I sent this in november and must have missed any answers. I vote for disabling this module as enabled by default in menuselect until we have a module that can be properly disabled in configuration and have some documentation on what it really is.

Is this the IETF COPS protocol or a proprietary version of COPS from the PacketCable consortium? 

Does anyone of the developers understand what we have included in Asterisk?
