[edit] Mobile subscriber provisioning
I added the mobile subscriber provisioning section, since there was no accurate description of how a mobile subscriber gets provisioned, in a way in which the subscriber would easily understand.

ISPs and open configuration standards like OVAL and SPML weren't dealt with at all. This was a major omission since users of low end ISPs are the second largest group of persons who'll read this, after mobile phone providers. Corporate users are only third probably, but even their concerns weren't dealt with that well. Utility computing and its poor cousin boot image control were left out, and the management priorities 1. security 2. compliance 3. efficiency weren't spelled out. The new version isn't perfect as it relies on specialist terms, some of which need to be redirects, until there are good articles on all aspects of a modern signal infrastructure. For instance user privacy is a different thing that customer privacy, and email forwarding is a mess of its own that should be in a separate article from email, and how network operation center or NOC gets no article is hard to explain.
