Why the bug tracking page in a different website. Why not under iptel.org ?

I completely agree with you. I have been told that there was an attempt at introducing a bug-tracking system earlier, but that it has been difficult. Anyhow, in setting up policies and procedures around the experimental directory, we have decided that usage of http://bugs.sip-router.org will be mandatory. Hopefully recent, better integration between the bug tracking system and the CVS will make it more convenient to use also for other CVS modules (however, I don't have a say there). g-)

This is just my observation and you may not agree, but I believe this project could be much better maintained if it used a more structured ticketing style system to manage development issues instead of the current mailing lists. In my experience, mailing lists like this foster a terrible user experience where many development issues can go on without response.
Ideally, if there was a mailing list to address user issues and ticketing system like the one Digium uses to manage Asterisk, I think everyone would benefit by being better informed and ser would ultimately be a better product for it. How many people out there feel that their issues have fallen through the cracks in the past couple years?

It is your opinion, but I repeat myself, that the SER code maintained by us will go further -- I don't think that someone can claim that we didn't do the job for our code (the only discrepancy is some last-minute adds in xlog (to print avps) - will be committed on unstable very soon
with the new color patch). The cvs was created just to ease the maintainance. The patches would be a nightmare.
Maybe I've misunderstood you: is this only a parallel "stabilized" version + some features or is it a full fork (do you intend to fork unstable also)?
It is fork for the code that we changed (acc module, usrloc module ...),
in the future may be other that they do not find the path in SER. We will maintain and upgrade our part of code from SER continuously.
I have no problem with another stable version, what worries me is fragmenting the development for unstable (which is the place where major changes are made).
I see no fragmenting there -- the situation is the same for SER as it was before. For example, there is no fragment for acc module, it will be
maintained by who did it till now, adding what he considers necessary there. But we came to meet a lot of requests of why the acc patch is not
included in the CVS (it was fully backward compatible and had new features requested by many SER users) and we want to promote _more open_
approach to contributions to all parts of code. The acc patch was sent on November 1, 2004. No real response (neither negative, nor positive) from maintainer to the submission since then ... are you aware of a good
reason?!?! ... should we wait just about (or more) half an year for each
contribution?!? I will not do that anymore!!!

This is my first posting to this list but I have been following for about 5 months now. I began to use SER back in February and have used versions from 0.8.14 to cvs versions and have seen plenty of changes here and there. The biggest thing that really troubles me is the almost non-existent documentation for the modules. There has been more than one occasion where I have run into problems to check the documentation to find no mention of moving things from one module to another, or other things such as new features and what not. Most times I have to dig through the source code to actually find information.
The sum of this all is that if the fork of OpenSER is going to present itself as a moving package, with up-to-date documention and more so, not having to wait months upon months for a request or a fix to occur. If OpenSER has that intention then I am all for supporting it and using the code. Just because the current code works for some, does not mean that the rest of us users have to wait for something to happen.
