Dialplan functions
------------------
* Added the DEVICE_STATE() dialplan function which allows retrieving any device
- state in the dialplan, as well as creating custom device states that are
- controllable from the dialplan.

* Extend CALLERID() function with "pres" and "ton" parameters to
fetch string representation of calling number presentation indicator
and numeric representation of type of calling number value.
* MailboxExists converted to dialplan function
* A new option to Dial() for telling IP phones not to count the call
- as "missed" when dial times out and cancels.

* Added LOCK(), TRYLOCK(), and UNLOCK(), which provide a single level dialplan

- held for any given channel. Also, locks are automatically freed when a
- channel is hung up.

* Added HINT() dialplan function that allows retrieving hint information.

* Added EXTENSION_STATE() dialplan function which allows retrieving the state

* Added SYSINFO() dialplan function which allows retrieval of system information
states it is not needed. For phones, however, that do require it the "registertrying" option
has been added so it can be enabled.
* A new option called "callcounter" (global/peer/user level) enables call counters needed
- for better status reports needed for queues and SIP subscriptions. (Call-Limit was previously

* New settings for timer T1 and timer B on a global level or per device. This makes it
- possible to force timeout faster on non-responsive SIP servers. These settings are
- considered advanced, so don't use them unless you have a problem.

* Added a new global and per-peer option, qualifyfreq, which allows you to configure
the qualify frequency.
* Added experimental support for video send & receive to chan_oss.
This requires SDL and ffmpeg/avcodec, plus Video4Linux or X11 to act as
a video source.
- * Added a new channel driver, chan_console, which uses portaudio as a cross
- platform audio interface. It was written as a channel driver that would
- work with Mac CoreAudio, but portaudio supports a number of other audio
- interfaces, as well. Note that this channel driver requires v19 or higher
- of portaudio; older versions have a different API.
Phone channel changes (chan_phone)
----------------------------------
----------------------------------------
* SS7 support in chan_zap (via libss7 library)
* In India, some carriers transmit CID via dtmf. Some code has been added
- that will handle some situations. The cidstart=polarity_IN choice has been added for
- those carriers that transmit CID via dtmf after a polarity change.

* CID matching information is now shown when doing 'dialplan show'.
* Added zap show version CLI command to chan_zap.
* Added setvar support to zapata.conf channel entries.

* Added signalling type 'auto', which attempts to use the same signalling type
- for a channel as configured in Zaptel. This is primarily designed for analog
- ports, but will also work for digital ports that are configured for FXS or FXO
- signalling types. This mode is also the default now, so if your zapata.conf
- does not specify signalling for a channel (which is unlikely as the sample
- configuration file has always recommended specifying it for every channel) then
- the 'auto' mode will be used for that channel if possible.

-A new channel driver: Unistim
------------------------------
+New Channel Drivers
+-------------------
* Added a new channel driver, chan_unistim. See doc/unistim.txt and
configs/unistim.conf.sample for details. This new channel driver allows
you to use Nortel i2002, i2004, and i2050 phones with Asterisk.

DUNDi changes
-------------
to this music on hold class.
* Support for realtime music on hold has been added.
* In conjunction with the realtime music on hold, a general section has
- been added to musiconhold.conf, its sole variable is cachertclasses. If this
- is set, then music on hold classes found in realtime will be cached in memory.

AEL Changes
-----------
fashion: Set(LOCAL(myvar)=someval); ("local" is now
an AEL keyword).
* utils/conf2ael introduced. Will convert an extensions.conf
- file into extensions.ael. Very crude and unfinished, but
- will be improved as time goes by. Should be useful for a

Call Features (res_features) Changes
------------------------------------
and to ensure that the oldest log file gets deleted.
* Added realtime support for the queue log
-Miscellaneous
--------------
- * Ability to use libcap to set high ToS bits when non-root
- on Linux. If configure is unable to find libcap then you
- can use --with-cap to specify the path.
- * Added maxfiles option to options section of asterisk.conf which allows you to specify
- what Asterisk should set as the maximum number of open files when it loads.
- * Added the jittertargetextra configuration option.
+Miscellaneous New Modules
+-------------------------
* Added a new CDR module, cdr_sqlite3_custom.
- * The cdr_manager module has a [mappings] feature, like cdr_custom,
- to add fields to the manager event from the CDR variables.
* Added a new realtime configuration module, res_config_sqlite
- * Added support for setting the CoS for VLAN traffic (802.1p). See the sample
- configuration files for the IP channel drivers. The new option is "cos".
- This information is also documented in doc/qos.tex, or the IP Quality of Service
- section of asterisk.pdf.
- * When originating a call using AMI or pbx_spool that fails the reason for failure
- will now be available in the failed extension using the REASON dialplan variable.
- * Added support for reading the TOUCH_MONITOR_PREFIX channel variable.
- It allows you to configure a prefix for auto-monitor recordings.
- * Added support for writing and running your dialplan in lua. See
- configs/extensions.lua.sample for examples of how to do this.
- * A new extension pattern matching algorithm, based on a trie, is introduced
- here, that could noticeably speed up mid-sized to large dialplans.
- It is NOT used by default, as duplicating the behaviour of the old pattern
- matcher is still under development. A config file option, in extensions.conf,
- in the [general] section, called "extenpatternmatchingnew", is by default
- set to false; setting that to true will force the use of the new algorithm.
- Also, the cli commands "dialplan set extenpatternmatchingnew true/false" can
- be used to switch the algorithms at run time.
- * A new option when starting a remote asterisk (rasterisk, asterisk -r) for
- specifying which socket to use to connect to the running Asterisk daemon
- (-s)
* Added a new codec translation module, codec_resample, which re-samples
signed linear audio between 8 kHz and 16 kHz to help support wideband
codecs.

vocoders or doing recording or analysis of the channel's audio in another
application.
