[asterisk-biz] GSM MSC/HLR/SMSC etc

[Mitul Limbani]

Hi Steve,

The idea sounds great, but again  you are trying to replace the good ol 
MSC's from biggies, what according to you should be the cost of 
replacing such an infrastructure ?

I have been trying to source people who can solve the SS7 interfacing 
with Asterisk, but it seems that SS7 means big money and you wont get 
SS7 easily unless you are working with Telcos. Although there are a few 
broken alternatives for ss7 interconnects : chan_ss7, libss7, but due 
to the vastness of SS7, it just takes a lot of time unless there is 
someone who can handle the development cost of such a product and make 
it open source :)

Do drop me an email off the list, and we can work out some alternative 
towards the same.

Thanks & Regards,
