[asterisk-users] SafiServer and SafiWorkshop 1.2 With Web Services Released

[zac wolfe]

 SafiServer and SafiWorkshop 1.2 is here!

This is a seminal release for us as the product is now more stable,
powerful, and easy to use than ever.  We've also added a new ActionStep
"CallWSByWSDL" that allows you to easily consume Web Services from your
Saflet, providing you with even more integration possibilities for your
IVR/Callflow applications.  The release of this ActionStep is merely the
first of many non-telephony-specific ActionSteps that are in the works,
representing an overall commitment to making SafiWorkshop and SafiServer the
most flexible and powerful development and integration tools for Asterisk on
the market (free or otherwise).

The Web Services integration functionality is currently in Alpha and we'd
love to hear your feedback and ideas for how to improve it.  This
screencast<http://www.safisystems.com/index.cfm?pageMode=screencasts&scid=20>should
help get you started.

Here's a summary of some of the changes with this release:

   editors.
