[asterisk-users] asterisk upgrade

[Tim Sharp]

I am currently running 1.2.7.1 and it works just fine.  I personally like to stay 3 or 4 months behind the current release.  This time it is a bit longer because I don't feel comfortable with the stability of later releases.

That will get you into trouble when it _does_ break. 
I rather *test* new versions, fix any configuration problems and then
keep the live versions uptodate.
It can be quite a nightmare to skip lots of versions, particularly under
timepressure with a broken system at hand.
