I know it can be confusing, but i did not want to call the port asterisk100, if anybody has a better idea let me know. 1.4 is the oldest version we have in the tree and as long as it's kept up to date it should IMHO stay. 1.4 is a LTS release which will be supported until April of next year. This gives people a bit more time to migrate to the next LTS release, which is 1.8. Cheers, Florian
