We already mentioned some of the reasons why it did get dropped 3 years ago
(first two points from memory, last two from old IRC logs):


[License incompatible (GPL), but i think tony tried to negotiate on alternate license terms]

Not possible to have multiple SIP profiles (due to global variables being used in the lib).

A race-condition under high load, that couldn't be resolved back then (with the help of the pjsip developers).

And the sofia module "just working" and surviving the scalability tests, so all efforts were focussed on
mod_sofia and pjsip got dropped.
