PJSIP 1.x being Phased Out, Version 1.16 The Penultimate Version

PJSIP version 2.0 has been out for eight months, we’ve had two releases since then, we feel that the 2.x line should have been maturing now.

It’s time to say goodbye to the venerable version 1.x.  It’s proven to be a successful product, in my opinion. It’s been with us for four years, 25 releases, and it has met a lot of people’s expectations. Although granted that it has its share of deficiencies too. We could only hope that version 2 would be as successful.

But we can’t maintain 1.x forever. We feel our limited development resource would be better spent at developing 2.x instead. Thus we are giving version 1.x support for six more months from now, until September 2013. We hope that this, along with the eight months that we’ve had, gives enough time for everyone to upgrade their 1.x based product to PJSIP version 2. We do encourage everyone to upgrade to PJSIP version 2.

PJSIP version 1.16 was released. This version contains many bug fixes backported from version 2.1. The next version in PJSIP 1.x version line, version 1.17, will be the last of the 1.x series. It will only contain critical fixes from the 2.x, hence once again we recommend everyone to upgrade to version 2 to get the full benefit of PJSIP.

Thank you for using PJSIP!
