<br>
We are running asterisk 1.2.x version in production environment since last 5
year and we have no issue at all, But now time to upgrade. and i heard about
1.8 which has introduce many features. I am wondering should I use asterisk 1.8
in production ? or should I go with 1.4 or 1.6 stable version? <br>
<br>
I would like if you suggest me which version would be good for production since
asterisk 1.8 still in beta process. <br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
S. Patel <br>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><font size=2 color=navy
face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>1.8 will
introduce many features and is the “supported standard”, which will
be important to you since you are on a “5 year upgrade” plan. It
also has more “opportunities” than the 1.4 version since it is
under active development and 1.4 is in a “patch only” state. If
immediate stability is your goal, you may want to stick with 1.4. If I were
going to bite the bullet on 1.6, I’d jump straight to 1.8 since there is
no “end-of-life” advantage.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
