Initial import of Asterisk 14. It has been tested to compile
and run, but not a lot of functional testing. This does not have the new PJSIP, which will be coming in a followup commit. This also does not have the patches for compiling with Clang. For upgrading instructions, please see: https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Upgrading+to+Asterisk+14 ----- 14.0.0 ----- The Asterisk Development Team is pleased to announce the release of Asterisk 14.0.0. Asterisk 14 is the next major release series of Asterisk. It is a Standard Support release, similar to Asterisk 12. For more information about support time lines for Asterisk releases, see the Asterisk versions page: https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+Versions For important information regarding upgrading to Asterisk 14, please see the Asterisk wiki: https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Upgrading+to+Asterisk+14 A short list of new features includes: * A complete overhaul of the core DNS support in Asterisk, including implementing full NAPTR and SRV support in the PJSIP stack via the libunbound library. * The ability to publish extension state to a SIP Subscription server, such as Kamailio. This includes the ability to automatically generate a hint in the dialplan based on device state changes using the new autohint setting. * Playback of media from a remote HTTP server via a URI is now supported by all dialplan applications and AGI. Media retrieved using a URI is cached in a media cache and re-used when possible. * When using ARI to manipulate media on a resource, a list of media resources can now be supplied. The media resources will be played back sequentially in the order that they are provided. * Channels created via ARI can now be created and handed off to Stasis for external control prior to performing the outbound dial. This enables applications to set additional state on the channel prior to dialing, as well as enabling certain early media scenarios. And much more! More information about the new features can be found on the Asterisk wiki: https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+14+Documentation A full list of all new features can also be found in the CHANGES file: https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/blob/14/CHANGES For a full list of changes in the current release, please see the ChangeLog: http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/releases/ChangeLog-14.0.0 Thank you for your continued support of Asterisk! ----- 14.0.1 ----- The Asterisk Development Team has announced the release of Asterisk 14.0.1.

+Asterisk is a complete PBX in software. It provides all of the
+features you would expect from a PBX and more. Asterisk does voice
+over IP in three protocols, and can interoperate with almost all
+standards-based telephony equipment using relatively inexpensive
+hardware.
+
+Asterisk provides Voicemail services with Directory, Call Conferencing,
+Interactive Voice Response, Call Queuing. It has support for
+three-way calling, caller ID services, ADSI, SIP and H.323 (as both
+client and gateway).
+
+This is a standard version. It is scheduled to go to security
+fixes only on October 24th, 2017, and EOL on October 24th, 2018.
+See here for more information about Asterisk versions:
+https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+Versions
+
+NOTE: This version does not work with the zaptel drivers. It
+requires the newer DAHDI drivers which are still being ported.
+So, there is no hardware support available at this moment.
