User Notes:
-
app_dial: Add dial time for progress/ringing.
The timeout argument to Dial now allows
specifying the maximum amount of time to dial if
early media is not received. -
app_voicemail: Allow preventing mark messages as urgent.
The leaveurgent mailbox option can now be used to
control whether callers may leave messages marked as ‘Urgent’. -
Stir/Shaken Refactor
Asterisk’s stir-shaken feature has been refactored to
correct interoperability, RFC compliance, and performance issues.
See STIR-SHAKEN - Asterisk Documentation for more
information. -
Upgrade bundled pjproject to 2.14.
Bundled pjproject has been upgraded to 2.14. For more
information on what all is included in this change, check out the
pjproject Github page: Releases · pjsip/pjproject · GitHub -
app_speech_utils.c: Allow partial speech results.
The SpeechBackground dialplan application now supports a ‘p’
option that will return partial results from speech engines that
provide them when a timeout occurs. -
app_chanspy: Add ‘D’ option for dual-channel audio
The ChanSpy application now accepts the ‘D’ option which
will interleave the spied audio within the outgoing frames. The
purpose of this is to allow the audio to be read as a Dual channel
stream with separate incoming and outgoing audio. Setting both the
‘o’ option and the ‘D’ option and results in the ‘D’ option being
ignored. -
chan_dahdi: Allow MWI to be manually toggled on channels.
The ‘dahdi set mwi’ now allows MWI on channels
to be manually toggled if needed for troubleshooting.
Resolves: #440

Stir/Shaken Refactor
The stir-shaken refactor is a breaking change but since
it’s not working now we don’t think it matters. The
stir_shaken.conf file has changed significantly which means that
existing ones WILL need to be changed. The stir_shaken.conf.sample
file in configs/samples/ has quite a bit more information. This is
also an ABI breaking change since some of the existing objects
needed to be changed or removed, and new ones added. Additionally,
if res_stir_shaken is enabled in menuselect, you’ll need to either
have the development package for libjwt v1.15.3 installed or use
the --with-libjwt-bundled option with ./configure.
