While bugs have crept up they haven't really been in the performance or 
stability area. It's mostly been features and making it a better 
experience for the users of ARI. Documentation wise the wiki[1] has a 
lot of great information including some example usage and a list of 
libraries. There's also a new asterisk-app-dev mailing list which is 
focused on applications built upon Asterisk.

Cheers,
