I am testing 1.8 for production and it is looking very good. I am making some changes to accommodate some minor dialplan changes from 1.6. Our 1.4 is very solid 1.6 has some issues with DTMF issues when used with Sonus on the back end. 1.8 is looking very good and we hope to go production before the end of the year. <br>
<br>
If you have to change righ now are you using custom dialplan code? If you are I would roll the dice and go for 1.8 this will give you the longest life span. If not there is no real big hit for stepping from 1.4 to 1.8. The other issue is if you want really detailed logging for call records the CEL method in 1.8 is the way to go. You will need to be able to boil the data down but it is there. I have seen a few kinks in the current version but it looks like they will be worked out with some incremental updates.<br>
<br>
Our hope is to be fully 1.8 on all of our backbone production units by the end of Jan 2011 with our first unit by December 2010.<br>
I would shy away of 1.6.x based on our experience. Our 1.6.x boxes will move before our 1.4.x boxes.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
Bryant<br>

<br>
This is not the case. Both 1.8 and 1.4 are in the same state right now.<br>
The only difference in support level is that 1.4's EOL is much sooner than<br>
the EOL for 1.8. 1.6.2 will EOL at approximately the same time as 1.4.<br>
See https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+Versions for the<br>
most up-to-date schedule.<br>
