Yes, as far as I know there ist a private BS11 from Harald located at CCCB (correct me if I am wrong). Also there are some BS11 located at the BHT University Berlin (TFH). If you want to see them in action just tell me ;)
I will be also from 21. at SIGINT in Cologne, so if you have time to meet me there...
Best regards Björn

Hello,
I just wanted to ask whether there is a BS11 that I could have a look at/play with in Berlin? Does the Club have one or the c-base?
Whom could I kindly ask for a short introduction?
I have experience with Telekom standards/E1/ISDN.
I just tried to come up with a patch to prefix the timer functions with bsc_ and started to think about public API. The thing is we only need to properly prefix symbols we intend to export. I don't think we will export timers.
well, it basically depens on how you want to see openbsc/libbsc. If you treat it as a library, then of course exporting timers is a stupid idea. However, if OpenBSC is an application program / daemon that also supports plugins, then providing infrastructure such as timers to the plugins is a good idea.
I might be off base here, and I haven't looked at the code beyond getting it to compile on OS X, but:
Telekom applications always need timers and interfaces to other systems, and a reactor-style event loop with timers is nearly always the way to go. You've already got a select loop and timers - why not package it in a separate lib?
Or offer integration with libevent? (http://www.monkey.org/~provos/libevent/ )
