I would vote for 1.4, but keep in mind that it is approaching end-of-life
(although that may or may not be relevant, since there are still plenty of
1.2 folks out there).

1.2 has been the most stable version for me.

Same setups with 1.4 +DAHDI has never been as stable with random crashes 
and re-starts - however they're not predictable and sometimes months 
apart. I had one instance of 1.2 run for over a year without a hiccup.

I've not even thought about 1.8 yet.

Callweaver?   http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/CallWeaver.  I believe they
forked somewhere in the 1.2 release.  Many features ahead of Asterisk.

Although I didn't see anything on FreeSwitch stating anything anything about
deadlocking, I know that was one of the main reasons for BKW, as seasoned
asterisk developer and folks to start from scratch.  That and the hybrid
dual license in Asterisk.

http://www.sofaswitch.org/docs/How%20does%20FreeSWITCH%20compare%20to%20Asterisk.pdf

Read the whole piece.  I know it isn't Asterisk but BKW who contributed and
I believe is still helping Asterisk

Besides, I feel that FreeSwitch is the most stable.

I like 1.2 so I went with Callweaver for many installations.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro

Based on the following URL, it seems that CallWeaver may not still be an active
project??
