What is openbts and GSM? edit
I came to this article to see what openbts is. I suggest that this question could and should be answered in the first paragraph, perhaps the first sentence. The existing first paragraph tells me it will allow GSM enabled phones to be sip clients. I can already use VOIP, how is that different? Please someone who actually knows, tell me and my grandmother what openbts will let us do that is different from what we're doing now. How does it deal better with rural communicators? What is the basic idea?
Open BTS→OpenBTS edit
The following SVN update (1 hour ago), appears to have renamed the project, now without a space:
r11 | dburgess00 | 2008-09-10 00:57:20 +0300 (Wed, 10 Sep 2008) | 3 lines
Updated PDF document to change "Open BTS" to "OpenBTS".
I'll now move the main page and swap it with the redirect. —Sladen (talk) 00:42, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
Temporary license edit
I've not been able to track down the exact licenses used for the tests. Callsign WD9X appears to belong[1] to a "Jay Maple". If that is the case, then presumably KN is some postfix referring to PCS/GSM/experimental use. I've not no luck (after an hour+) finding the STA for the Nevada site. Does anyone have the URL to hand?—Sladen (talk) 19:23, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
Sladen -
The FCC tracks experimental licenses under a different system. A search of WD9XKN in the experimental license database will return this applicaiton.

Patents edit
What about listing some of the patents behind GSM?--Kozuch (talk) 13:29, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
The section "Encumbered standard and IEEE alternatives" should be removed. The material, while interesting, is not directly related to be project. It would probably be more appropriate in a blog. The subject of telecom patents is not specific to OpenBTS and therefore does not need special treatment in the OpenBTS entry. DavidABurgess (talk) 01:48, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
Niue edit
The style of section "Niue" is inappropriate and non-encyclopedic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.114.114.211 (talk) 10:50, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
It looks like it was written by an emo. KenSharp (talk) 20:03, 3 June 2013 (UTC)
