Re: SMS over SS7

Anything can be added to Kannel. The issue is:

1) Why
2) What would it take

Now I'll leave #1 to others, but I can tell you that #2 is a question  
that would, as others have said, not be answered without some mental  
effort. Before we even get to the development effort, which I assure  
you would not be insignificant.

I was merely trying to point you elsewhere, save you some time. But of  
course you are welcome to add it yourself!

Paul.
