Why would anyone hate the most stable version of Asterisk?

What is ABE using these days?  If it is not 1.4, I wonder why?  Maybe so 
all the free developers and eager and silly early adopters can iron out 
the bugs, submit patches and sign away their rights.  I am sure if they 
are not using 1.4 it probably has something to do with reliability and 
the costs of supporting that release.  Any other theories? 

 From the readme http://www.digium.com/en/docs/ABE/README they have not 
progressed very far past 1.2.9.1

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Asterisk Business Edition B.1-1
 -- Added numerous bug fixes from 1.2.9.1, including chan_agent update

Steve Totaro
