I'm currently uploading new images built from the 0.7 branch to the 
'beta-firmware' repository at http://mirror.astlinux.org.  These images 
were built using the current default packages (except without g729 sound 
files).  Unless something major is found, we should be releasing final 
images late next week.

Please grab these images and test!  Most of the developers have been 
running releases from this branch for several months.

This release does take a little more ram than the 0.6 releases.  We're 
working on some options to bring that size down in future releases.  If 
you are using less than 512MB of system ram, you may want to add 'noram' 
to the KCMD line in the astlinux-0.7-XXXX.run.conf file to prevent using 
too much ram.

One possible option around this problem is to remove the sounds from the 
default image.  We would instead add a script or perhaps a web-interface 
option to download your preferred sound files to the unionfs partition. 
  Sound files change very infrequently, so this is likely the direction 
we will go.

I've built these images without g729 sound files.  If you need g729 
sound files, you can download the asterisk-core-sounds files in g729 
format then expand them into the /var/lib/asterisk/sounds directory. 
They will be placed on the correct location on the unionfs partition for 
you and will be available for immediate use (after restarting asterisk). 
  I have a few boxes with this configuration in production use right 
now.  Works quite well and significantly reduces the footprint of the 
'os' image.
