[asterisk-users] Upgrade to Asterisk 1.4 - it's one year's old!

[Mindaugas Kezys]

Hello everybody,

Since 1.4 release our company installed more then 200 Asterisk servers using Asterisk 1.4 version.

At start we had several bugs with SIP channel and CDR handling but starting from 1.4.6 or something it works without problems.

We are really happy with 1.4 and thank you for your great job!

Friends in the Asterisk community,

I'm kind of interested in the slow uptake of Asterisk 1.4. Between 1.2  
and 1.4 there's been a lot of
important development. New code cleanups, optimization, new functions.

I realize that 1.4 at release time wasn't ready for release, but we've  
spent one year polishing it,
working hard with bug fixes. The 1.4 that is in distribution now is  
very different from the young
and immature product that was release before Christmas in 2006.  
Testing, testing, testing
and hard work from developers has changed this and the 1.4 personality  
is now much
more grown-up and mature :-)

I wonder if there are any major obstacles for upgrading.

- Bugs that are still open?
- Bugs that are not reported?
- Not enough reasons to upgrade, since 1.2 really works well
- Just a bad karma for 1.4

When responding, remember that we don't add new features to 1.4 after  
release, so I'm
not looking for a wishlist - that's for the coming release. We need to  
make a released
product stable, not add new features and potential scary bugs.

Success stories with 1.4 are also welcome. "Upgrading to 1.4 doubled  
our revenues
in a month and gave us 200% more quality in the voice channels" or  
"Asterisk 1.4
gave us more reliable pizza deliveries and also fixed the bad taste of  
the coffee in our
vending machine". Anything.

Also, I would like input on what you consider the most important new  
feature in 1.4.
I will try to make a list based on the feedback. Feel free to send  
feedback to the
list or in a private e-mail to me directly.

Let's make 1.4 the choice for everyone's PBX - from small home systems  
to large
scale carrier platforms!

/Olle
