James,

We have a Sign-Up server in development. From what we understand, Ivan 
has on his, no doubt, long list of things-to-do, an integration of our 
sign-up server with Freeside.

We have a demo at:

http://www.imagixx.net:7790

We are making the server available for free to those interrsted in 
helping with this integration, and otherwise beta testing the server. You 
can get our in-progress sign-up server from anonymous ftp:

ftp.auidea.org/pub/signup

Although free, the finished version would have the one following caveat 
included as a part of its existing license.  The legalese:

By downloading the Software, you agree to and accept the following terms 
and 
conditions. If you are not willing to accept and be bound by these terms 
and conditions, then you are not authorized to download and may not use 
the Software.

>IDEA grants to Licensee the non-exclusive, non-transferable license to 
>use, transmit, reproduce and/or copy the Software for operation, 
>administration, security, host device emulation and client remote access 
>purposes within Licensee's proprietary network, provided however, that: 
>(a) such use of the Software is restricted to Licensee's proprietary 
>network, the IDEA Network(tm) and/or other IDEA sanctioned programs; (b) 
>use of the Software in conjunction with any other network, wholesale or 
>roaming service, service bureau or other revenue generating business is 
>prohibited.
