The Asterisk Development Team is pleased to announce the release of Asterisk
1.6.0.7. Asterisk 1.6.0.7 is available for immediate download at
http://downloads.digium.com/pub/asterisk/

This release resolves an issue where IMAP voicemail message retrieval and
Message Waiting Indication (MWI) would not work properly with the same mailbox
name in multiple voicemail contexts. This release also fixes a couple of issues
with RFC2833 DTMF, and corrects an issue with compiling on CentOS 64-bit
platforms.

Also, this Asterisk release improves compatibility with T.38 switchovers
internally; fixes an issue with Asterisk using poll() on OSX systems when it
should not; allows chan_h323 to be built against both OpenH323 and H323Plus
libraries (while simplifying the build process); and improve behavior of
ast_answer() which was problematic for T.38 re-INVITES and other sorts of
channel operations. Additionally, other bugs have been resolved in this
release.
