IETF96 in Berlin

The 96th meeting of IETF (the Internet Engineering Task Force) takes place in Berlin, Germany, during July 17-22, 2016. Ahackaton tied to the IETF meeting is organized during the weekend, July 16-17 .

Among the major standardization topics to be discussed, from Kamailio point of view, are: SIP, WebRTC, TURN, IPv6, TLS and DNS (DNSEC/DANE).

Daniel-Constantin Mierla and Olle E. Johansson from the Kamailio community will be present at the event.

Together with Lorenzo Miniero from Janus WebRTC Gateway project, they plan to organize a meetup (for drinks/dinner) on Monday evening, July 18 — likely to happen at a restaurant nearby IETF meeting, starting around 20:00. If you are in Berlin and want to join, contact us (email to sr-users mailing list or contact directly one of these three persons). Each participant will take care of own expenses, we aim to have an open discussion about what’s new lately and where we head on in real time communications space.

Looking forward to meeting some of you next week in Berlin!

Thanks for flying Kamailio!

Kamailio v4.2.8 Released

Kamailio SIP Server v4.2.8 stable is out! This is a minor release including fixes in code and documentation since v4.2.7.

Kamailio v4.2.8 is based on the latest version of GIT branch 4.2.  If you are running previous 4.2.x versions are advised to upgrade to 4.2.8 (or to 4.3.x/4.4.x series). If you upgrade from older 4.2.x to 4.2.8, there is no change that has to be done to configuration file or database structure comparing with older v4.2.x.

Note: the branch 4.2 is an old stable branch. The latest stable branch is 4.4, at this time with v4.4.2 being released out of it. The project is officially maintaining the last two stable branches, these are 4.4 and 4.3. Therefore an alternative is to upgrade to latest 4.4.x – be aware that you may need to change the configuration files and database structures from 4.2.x to 4.3.x/4.4.x. See more details about them at:

Important: this version marks the end of planned releases from branch 4.2. From now on the focus is on maintaining the branches 4.4 and 4.3 for stable releases.

Thank you for flying Kamailio! Enjoy the summer holidays!
