Same here.  I got 1.4.22 for over a year now and millions of calls 
processed.  It doesn't skip a beat at all.  No need to upgrade whatsoever.

Not a typo, just a misreading of the bug report on my part. It has been
closed, and I haven't tried the 1.6 branch since then. I may have to try
it again when I get some time. As has been pointed out in this thread,
the time is required to convert my dialplan. I'm just a small home
operation so it isn't that important to me to be running the latest and
greatest as long as what I have works, and my wife is in the middle of a
political campaign so this is a bad time to have the phones be
unreliable. It was already a big time sink to convert from zaptel to
dahdi and get everything working, so I expect a significant period of
disruption in order to upgrade to 1.6.? When it becomes hard to find 1.4
packages for up-to-date OS's is when I will be motivated to upgrade (and
after the election in November when the campaign season is over).

I have been using 1.6.1.18 after having transfer issues with early
1.6.2 releases and phones becoming unreachable from the below bug.

https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=16936

Luckily the fix for this bug is in 1.6.2.8-rc1. I'll probably just
stay on 1.6.1.18 until 1.8 comes out as it has been the best of the
1.6.x series. The first 1.6.1 releases had major issues with DTMF
detection. Then there was the TCP SIP issues with Exchange UM. I've
found 1.6.1.18 to work all around with only a minor DTMF issue with
Exchange UM that I was able to patch.

That's the best approach.
No sense in upgrading, just for the sake of upgrading.

One of these days i'll abandon my 1.2.19 at home, but only because i
need some features (like gosub) that will make my life/dialplan a bit
easier..

Running it at the moment but the new phone system is not yet live. Seems 
to work fine apart from the pickup issue.

I can reproduce the same problem on our system. I was able to capture a 
dip debug and tcpdump so I have uploaded them to the ticket.

I'm still deploying 1.2 - Got one next week with an ISDN-30 connection and 
40 seats. It "just works" and ticks all the boxes I need to tick for this 
client, so why change?

Asterisk segfaults regularly.

If 1.2 or 1.4 do what you want, then forget 1.6 unitl it mature.

Is that a typo? That bug has been closed since September 20, 2009.

This sounds like a solution for cli_aliases.conf.

I am still running 1.4 because of this bug:

https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=15129

I haven't tried any 1.6 versions recently; looks like some patches have
been checked in since I last tried it, although the bug is not closed.
So I may have to try it again when I get some time.

meetme CLI arguments changed between 1.6.0 and 1.6.2
Don't know where the delta was, and I haven't looked.
I prefer the new syntax, and especially prefer the 'concise' option,
but it might break features people have built in the past.

Specifically,
1.6.0 'meetme' is replaced with 1.6.2 'meetme list'
1.6.2 'meetme' errors out, and requires an argument
1.6.0 'meetme list' would error out wanting a room argument
'meetme list ' works same on 1.6.0 and 1.6.2
'meetme list concise' and 'meetme list  concise' in 1.6.2 are nice.

[asterisk-users] Which issue is keeping you from updrading to 1.6.2 ?

[Olivier]

Hi,

I'm evaluating what could keep me from upgrading production systems to
1.6.2.
As 1.6.2 seems pretty close to 1.6.1 but I gave 1.6.2 a try but I met an
issue with BLF-pickup which kept me from going further.

Have you met other issues I should include include in my checklist ?
