Junghanns?

Seriously, though:

Bristuff has many useful fixes. But those never get upstream. And thus
it is a problem to rely on them. Any thoughts on how to better work with
them?

I have been able to communicate with the author, but on a very
non-regular basis. Though he does produce useful code and does respond
to fixes (RC3b includes a libpri fix of ours, but not some small zaptel
svn backport patches we need).

I'm not sure I understand the need for a separate "send_message" channel
operation. And I don't understand the need for the dialplan/prefix
operations in chan_sip.
