The Asterisk Development Team is pleased to announce the third beta of
Asterisk 1.6.2.0. Asterisk-1.6.2.0-beta3 is available for immediate download at

This is an incremental release of the 1.6.2.0 branch as the previous beta was
released just over a month ago, and many issues have been resolved since then.
Included in this release are the following issues reported by the community:

  * Update spiral support in trunk and 1.6.x branches to match what is in 1.4
    (related to issue #13630).

  * Fix RFC2833 issues with DTMF getting duplicated and with duration wrapping
    over (issue #14815).

  * Fix a bug where the codecs of the called party leg were not properly sent
    back to the call leg when reinvited (issue #13569).

  * Fix broken attended transfers (issue #15183).

  * Add flags to chanspy audiohook so that audio stays in sync (issue #13745).

  * Resolve issues with choppy sound when using res_timing_pthread
    (issue #14412)

Additionally, an update to chan_iax2 related to issue AST-2009-001 is included
