We are proud to announce that Asterisk 1.2.1 has been released! This release of Asterisk contains a number of bug fixes over version 1.2.0. See the ChangeLog at http://ftp.digium.com/pub/telephony/asterisk/ChangeLog-1.2.1 for more details. It is available from the ftp.digium.com FTP servers, as well as the Digium SVN servers (under the '1.2.1' tag). As of this release, Russell Bryant and Kenny Shumard will become the official maintainers of the Asterisk, Zaptel and libpri 1.2.x release branches (with help from the community bug marshals and others, of course). Russell has been the maintainer of the 1.0.x branch for quite some time and Kenny is a Digium employee who has been helping to manage our internal source trees for Asterisk Business Edition and other projects. Mark Spencer and Kevin P. Fleming
