My current patch series (before I started working on mbuni) is:
--- cut here
[stingray@anna P2]$ cat series
automake
curl
charset
msisdn-accounting
freeradius
sx1_kludge
version
--- cut here

As we agreed on more generic solution on sx1 kludge I'll throw it out.
Msisdn accounting adds MSISDN into access log (nice debugging stuff).
Freeradius - to get msisdn from db4 db (together with custom freeradius
module).

The most critical (in sense of my previous email) is curl, and
charset. Curl replaces wapbox http get/post with libcurl calls,
charset... err, charset actually works, I will explain later if needed. 
I did all that via configure option, so you really can try/see the both.

And basement of all these is automake conversion, which I thought will
be never performed.


I'll send all these here except for automake - it's 405K in size, so
I'll put whole patchset at http://stingr.net/l/
