Folks, Has anyone considered trying to build accounting into HylaFAX? Recent discussions on the IETF-FAX mailing list have suggested that RADIUS (or its eventual successor DIAMETER) might be a good backend for accounting and settlement using networked fax services . . . given how well the hylafax client/server protocol was designed in the HylaFAX-4.0, it seems adding some calls to log transactions using radiusd could be a realistic way of acheiving this. Is there anyone out there who would be willing to work towards wedging this into hylafax? I'm keen to be involved in such a project, even organise the resources and provide a test bed (I have radiusd and HylaFAX installed, and do happen to have a deployed pool of servers worldwide), but I'm sadly lacking in programming talent (practically none). This would represent the first time since Sam left us that HylaFAX will have grown a feature . . . thanks to everyone for the bugfixes and general tuning, but if HylaFAX lacks one thing at the moment it's accounting and settlement. Please get back to me if you're interested. I do hope to employ anything developed in our own network, but also fold it back into HylaFAX. -Darren
