Hello,

I am aware of such confusion, but there are people using the two database schema, so completely unifying them is quite complex process.

But, speaking of available documentation, community maintenance and new comers, probably it makes sense to make kamailio default flavour, because ser requires more technical involvement -- I haven't seen new comers looking at installing ser flavour, which is default one now.

Cheers,
Daniel

HI Daniel,

I consider myself a "new comer" and having both kamailio and ser interacting with each other is indeed confusing.

For me, the change is welcome and I'm in favor of doing all the effort at once.

Regards.

Carlos

Hello,

some bits were left with the old project name OpenSER, not to disturb too much at that time and see where everything goes.

Other voices expressed same idea in the past, now everything is stable and development goes smooth, so it is good to make a decision because openser is too way back and new comers could be confused.

In my list is renaming from openser to kamailio next attributes:
- default database name (exiting configs should not be impacted that much as most of them have database provided by module parameter)
- default database access usernames and passwords, respectively openser, openserro and openserrw should become kamailio, kamailioro and kamailiorw
- perl module API is packed as OpenSER - this could affect some people using it, but a search and replace should do it
- snmpstats mibs - probably it is going to have some impact as well

Eventually we can start doing it gradually, one or two per release, but is probably better to do all at once, so people will do one upgrade with next major release.

Another thing is sercmd, it is in conflict for packaging as both ser and kamailio install it. It means that one cannot install both kamailio and ser at same time from packages. One option is to install it as kamcmd.

Because these changes affect users and devels, I sent the message to both mailing lists. Opinions?

Cheers,
Daniel
