[SR-Users] Looking for documentation with SER 2.0

[Greger Viken Teigre]

AFAIK, no one is working on a Getting Started for sip-router 3.0 (nor 
ser 2.0 for that sake).  Such a guide should probably be written around 
the example config that comes with the code. Contrary to SER, this 
config is not only working, but a pretty good best practice config for 
the common set of functionality most people need.
If somebody would like to give a go at it, I'll be happy to provide 
guidance. However, I don't currently have the cycles to do it myself.
I think I would have tried a different approach this time, not a 
line-by-line analysis, but rather a more high-level description and 
include the more operational aspects as well. The line-by-line 
documentation should really be a part of the config itself.

I did an attempt at building a framework for maintaining a 
self-documenting config using m4.  It became a bit complex as what I 
created was a modular build system for maintaining configs in smaller 
.m4 files where multiple versions of the same config could be built (for 
example different servers, debug versions, etc). I then built the 
Getting Started config into the framework (so you could just re-use the 
pieces you wanted), and finally I added the documentation inline so that 
the xml doc could be auto-generated for inclusion in the Getting Started 
guide. 

I attempted to sell the idea that the example config for SER 2.0 could 
be maintained the same, modular, self-documenting way, but there was no 
interest.

I believe the config buildsystem has been removed from sip-router code tree.
