AMI - The manager (TCP/TLS/HTTP)
--------------------------------
* Manager has undergone a lot of changes, all of them documented
in doc/manager_1_1.txt
* Manager version has changed to 1.1
* Added a new action 'CoreShowChannels' to list currently defined channels
and some information about them.
* Added a new action 'SIPshowregistry' to list SIP registrations.
@ -137,6 +140,48 @@ OSS Channel changes
-------------------
* Added experimental support for video under X windows
Phone channel changes (chan_phone)
----------------------------------
* Added G729 passthrough support to chan_phone for Sigma Designs boards.
H.323 channel Changes
---------------------
* H323 remote hold notification support added (by NOTIFY message
and/or H.450 supplementary service)
Local channel changes
---------------------
* The device state functionality in the Local channel driver has been updated
to indicate INUSE or NOT_INUSE when a Local channel is being used as opposed
to just UNKNOWN if the extension exists.
* Added jitterbuffer support for chan_local. This allows you to use the
generic jitterbuffer on incoming calls going to Asterisk applications.
For example, this would allow you to use a jitterbuffer for an incoming
SIP call to Voicemail by putting a Local channel in the middle. This
feature is enabled by using the 'j' option in the Dial string to the Local
channel in conjunction with the existing 'n' option for local channels.
Zaptel channel driver (chan_zap) Changes
----------------------------------------
* 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 two new options: mwimonitor and mwimonitornotify. These options allow
you to enable MWI monitoring on FXO lines. When the MWI state changes,
the script specified in the mwimonitornotify option is executed. An internal
event indicating the new state of the mailbox is also generated, so that
the normal MWI facilities in Asterisk work as usual.
A new channel driver: Unistim
-----------------------------
* 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.

* Added the ability to specify arguments to the Dial application when using

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.
Logger changes
--------------
* Added rotatestrategy option to logger.conf, along with two new options:
"timestamp" which will use the time to name the logger files instead of
sequence number; and "rotate", which rotates the names of the logfiles,

* 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.
* Added G729 passthrough support to chan_phone for Sigma Designs boards.
* 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.

This information is also documented in doc/qos.tex, or the IP Quality of Service
section of asterisk.pdf.

to just UNKNOWN if the extension exists.
* 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.
* 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.
* 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
