I agree I would and do use automation tools like chef and puppet for that very 
reason.

My original post did leave a fairly important potential benefit to native HTTP 
loading of config though, that is you could dynamically generate config in a 
webapp which the mooted 5.0 runtime routing reloading could really take 
advantage of.

Chef, Ansible, Puppet, and others, their job is exactly that, ensuring that 
nodes are configured accordingly, also ensuring that any operation needed for 
that configuration change is applied ( reloading dispatcher in case of new 
config, restarting kamailio in case the whole config file changed, ... ).

Maybe better to use those dedicated tool rather than working to reinvent the 
wheel ?

My 2 cents...
