewhere specifically).
But I agree, we should provide a --version flag to the daemons too, for sake of
conformance with the usual ways users try to get informed which version they
deal with.

Re: [ANNOUNCE-URGENT] Kannel 1.4.3 stable release available (bugfixrelease)
My apologies to Alex and the rest of the community for the trouble. I just
forwarded a patch that the owner said it tested OK. I had no way of knowing
since I don't have an SMPP connection :-(.
BR,
Nikos

Hi,
Did that affected only DLR rerouting as was your original patch a week
ago, or corrects problem with all SMPP DLRs?
Hi Nikos,
NO, this was of GENERAL interest in the 1.4.2. Alex broke things while
trying to
solve your Sun thing :p
