Software Update: Yate 0.9.0 pre3

Yate, short for Yet another telephony engine, is a telephony engine written in C++ and now focuses mainly on VoIP. It is easy to expand and can therefore also be used for transferring video or data and instant messaging. Examples of applications include H.323 gatekeeper, SIP router, IVR engine or VoIP to PSTN gateway. PHP and Python scripting support is provided. For more information, we refer you to this page. The third pre-release of version 0.9.0 has recently become available with the following announcement:

Yate 0.9.0 pre3:

Minor improvements and bug fixes in this release. Called number is picked from Q.931 of the H.323 calls if it’s not present as alias. A bug in default handling of SIP audio media was fixed. Warnings when compiling with gcc-4 were eliminated as well as an obsolete tag in the rpm specfile. A workaround for PHP’s buggy array_walk was implemented in libyate.php

Yate 0.9.0 pre2:

Support for the iLBC codec was added in both Linux and Windows. The tone generator can generate DTMF sequences and arbitrary sums or modulation of two sines, allowing generation of inband DTMF. The SIP and H.323 channels attempt harder to accommodate error conditions. It is now possible to initiate a graceful restart from the Remote Manager or by sending signals to the daemon. The engine will wait until all plugins are idle. Some problems compiling with gcc-4 or newer versions of Visual Studio have been fixed.

Yate-0.9.0 pre1:

It comprises a lot of improvements starting with a fully rewritten engine, a new RTP stack, the Windows port, the conference module, the Sangoma E1/T1 cheap cards support for both Windows and Linux. This new package also contains YateClient which is a multiprotocol H.323, SIP and IAX VoIP client. It requires GTK 2.6.8 for Windows and is fully skinnable.
