I don't think it's a matter of not considering it, I think we definitely need to be able to support sigtran. However, the importance for doing it has not been great, since I have mostly been concerned with making sure that the configuration we have right now (MTP2/MTP3/ISUP over T1/E1) is solid. I would think that in the future there will probably be some level of sigtran support. I have looked into it a few times, but again, I do not have any equipment that supports it. Before all else though, it boils down to this: there are a lot of things I "could" spend my time on, but I've been trying to identify the most effective things to spend my time on. As of late, I have been thinking the channel driver with MGCP and SS7 support would be the most effective. However, that project will probably include signalling gateway support as well (which will probably include sigtran) so I wouldn't get terribly worried that it will not be worked on at some point.
