+Changes since Asterisk 1.0:
 
-Asterisk 1.0.10
-
- -- chan_local
-    -- In releases 1.0.8 and 1.0.9, the Local channels that are created would
-       not be masqueraded into the new channel type.  This has now been fixed.
- -- chan_sip
-    -- The 'insecure' options have been changed to support matching peersby IP
-       only, not requiring authentication on incoming invites, or both. Before,
-       to not require authentication on incoming invites also required matching
-       peers based on IP only.
- -- chan_zap
-    -- Before, call waiting could occur during the initial ringing on the line.
-       This has now been fixed.
- -- app_disa
-    -- We will now not set the accountcode if one is not supplied. 
- -- app_meetme
-    -- If the first caller into a conference hangs up while being prompted for
-       the conference pin number, the conference will no longer be held open.
- -- app_userevent
-    -- Events created with this application were indicated as a "call" event
-       instead of a "user" event.  This made the "user" event permissions
-       not work correctly.
- -- app_voicemail
-    -- When using the externpass option for voicemail, the password will be
-       immediately updated in memory as well, instead of having to wait for
-       the next time the configuration is reloaded. 
- -- app_zapras
-    -- We now ensure buffer policy is restored after RAS is done with a channel.
-       This could cause audio problems on the channel after zapras is done
-       with it. 
- -- res_agi
-    -- We now unmask the SIGHUP signal before executing an AGI script.  This
-       fixes problems where some AGI scripts would continue running long after
-       the call is over.
- -- extensions
-    -- A potential crash has been fixed when calling LEN() to get the length of
-       a string that was 80 characters or larger.
- -- logger
-    -- The Asterisk logger will automatically detect when a log file needs to
-       be rotated.  However, this feature could put Asterisk in a nasty loop
-       that would result in a crash.
- -- general
-    -- Added man pages for astgenkey, autosupport, and safe_asterisk
-
-Asterisk 1.0.9
-
- -- fix bug in callerid matching in the dialplan that was introduced in 1.0.8
-
-Asterisk 1.0.8
-
- -- chan_zap
-    -- Asterisk will now also look in the regular context for the fax extension
-       while executing a macro.  Previously, for this to work, the fax extension
-       would have to be included in the macro definition.
-    -- On some systems, ALERTING will be sent after PROCEEDING, so code has been
-       added to account for this case.
-    -- If no extension is specified on an overlap call, the 's' extension will 
-       be used.
- -- chan_sip
-    -- We no longer send a "to" tag on "100 Trying" messages, as it is 
-       inappropriate to do so.
-    -- We now respond correctly to an invite for T.38 with a "488 Not acceptable
-       here"
-    -- We now discard saved tags on 401/407 responses in case the provider we're
-       talking to tries to pull a dirty trick on us and change it.
-    -- rtptimeout options will now be correctly set on a peer basis rather than
-       only global
- -- chan_mgcp
-    -- Fixed setting of accountcode
-    -- Fixed where *67 to block callerid only worked for first call
- -- chan_agent
-    -- We now will not pass audio until the agent has acked the call if the 
-       configuration
-       is set up for the agent to do so.
- -- chan_alsa
-    -- Fixed problems with the unloading of this module
- -- res_agi
-    -- A fix has been added to prevent calls from being hung up when more than 
-       one call is executing an AGI script calling the GET DATA command.
-    -- AGI scripts will now continue to run even if a file was not found with
-       the GET DATA command.
-    -- When calling SAY NUMBER with a number like 09, we will now say "nine" 
-       instead of "zero"
- -- app_dial
-    -- There was a problem where text frames would not be forwarded before the
-       channel has been answered. 
- -- app_disa
-    -- Fixed the timeout used when no password is set
- -- app_queue
-    -- Distinctive ring has been fixed to work for queue members
-  -- rtp
-    -- Fixed a logic error when setting the "rtpchecksums" option
- -- say.c
-    -- A problem has been fixed with saying the date in Spanish.
