Russell Bryant has posted details of some changes to the way developers need to commit code to Asterisk because of the newly released 1.8 branch:
Greetings,
The Asterisk 1.8 branch has been created. (Yay!)
As a related change to this, there have been some changes to the process of merging changes between branches. The merge order is now:
1.4 --> 1.6.2 --> 1.8 --> trunk
So, the 1.6.2 branch has the following properties:
branch-1.4-merged
branch-1.4-blocked
The 1.8 branch has:
branch-1.6.2-merged
branch-1.6.2-blocked
... etc.
Other than the order of the branches in the merge process (and the corresponding property names), the usage of the svnmerge tool for merging between branches remains the same.
Thanks,
--

Ok, bear with me on this one. If you understand all the ramifications, FreePBX has split to a new project called BlueBox contained within the 2600hz project. This obviously has implications for Trixbox that uses FreePBX to provide quite a bit of functionality.
