I have been using 1.6.1.18 after having transfer issues with early
1.6.2 releases and phones becoming unreachable from the below bug.

Luckily the fix for this bug is in 1.6.2.8-rc1. I'll probably just
stay on 1.6.1.18 until 1.8 comes out as it has been the best of the
1.6.x series. The first 1.6.1 releases had major issues with DTMF
detection. Then there was the TCP SIP issues with Exchange UM. I've
found 1.6.1.18 to work all around with only a minor DTMF issue with
Exchange UM that I was able to patch.
