A mostly unrelated question regarding the DAHDI part of this.

The DAHDI part is in the branch
http://svnview.digium.com/svn/dahdi/linux/team/tzafrir/sysfs/

Changes there are mostly decumented in the REDME changes and script
header README in
http://svnview.digium.com/svn/dahdi?view=revision&revision=8392
(though the code to allow that is in earlier commits)

A number of specific questions:

1. I'm currently using the 'location' field (after some cooking) as a
   default for a per-span directory name. This will require fixing other
   multi-span devices, in a way similar to
   http://svnview.digium.com/svn/dahdi?view=revision&revision=8369
   I don't consider the span name a good chaice as it depends on the
   order of registration.

2. Any userspace programs have the major / minor numbers of DAHDI
   hard-wired? The separate devices could use registering separate
  (per-device) file-operations. There's much useless code. Specifically
  for operations that are not open and ioctl. And specifically the fact
  that many operations that should be done via the channel are done via
  ctl means that Asterisk requires write access to /dev/dahdi/ctl for no
  good reason.
