Maybe an option of hiding or sending the MCC/MNC would be discussible but I would just use 0's as default.

DEVS: Password can be anything, still reverse and MD5 the password, so you don't need to check if it's an IMEI etc. (MAKE SURE YOU REVERSE THE PASSWORD SO ALL CLIENTS ARE COMPATIBLE)
With PHP, I'm doing this: md5(strrev($Password));

Also, you need to send the correct MCC/MNC for registration to work properly, or else you won't receive the code via SMS. (voice will still work though)

Regarding devs discussion, this is why I suggested Google+.
I've already discussed a few security issues with tgalal on there.

Again: My Google+ Profile, I'll create an open discussion with Developers ONLY.
