I have tried to push the changes for inclusion to Asterisk 11, but 
missed the deadline and now for Asterisk 12 too :(
The code published in the reviews is working flawlessly here for some 
time now and maybe once Asterisk 12 is branched and trunk unfreezes for 
new features it may be accepted for inclusion. More test reports and 
code reviews may help for this a lot.

The code in the reviews (and relevant branches) is against trunk (for 
both libss7 and Asterisk), because it can be officially included in 
trunk only (and Asterisk 12 when branched as it is current trunk).
libss7 trunk is not compatible with any official version of Asterisk as 
it requires those review changes.
I have made a patch for Asterisk 11 ( 
https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/SS7-27 ), but not for 1.8 ... 
there are definitely some nonexistent functions calls for 1.8, so it 
will not apply cleanly and will need some more work, but not sure how 
difficult it will be to backport it
