[asterisk-users] Discussion: Are we ready to leave 1.4 behind?

[Bryant Zimmerman]

I will throw in my 2 cents on this. I agree that 1.8 is not as stable as it 
needs to be. From my perspective I will continue to use the 1.4.x or 
1.6.2.x release that is the best fit for me and it should continue to do 
what it does and it get's it's security releases.

If the primary development focus is moved to 1.8 to get the lead out and 
stabilize it than that is what I want. New work on 1.10 should only be 
under taken after 1.8.x is stable then we can tinker with the newer stuff. 
Making it stable makes it stronger. As far as I can see 1.4.x is stable and 
that is what people want use it until 1.8.x is where you want it but test 
1.8.x help find the bugs so you can make the move otherwise stay with the 
solid 1.4.x and wait for others to find the bugs in the newer versions. I 
know of several companies that are on 1.2 and will make the move to a new 
version only if 1.2 fails them and it has not for their needs. Again we do 
need 1.8 to be stabilized quickly the stuck voicemail issues and system 
crashes are driving me crazy. 

Thanks to all of the developers who work on asterisk. The core makes my 
business possible. Keep up the good work

Thanks
Bryant
