Thank you for your continued support of Asterisk!

Thanks for this new release :)

Just out of curiosity, why did the download page for asterisk.org change?

In the old days it was quite clearly visibible what the latest asterisk 
version was including all the related packages for that version 
(libpri, addons, dahdi etc. etc.)

Why not do something similar now?  asterisk-addons have completely 
disappered from the page, one now needs to dive into the news releases 
or the ftp to find the latest and greatest.

Why not split it up like it was before, like :

Asterisk-1.4.27.1		asterisk-1.6.0.19
dahdi-linux-2.2.0.2		dahdi-linux-2.2.0.2
dahdi-tools-2.2.0		dahdi-tools-2.2.0
libpri-1.4.10.2			libpri-1.4.10.2
asterisk-addons-1.4.9		asterisk-addons-1.4.9
skypeforasterisk-1.4_1.0.6	skypeforasterisk-1.6.0_1.0.6
whatever-1.4.0.4		whatever-1.6.0.3

Just a thought :)

Cheers!
Remco

Hi.

I have the same opinion as Remco. Seems it is not as convinent as before.
Now each time I download new version I have to visit url
http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/releases/  and then
choose latest version of them.
