Something I think could be useful, and would allow a lot of interoperability, would be to have a common HLR/VLR replacement. The Asterisk SIP registry doesn't meet our long-term requirements and so we need to develop one anyway. If we can agree on an interface and an implementation, we could do something here.
I think I would actually want to have a protocol-compatible HLR, i.e. using the standard interfaces that GSM/3GPP use for the HLR - which I doubt is something that you would want to see :)
I'm open minded at this point. We eventually have to interface to standard HLRs anyway and I need some project to force me to learn the MAP stuff. It would also be good if the underlying database can be used to generate configurations for FreeSWITCH or Asterisk, but that should not be hard given any SQL-based system.
