From Harald: Great! I sincerely hope you will be releasing related software as free / open source software. Osmocom can only live if people contribute to it. We have a severe shortage of contributions, and a project with an enormously wide scope.
From Neels: Is your MAP proxy going to be Free Software? Since Osmocom lives from contribution, we would highly welcome you sharing your progress and code base with the Osmocom community. (It might even be hosted by osmocom.org??)
We have such plans indeed. I forgot to mention that it is related to Pentonet. I guess some of you've already had a conversation about this project with some of our guys.
