[Asterisk-Dev] chan_misdn in asterisk beta 2 ?

[Zoa]

Hey guys,

I can understand people who want chan_misdn in cvs (so do i) but should 
it really be in the beta release ?
What happened to the code freeze ? Chan_misdn is broken and i really 
dont want to have end users try to use it and then complain everywhere 
that asterisk doesn't work.
Naming it an experimental driver won't help with that.

It doesn't even compile right now. And if you make changes to actually 
make it compile, you will probably still not get it to work. (We've been 
struggling with it for a week now and i really don't want anybody 
without a team of programmers to go through the same thing - patches 
will be made and uploaded to mantis.)

It is not stable software and should not go into beta versions at this 
stage in time. Or at least i think it should not, i'm of course not the 
decision maker.

some examples are : the use of

pthread_mutex_t
pthread_mutex_init
pthread_mutex_lock
pthread_mutex_unlock

Which are not allowed by include/asterisk/lock.h

in the cvs version there is even a typo, they use ast_mutext_t instead 
of ast_mutex_t.

Cheers,

Zoa.
