What does it say about your technical knowledge if you don't do the
minor things such as properly start a new thread?

I tend to update production machines only when there is problems or
features that require them. That being said, I have our core phone
switch stuck on an older version of asterisk as it does nothing more
than route calls around and doesn't need special features. It takes all
our inbound calls from our PRI and drops them on our T1 channel bank,
redirects some back to the PRI, and the rest go via IAX2 to 2-3 other
asterisk machines.

I have not updated our office switch since the loss of the original

Our other main asterisk machine just had a hard lock up over the
weekend, and we have replacement hardware enroute to us now that should
get here early next week. At that point I will be hard pressed to go
with current CVS when I haven't been testing more recent versions when I
know the versions I have have long uptime records.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] CVS Update Frequency

2004-03-11 Thread Scott Stingel
Never - unless I must have a new feature, or need a critical bug fix!

but, seriously, mine are production systems, and I don't use many of the
VoIP features of asterisk.  There is so much development going on in
asterisk, that you may want to update only an in-house, non-production
system, at first when you get a new CVS.  Then implement a rigorous test
protocol that you follow before you release new CVS's to the field.
