    [ https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-22820?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=211483#comment-211483 ] 

Matt Jordan commented on ASTERISK-22820:
----------------------------------------

JIRA issues are to track issues and provide a place for people to get patches. Review for patches that are small can also occur on the JIRA issue.

Review board is typically reserved for people who propose patches often and have shown that they can follow the [Coding Guidelines|https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Coding+Guidelines]. Patches are put up on Review Board when they warrant more discussion than what takes place on the JIRA issues. Often, folks in the developer community pick up issues in JIRA and post patches to Review Board for further discussion, if they feel like it is warranted. It is, of course, always a good idea to do code reviews, and if a patch seems large and is committed directly without review, someone may ask you that you revert the patch and put it up for review.

Finanly, in general, we try to have discussions on the mailing list, as opposed to on the JIRA issues. More people read the development mailing list than the asterisk-bugs mailing list, and it is an appropriate mechanism for discussion of code.

Hope that clears things up!

> Starting from draft 2 of RFC 5456 (October 23, 2006) plaintext auth is not supported in IAX2 protocol. Please refer to section 8.6.3 of RFC 5456.
> But plaintext auth is still supported by Asterisk implementation of IAX2. This support should be dropped.
