10 The one piece which is common between these two domains is the database of

11 locally owned phone numbers per North American Numbering Plan (NANP): whether

12 the task at hand is routing a call or routing SMS, either way we need to be able

13 to look at a phone number and immediately tell (without querying another server

14 or process) if that number belongs in the local fiefdom or in the outside world.

Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org>

15 Because the set of NANP telephone numbers which belong in the local fiefdom is
|

parents:

|
16 the same across different service types, the number database is shared between
|
Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org>
parents:
diff
changeset
|
17 the two domains - and the easiest way to share this database is to factor out
|
Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org>
parents:

|
18 and share the code that implements it.

27 suite of software (themwi-*) is unusual in that it has no function by itself,
|
Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org>
parents:

|
28 its only function is to serve as an add-on to Osmocom CNI suite - hence it is
|
Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org>
parents:

changeset
|
29 desirable to have as much harmonization as possible between the base and the
