> The Asterisk development team is pleased to announce new releases of
> Asterisk, Asterisk-Addons, Zaptel, and for the first time, DAHDI.

> This is a set of coordinated releases intended to begin the transition

> http://blogs.digium.com/2008/05/19/zaptel-project-being-renamed-to-dahdi/
>
> The list of packages released today includes:
>
> zaptel 1.2.27
> zaptel 1.4.12
> dahdi-linux 2.0.0-rc3
> dahdi-tools 2.0.0-rc2
> dahdi-linux-complete 2.0.0-rc3+2.0.0-rc2
> asterisk 1.4.22-rc3
> asterisk 1.6.0-rc4
> asterisk-addons 1.6.0-rc1
>
> All of these packages are available on http://downloads.digium.com in
> their respective directories. Detailed information about each package
> release is included below.
>
> === zaptel-1.2.27 ===
>
> This will be the final release of Zaptel made from the 1.2 release
> branch. This release includes a number of bug fixes and other
> improvements, most notably compatibility with the 2.6.26 and 2.6.27
> kernels and a fix for wctdm driver (for TDM400P cards) that corrects a
> problem introduced in 1.2.26 that caused FXO ports to not properly
> recognize incoming calls.
>
> The change log for this release is here:
>
> http://downloads.digium.com/pub/telephony/zaptel/releases/ChangeLog-1.2.27
>
> === zaptel-1.4.12 ===
>
> This will be the final release of Zaptel made from the 1.4 release
> branch. This release includes a number of bugs fixes and other
> improvements, including the changes that are listed above for the  
> Zaptel
> 1.2.27 release.
>
> In addition, there are two major changes in this release:
>
>   - Support for the Digium TC400B transcoder card has been completely
> rewritten, and the API used by Asterisk (or any other application) to
> the card has been changed significantly. The result of this work is  
> that
> the transcoder interface is more reliable and stable, and it supports
> variable-sized G.729 frames (including G.729B silence detection  
> frames).
> However, that means that any Asterisk user using a TC400B who wants to
> upgrade to this version of Zaptel must *also* upgrade their version of
> Asterisk to one of the releases included in this announcement; older
> versions of Asterisk will not be able to use the transcoder support in
> this release of Zaptel.
>
>   - To help users make the transition to DAHDI (and especially if they
> need to move back to Zaptel for some reason), this version of Zaptel
> contains installation steps that will *uninstall* the important  
> parts of
> DAHDI if they are present on the system during the 'make install'  
> step.
> This will allow a user to 'switch back' to Zaptel from DAHDI without
> having to manually uninstall any portions of DAHDI.
>
> The change log for this release is here:

> http://downloads.digium.com/pub/telephony/zaptel/releases/ChangeLog-1.4.12
>
> === dahdi-linux-complete-2.0.0-rc3+2.0.0-rc2 ===
>
> This release combines dahdi-linux-2.0.0-rc3 and dahdi-tools-2.0.0-rc2
> into a single download, one-package installation process, so that  
> users
> who are installing DAHDI for the first time don't have to download and
> install the dahdi-linux and dahdi-tools packages separately.
>
> === dahdi-linux-2.0.0-rc3 ===
>
> This is the first release candidate of the DAHDI Linux kernel modules
> package, which replaces the kernel modules components of Zaptel. It
> contains all the functionality of Zaptel 1.4 plus many improvements,  
> but
> also has some old (generally unsupported) functionality from Zaptel
> removed, including (but not limited to):
>
>   - Support for Linux 2.4.x kernels
>   - Support for devfs dynamic device filesystems
>   - The 'torisa' and 'wcusb' drivers
>
> Information on upgrading from Zaptel to DAHDI can be found in the

> against *either* Zaptel or DAHDI, but since Zaptel 1.4.12 is the last
> release of Zaptel 1.4, users are encouraged to transition to DAHDI as
> soon as they can, so that they will be able to continue to receive bug
> fixes and other improvements.