- -- Makefile
-    -- A line was missing for the autosupport script that caused "make rpm" to 
-       fail
- -- format_wav_gsm
-    -- Fixed a problem with wav formatting that prevented files from being 
-       played in some media players
- -- pbx_spool
-    -- Fixed if the last line of text in a file for the call spool did not 
-       contain a new line, it would not be processed
- -- logger
-    -- Fixed the logger so that color escape sequences wouldn't be sent to the 
-       logs
- -- format_sln
-    -- A lot of changes were made to correctly handle signed linear format on
-       big endian machines
- -- asterisk.conf
-     -- fix 'highpriority' option for asterisk.conf
-
-Asterisk 1.0.7
-
- -- chan_sip
-    -- The fix for some codec availibility issues in 1.0.6 caused music on hold
-       problems, but has now been fixed.
- -- chan_skinny
-    -- A check has been added to avoid a crash.
- -- chan_iax2
-    -- A feature has been added to CVS head to have the option of sending 
-       timestamps with trunk frames.  It is not supported in 1.0, but a change 
-       has been made so that it will at least not choke if sent trunk
-       timestamps.
- -- app_voicemail
-    -- Some checks have been added to avoid a crash.
- -- speex
-    -- The path /usr/include/speex has been added for a place to look for the 
-       speex header.
-
-Asterisk 1.0.6
-
- -- chan_iax2:
-    -- Fixed a bug dealing with a division by zero that could cause a crash
- -- chan_sip:
-    -- Behavior was changed so that when a registration fails due to DNS 
-       resolution issues, a retry will be attempted in 20 seconds.
-    -- Peer settings were not reset to null values when reloading the 
-       configuration file. Behavior has been changed so that these values are 
-       now cleared.
-    -- 'restrictcid' now properly works on MySQL peers.
-    -- Only use the default callerid if it has been specified.
-    -- Asterisk was not sending the same From: line in SIP messages during 
-       certain times. Fixed to make sure it stays the same. This makes some 
-       providers happier, to a working state.
-    -- Certain circumstances involving a blank callerid caused asterisk to 
-       segmentation fault.
-    -- There was a problem incorrectly matching codec availablity when global 
-       preferences were different from that of the user.  To fix this, 
-       processing of SDP data has been moved to after determining who the call 
-       is coming from.
-    -- Asterisk would run out of RTP ports while waiting for SUBSCRIBE's to 
-       expire even though an RTP port isn't needed in this case.  This has been
-       fixed by releasing the ports early.
- -- chan_zap:
-    -- During a certain scenario when using flash and '#' transfers you would 
-       hear the other person and the music they were hearing. This has been 
-       fixed.
-    -- A fix for a compilation issue with gcc4 was added.
- -- chan_modem_bestdata:
-    -- A fix for a compilation issue with gcc4 was added.
- -- format_g729:
-    -- Treat a 10-byte read as an end of file indication instead of an error. 
-       Some G729 encoders like to put 10-bytes at the end to indicate this.
- -- res_features:
-    -- During certain situations when parking a call, both endpoints would get 
-       musiconhold. This has been fixed so the individual who parked the call 
-       will hear the digits and not musiconhold.
- -- app_dial:
-    -- DIALEDPEERNUMBER is now being set, so if you attempted to use it in the 
-       past and failed, it should work now.
-    -- A callerid change caused many headaches, this has been reversed to the 
-       original 1.0 behavior.
-    -- A crash caused with the combination of the 'g' option and # transfer was
-       fixed.
- -- app_voicemail:
-    -- If two people hit the voicemail system at the same time, and were leaving
-       a message the second message was overwriting the first. This has been 
-       fixed so that each one is distinct and will not overwrite eachother.
- -- cdr_tds:
-    -- If the server you were using was going down, it had the potential to 
-       bring your asterisk server down with it. Extra stuff has been added so 
-       as to bring in more error/connection checking.
- -- cdr_pgsql:
-    -- This will now attempt to reconnect after a connection problem.
- -- IAXY firmware:
-    -- This has been updated to version 23.  It includes a fix for lost
-       registrations.
- -- internals
-    -- Behavior was changed for 'show codec <number>' to make it more intuitive.
-    -- DNS failures and asterisk do not get along too well, this is not totally
-       the case anymore.
-    -- Asterisk will now handle DNS failures at startup more gracefully, and 
-       won't crash and burn
-    -- Choosing to append to a wave file would render the outputted wave file 
-       corrupt. Appending now works again.
-    -- If you failed to define certain keys, asterisk had the potential to crash
-       when seeing if you had used them.
-    -- Attempting to use such things as ${EXTEN:-1} gave a wrong return value. 
-       However, this was never a documented feature...
