Disclaimer:  This is just what I have come to believe through
deduction.  It may not be factual.

Wanpipe and wanrouter are from Sangoma I believe (99.9% sure).

I think this is similar to BRIstuff working with many different
vendor's hardware.  Xorcom makes use of it as well as Junghanns (who
handle the original BRIstuff).  Xorcom has a version with more tools,
I am not aware of any code differences)

I believe the bottom line is a compatible chipset that allows drivers
and other software to work with different vendors.

Thanks,
