[asterisk-dev] AMI version number in Asterisk 1.8?

[Russell Bryant]

Greetings,

Issue 17651 requests an increase of the AMI protocol version number for
Asterisk 1.8.  After reviewing it, my current feeling is that we should
leave it at 1.1.

The bump to 1.1 was after a significant number of changes to existing
manager actions and events in Asterisk 1.6.0.  I don't know of anything
that has changed to that degree since then.  The mantis issue notes an
IAX2 peers change (that came from
https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=17100), but the change there is
very minor.

Also, in Asterisk 1.6.2 and 1.8, there is a CoreSettings AMI command
that will let you get the Asterisk version number if needed.

Do you agree that we should leave it alone?  If you think it should be
changed, why?

Thanks,
