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.<BR>

<DIV>I still 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.</DIV>
