[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Greetings,

The Asterisk.org development team has released Asterisk 1.6.0-beta5.  As of this
beta of 1.6.0, 1.6.0 is now feature frozen.  In addition to a number of bug
fixes, the following new features have been added since beta4:

 * The SMDI interface in Asterisk has been reworked to fix a number of
   issues as well as add some new features.  SMDI message information
   is now accessed in the dialplan using some new dialplan functions.
   New options have been added to map Asterisk voicemail boxes to SMDI
   station IDs.  Also, MWI will now properly be sent for systems that have
   some external interface modifying voicemail boxes, such as a web
   interface, or with an email client in the case of IMAP storage.

 * The Postgres CDR module now supports some of the features of
   cdr_adaptive_odbc.  Specifically, you may add additional columns into
   the table and they will be set, if you set the corresponding CDR
   variable name.  Also, if you omit columns in your database table,
   those fields will be silently skipped when inserting the record.

 * The ResetCDR application now has an 'e' option that re-enables the
   CDR if it has been disabled using the NoCDR option.

 * A new CLI command, "devstate change", has been added which allows you
   to change the state of a Custom device.  Custom device states were
   previously only settable by using the DEVICE_STATE() dialplan function.

 * The Originate manager action now has its own permission level called
   originate.  Also, if you want this action to be able to execute applications
   that call out to a subshell, it requires the system privilege, as well.
   These changes were made to enhance the security of the manager interface.

For a full list of features that have been introduced from Asterisk 1.4 to
Asterisk 1.6.0, see the following file:

For a full list of changes to Asterisk 1.6.0 from beta4 to beta5, see the ChangeLog:

 * http://svn.digium.com/view/asterisk/tags/1.6.0-beta5/ChangeLog?view=markup

There are a few more issues to resolve in 1.6.0 before it can enter release
candidate status, but we expect that to happen relatively soon.

Thank you for your continued support of Asterisk!
