<br>
I am not going to try to detail every change, it's moving much too fast for that. If you want to follow the changes, it's time to start learning your way around git. We have moved any new fixes or development away from the SVN to a public repository in git. Everything ASL related is now in <<a href="https://github.com/AllStarLink" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/AllStarLin<wbr>k</a>> You do NOT need a git account to look at or even download the code from git.<br>
<br>
I am starting to move the repository from my own github account to the ASL repository. There are a number of updates I need to apply to the Debian and DIAL scripts. I will copy the cleaned up code into the ASL/DIAL repository. Stay tuned.<br>
<br>
We are using a very CONTROLLED method of development to guarantee each fix and feature is vetted before it makes it way into the master release. One of the many upsides is that you can see the changes as they are applied to the different branches as they make their way towards the master. As members of the development team start committing their work you will see it.<br>
<br>
The master branch is as it was plus one hotfix that needed to be applied. You will not see any change there until we are ready for a release. The develop branch is where all the fixes and features will start to appear. it is at <<a href="https://github.com/AllStarLink/Asterisk/tree/develop" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/AllStarLin<wbr>k/Asterisk/tree/develop</a>><br>
<br>
The first of those features is something the WANRS <<a href="http://www.wanrepeater.net/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.wanrepeater.net/</a>> people have been asking for. For quite a while I might add. They needed the ability to tailor the receive and transmit audio characteristics of the chan_usbradio channel driver. This feature has been available for quite a while in XIPAR and they felt if they were going to update their existing installations, they had to have that and at least one other feature. Late last summer Mike N4IRR added the feature to a custom version of DIAL that the WAN people have been testing. The testing has been done both on the air and with some very high quality test equipment. We have the thumbs up on it, so it is now in the develop branch.<br>
<br>
I'll say this again, you will not see any new feature in the version of asterisk used in ASL, today, tomorrow or next week. I do not have a feature freeze date let alone a release date. There is a TON of work to do. The teams are small (on purpose) and they all have day jobs. But the upside is you will be able to watch the progress.<br>
<br>
I want to encourage everyone to do a few things:<br>
<br>
1: If you see a question on the list, Answer it. The more people answering questions the better for all.<br>
<br>
2: If you have a skill you think can be helpful to the overall project, let me know. Not everyone is a software architect, We need people who can write (unlike me). People that can script (bash). And let's not forget the people that spend quite a bit of time interfacing ASL to repeaters. There are a lot more tasks that can be filled. No, not everyone can contribute, but it's worth a shot.<br>
<br>
3: If you have a idea, post it here. I read every message and after a few back and for discussions I may capture the idea and stick it in a log for review and discussion.<br>
