OK - I went to check and my OLD devel account is the only one I still 
have.  I just tried sending it some mail to see what would happen using 
my old credentials.  If it works, cool.

Here's what I'm doing with the VOIPInnovations stuff:

1)  There's a new CPAN module (that VI is reviewing) that needs to be 
installed.  I've offered it to them since they have gone to the trouble 
of marking every page in their API-2.0 document with "Do Not Distribute" 
banners.  If they want to distro the thing, that's cool with me.  If 
they want it on CPAN, that's cool.  If they don't care one way or the 
other, we can put it up someplace.

2)  There are some interface modules (exports?) that need to be added to 
FreeSide.  Once I'm convinced that I haven't completely hosed everything 
on that front up, I'll post them on -devel (which should have my new 
account working by then).  I'm using the old GlobalPOPs routines as the 
basis for that, but the going is kind of slow.  I'll get it - don't worry.

3)  I also wrote a CDR Import for VI CDR record files which may or may 
not be important.  For the initial installation of historic records, it 
would probably be handy to have.  Getting the MySQL CDR thing working 
should be simple enough.  That's also on my place.

4)  Once I'm done with that, I'm going to go through the whole process 
with VoiceJump (a new provider I've been working with) and CallWithUs, 
both of whom implement slightly different APIs that perform similarly to 
VI/GP API.
