There are technically three "heads" right now: Kamailio, OpenSIPS and
SER (by alphabetic order ;-) ). 

I gather that SER should be merged (in the time frame of the Squeeze
cycle: let's say: a year from now) with Kamailio. So we'll be left with
two.

What conflicts do those packages have have? (apart from UDP port 5060: 
e.g. common file locations)

What would it take to migrate from OpenSER to each of them? What
configuration changes? Anything else? Is it worth worrying about
migration from SER to those two?
