I was not very happy with the major changing of how Local/ channels are
handled and displayed, and without so much as a notice anywhere about it. I
posted a bug two weeks ago about it(http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=4529)
but no one looked at it. Yes everything works, but it broke several of our
add-ons that depended on the behavior that existed in 1.0.7. I have had to
make many alteration to lots of our code to accomodate this new version
while still working with older versions. 

It bothers me that changes like this and the CallerID change in Release
1.0.5(that was undone in 1.0.6) happen without much chance for comment and
without much justifcation as to why they are being made in a Stable tree.
