Kannel hosts a very nice embedded web server that serves all our http requests from our applications. This web server can also be used to provide to the world a set of web services be that SOAP or WSDL that will perform the configuration of the system. That way although it is not a GUI we can build GUI's that call those interfaces, and it will also allow us to choose later on to perform those changes live not just in the configuration files. From then on everyone can use the scripting language of their choice to build a GUI with the look and feel of their choice that will call those SOAP/WSDL interfaces without direct knowledge of the kannel configuration files and location (be that location in the filesystem or the network) ... The reason behind this is that most large kannel installations that might need a configuration helper do not reside in a single system and any such GUI would have to be able to coop with this.

It would be much more useful to build a reload (without restart) function. Another thing I would like to see is queueing and throttling mechanism per sender.

I've been managing and administrating Kannel for a while and know the basics to develop such project. My hope is to build a web based GUI for managing both Kannel (Including SMPP server by Stipe) and Mbuni. If anybody is interested to join me please contact me.
