Basic Description

Adds SMS Functionality to Simplenews using Twilio.

Specifically this module adds a new field to each newsletter node type. This textfield contains the SMS version of the news item.

Users can subscribe to the SMS messages via text message.

Once users confirm their desire to receive the SMS messages, all newsletters that are sent, and that have text in the SMS message field will be sent to all users who have subscribed.

Allows you to send a test text message just as you can send a test newsletter.

Also adds a simple method for sending text messages.

Items Needing Work

While the module uninstalls cleanly, some more care needs to be taken to clean up items on node deletion and node type deletion.

Possible Features

Hooking into a more generic SMS framework once one is working for D7.
Allowing users to specific which newsletter they want to subscribe to. Currently SMS users just ask to subscribe and once subscribed receive all newsletters.
