[Asterisk-Users] CLUELESS NEWBIE needs help making an outbound sip call to PSTN

[Steve]

How does one differentiate betweek Asterisk CVS HEAD or CVS STABLE?

I go to the website (asterisk.org) and they simply give instructions on 
how to download the latest source.

Only one version...

What exactly is "HEAD" and how do you download that vs. the normal or 
stable release?

Thanks!

Steve
