[asterisk-dev] Asterisk 13 Feature Freeze Reminder

[Matthew Jordan]

Hey everyone -

It is that time again - Asterisk feature freeze reminder! Per the
Asterisk wiki [1], feature freeze for Asterisk 13 is scheduled for the
3rd Wednesday of July - or July 16th. Shortly after the feature freeze
is hit, we will create the Asterisk 13 branch and begin preparing the
first release from that branch for beta testing.

Please try to have all patches to Asterisk up on Review Board by that
date. Patches do not have to be merged, but they should be in "good
shape" and posted for code review [2]. If you're wondering what "good
shape" means, patches should adhere to the coding guidelines [3] and
be well tested. Unit tests and tests for the Asterisk Test Suite are
always a welcome addition with any new feature, and certainly help
reviewers verify the correctness of new features.

As Asterisk 13 will be a Long Term Support (LTS) release, a large
focus of the efforts of the Asterisk Developer community has been on
testing and enhancing the new PJSIP stack, APIs, and bridging core. If
you haven't tried out the new features, now would be a great time to
take a look at what exists, help with testing, and discuss needed
capabilities on this mailing list.
