Announcing Pre-Release Version: astlinux-1.3-4637-eff0be

Many under-the-hood updates:
        New toolchain: glibc 2.27, binutils 2.29.1, gcc 6.5.0, using 
crosstool-ng-1.24.0
        udev, now use eudev version 3.2.9
        kmod, version 27, new package which replaces module-init-tools

** IMPORTANT NOTICE

-- AstLinux now only supports 64-bit, x86_64 architectures.

-- Current supported board types are: "genx86_64", "genx86_64-serial" and 
"genx86_64-vm"

** The AstLinux Team is regularly upgrading packages containing security and 
bug fixes as well as adding new features of our own.

-- Linux Kernel 3.16.83 (version bump), security and bug fixes

-- unionfs, move from old kernel unionfs to FUSE unionfs version 2.1
        To better secure the filesystem, now only '/etc' and '/stat' will be 
read-write
        over the read-only base firmware image.  Previously '/' (everything) 
was overlaid.
        Additionally, mount ASTURW as /mnt/asturw instead of 
/oldroot/mnt/asturw .

-- New rc.conf variable ASTERISK_RW_MODULES_DIR, give directory 
/usr/lib/asterisk/modules/
        read/write permissions, "yes" or "no", defaults to "no".
        Example: If you had a codec_g729a.so module installed, you must define: 
ASTERISK_RW_MODULES_DIR="yes"
        Note: With AstLinux 1.3.8 and older this was implied to be "yes".

-- Asterisk 13.23.1 ('13se' version)
        Older than latest Asterisk 13.x version but more tested, built 
--without-pjproject

-- Asterisk 13.33.0 (version bump) and 16.10.0 (version bump)

-- OpenSSL, version bump to 1.1.1g, security fix: CVE-2020-1967

-- WireGuard VPN, module 1.0.20200429 (version bump), tools 1.0.20200319 (no 
change)

-- OpenVPN, version bump to 2.4.9, security fix: CVE-2020-11810
