The binary compatibility report is at
http://www.libopenr2.org/reports/abi_report_1.3.0_to_1.3.1.html
The most significant changes are:
– Proper DTMF R2 support, including new timers to tweak the end of DTMF timeout.
– Indonesian variant
– Test for lib64 directory for installation in 64 bit
– Fixed some build issues including support for Linux/Sparc
The next week I will also be releasing openr2 2.0.0 which breaks API
and ABI compatibility with openr2 1.x series. Releases 1.x have proven
to be stable now and they will enter maintenance mode (no new variants
nor features will be added there).
Releases 2.x will be used for future Asterisk versions (1.10??) and
for FreeSWITCH and Windows support.

Several bugs were fixed, everyone is encouraged to upgrade to this new release, which is totally API/ABI compatible with previous openr2 versions.

I also created some basic documentation about how to set it up: http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/OpenZAP_OpenR2
This means that from now on FreeSWITCH will support MFC-R2 signaling with the same stack that Asterisk is using since 1.6.2
I still need to do some work on the documentation and lots of stress testing, but you can start playing with it and bugging me if it does not work

I want to thank all the people that supported the development of OpenR2 with code, testing and build infrastructure. Particularly thanks to:
Neocenter, company located at México, Distrito Federal, that supported the development of OpenR2 from the very beginning, even when I myself was not even sure it could work. Thanks Octavio, Pop and Alejandro.
Sangoma Technologies For their sponsorship during all this time.
Digium Inc for creating Asterisk.
Alexandre Alencar for all his contributions to the project in different areas.
There is obviously more people that has contributed, you all know who you are

I expect the OpenR2 Brazilian community to keep growing even more now that the first release is about to be done.
Enough about Brazil. Let’s talk a bit about Canada. Just a few days after getting back to México from Brazil, I moved to Toronto, Canada in order to start working at Sangoma’s offices. What a change!, just yesterday we had a snow storm, just check this out:
But, aside of the weather, everything else is great. We got a nice apartment about 2 blocks from the CN Tower and the cable guy just came a few minutes ago to install internet, tv and phone, and look this:
Finally a decent internet connection. As if that was not enough for Christmas gift (for me anyway), Sangoma gave everyone in the engineering department a very nice Christmas present: An Acer Aspire One, ain’t that cool?
So, past Thursday was my first day working at Sangoma’s offices and I must say I think I’m gonna enjoy my work like never before. No stupid meetings anymore, just technical meetings discussing relevant aspects of development. Management reports just don’t exist, we briefly speak to our manager once in a while, who happens to *really* know how to architect and write programs and in fact is one of the biggest code producers in the company, not a guy who can’t code and is promoted to a management position.
In conclusion, Sangoma rulez
