Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk 1.6.0.11-rc2, 1.6.1.2, 1.6.1.3-rc1, and 1.6.2.0-beta4 Release Announcement

That's interesting.  I was always under the impression from what I read
that T.38 was an unreliable, experimental crap-shoot at best and
something that should be avoided for production systems - that the only
reliable solution for FAX was still PSTN lines.  Is this no longer true
and all the dire caveats about T.38 faxing obsolete?

This is quite important to us as we are planning to launch a FAX service
for our clients shortly and are dreading a return to banks of modems to
handle analog lines.  Thanks - John

 1.6.0.11-rc2 from 1.6.0.10 and try it.
 
 I was amazed.  Without having to change anything in my configuration
 faxes just worked.  I have tested it with multiple faxes, short and
 long, and faxes with images and they all came through.
 
 Well done guys.

The chaneglog doesn't mention anything on fixing a security issue. Even worse, 
the changelog doesn't mention anyting at all besides the version increment. 
Is the fix really applied?

The fix is applied. I just checked to be sure. I can't say for sure why the 
change did not show up in the changelog, but I'm guessing the reason is that 
the 
tag for the release was created first, and then the specific fix was applied to 
the tag instead of creating the tag based off an already-fixed branch. This was 
an oversight on our part, and we'll do our best not to make such a mistake 
again.
