FreeSWITCH 1.0.4pre9 Now Available

June 29th, 2009

The inexorable march to the official release of FreeSWITCH 1.0.4 continues. Version 1.0.4pre9 is now availble for immediate download. All those not using the latest SVN are encouraged to upgrade as soon as possible. The tarball is available here.

This latest pre-release is now the most stable version of FreeSWITCH available. There have been numerous improvements and bug fixes. The community has been providing a lot of feedback and the developers are doing a good job of addressing any issues that are found. There are new features as well. One in particular that you may appreciate is a new FS API command: show distinct_channels.

Please keep those bug reports and feedback flowing. The developers are working very hard to make sure that every bug is squashed and every user concern is addressed. Keep up the good work.

FreeSWITCH 1.0.4pre8 Now Available

May 26th, 2009

The FreeSWITCH team is pleased to announce the immediate availability of version 1.0.4pre8. This latest release is the most stable and secure version of FreeSWITCH to date. All are encouraged to update as soon as possible. The latest files are available at files.freeswitch.org.

The newest release of FreeSWITCH adds new features and improvements in stability, security, and performance. For example, support for ZRTP (www.zfone.com) was recently added. ZRTP is an opportunistic encryption protocol that allows for automatic encryption of RTP streams when both endpoints are ZRTP-enabled. Combining ZRTP with TLS, which encrypts signaling information, allows for complete end-to-end security in FreeSWITCH.

FreeSWITCH 1.0.4pre7 Now Available

May 6th, 2009

The FreeSWITCH dev team is continuing to make good progress on the road to officially releasing FreeSWITCH version 1.0.4. Please download the latest version here and put it into production as soon as possible. Remember, these prereleases are actually the most stable version of FreeSWITCH that you can get. However, we we’ve noticed that some have been using mod_loopback in creative ways and possibly have been relying upon loopback channels behaving in what might be called unnatural ways. We especially need those using mod_loopback to get updated and offer feedback.

As always, if you are already on SVN trunk then please just do a “make current” to get your system updated.

Thanks for helping to make FreeSWITCH so awesome!
