[Serusers] Re: register module max_contacts set via avpops

[Nils Ohlmeier]

I'm sure it is possible with open source software. In (this) case you 
(probably) have to add a little bit of code.
But IMO your asking for "features" which are restricting the users of your 
service (compared to what the protocol and other providers offer). And as 
open source developers typically love their freedom (thats one of the 
advantages of OS) they usually do not volunteer to implement any kind of user 
restrictions expect it is for security reasons.

Note: this is just my personal opinion.

Greetings
