Hello everyone,
I've just finnished writing together a small web interface for the OpenBSC
HLR. It allows you to modify various parameters in the database and also
provides a set of functions to modify the HLR or sending SMSes in your own
scripts.
The project is still very alpha but it seems to work reasonably good. Feel
free to give any feedback!
Screenshots and source code is available on my website:

I have some questions:
1) When I start bsc_hack bsc_init.c first establishes OML link and
initializes the bts then it establishes RSL link and bts starts
broadcasting. However, it takes so much time to start the bts. Instead of
this I want to do the following: it establishes OML link at the beginning
and only once, then when i want to start broadcasting it establishes just
the RSL link and bts will start faster since i don't have to wait for OML
link. What should be done for this?
2) If i send one or two word messages from telnet interface it is okay. But
if i send a longer message the phone could't receive the end of the message
correctly(last words may be incomplete). Did any one encounter with this
problem? What is wrong with me?
3) Could I send SMS in which extension of the sender is text not integer.
For example, i want to send an information SMS that this is a test network.
For this purpose i want to send an SMS from 'OpenBSC'. I set the extension
of the first subscriber in database as text and tried to send the SMS but
SMS wasn't delivered. What should i do?
4) Can i add SMS externally to SMS table of database?
Thanks.
Jason
It was my understanding from your suggestion that there would be presentations and discussions after those presentations at the meetings, making this not just having a beer with friends but more formal affairs.
That would be useful for people elsewhere to see, given that this is a global community. Not sure what German law has to do with putting online or streaming such presentations. Cameras off when it comes to the informal part and beer time..
Love this list otherwise. And will come to Berlin this summer so may attend one or two, regardless :)
Cheers from New York.

And I couldn't disagree more with you. The mere existance of the two
words 'camera' and 'unobtrusive' in one sentence are a contradiction in
terms.
If I want to meet with a small group of people and informally discuss
technical topic, than that is _very_ different from being live streamed
to an unknonwn number of people, any of which could make recordings and
I would have to very carefully think about each and every word that I'm
saying. That's not a particularly relaxed environment and would kill
all the fun there is in having the meeting in the first place.
Legally, In Germany this corresponds to "not publicly spoken word"
(nicht oeffentlich gesprochenes Wort). It is punishable under law to
record or broadcast that. (Clause 201 of German criminal code).
Regards,
Harald

Could not disagree more. We live-stream local events all the time with a very unobtrusive webcam/ustream and it bothers no one who is there but benefits all who are not.

Hi,
I don't think this is a good idea. It kills the local atmosphere without
having any real benefit. Every decision/code and most likely slides will be
public anyway.

Hi all,
I was pondering to start a regular Osmocom meeting (monthly or bi-weekly)
in Berlin.
The idea would be not only to converge the existing developers in Berlin
(zecke, roh, prom, tobias, peter, kevin, myself, ...) but to also try to
share some knowledge and excitement with other interested hackers in the
wider community.
A split format for the event might make sense: Have a more or less
organized 45min talk about one particular topic + 15min discussion and
then switch to an informal meeting style without any particular topic or
moderator.
For the first half there is a long list of topics intended at informing
people about the status and capabilities of the respective projects:
OsmocomBB, OsmoTETRA, OsmoGMR, SIMtrace, etc.
Regarding the venue, I would suggest to hold it at the Berlin CCC.
What do you generally think about this?
What day of the week should we be aiming at? Tuesday and Thursday is
generally not a good idea, as those are already occupied with other
events.
If you think it's a good idea, I would request/register the event with
the CCC Berlin.
Regards,
Harald

Can you record the video about the presentations and upload to some video
sharing site ? I'm certain, that there would be some interest watching it :)
Thanks,

I would say monthly is more realistic. But I'm also fine with bi-weekly.

Dear Osmocom community,
This email to inform you that the call for participation for the next Libre Software Meeting (LSM or RMLL: Rencontres Mondiales du Logiciel Libre) ends on 31st March: http://2012.rmll.info/en/participate/call-for-papers
This edition will take place in Geneva from 7th to 12th July 2012 (7-8 general public days, 9-12 theme focused, professional).
It would be of great interest for the communities to learn about the Osmocom projects in presentations or workshop. Real world applications would be interesting too.
So please don't hesitate to directly submit.
Don't hesitate also to contact me for more information.

Dear group members,
I would like to ask you a question regarding the timeouts and
initiating/allocating an SDCCH channel for a subscriber inside of the
GSM network. I am trying to modify some parts of OpenBSC
(/openbsc/src/libmsc/rrlp.c) and to implement the MS-based RRLP in
OpenBSC (to send assistance data in form of almanac, ephemeris, BTS
geolocation data and GPS reference time to the MS).
At the moment I use the silent sms to start an RRLP request (send RRLP
request + assistance data and then send the silent sms). But if it
takes too long to send the assistance data OpenBSC starts from the
beginning (send rrlp request + assistance data + sms again). I think
this is because OpenBSC waits for an ack from the MS for the silent
sms (which has not been sent) and therefore it's a timeout issue. As a
quick hack I have modified parts of the code and got the RRLP to work
(sent successfully these data and I got a position from the MS).
Just for the curious one, I commented out three lines just before the
return, in /openbsc/src/libmsc/gsm_04_11.c in the function,
gsm411_rx_rp_ack, the following lines:
//else
//gsm411_release_conn(trans->conn);
/* free the transaction here */
//trans_free(trans);
and I changed one timer value from 10 to 100, in
/openbsc/src/libbsc/bsc_rll.c in the function, rll_establish to:
osmo_timer_schedule(&rllr->timer, 100, 0);.
As I know what I did was wrong (since changing the timers and not
releasing the channel properly influences the whole system) but I just
did it for the purpose of testing and to see do I send correct data
and does the RRLP work at all.
I hope you can give me some hints and guides how to allocate a channel
for around 130 seconds and to send the RRLP assistance data within
that channel without doing the above tricks. Once everything works
properly I will provide the RRLP code.
Best regards,
Refik Hadzialic
Hi All,
I wrote this very simple script to build a bit of osmocom with coverage info,
run the tests and use the lcov utility to create html.
I am too lazy to upload the result somewhere right now.
