Hi, we are happy to announce the release of GNU Gatekeeper version 2.2.8. It has a number of new features as well as the usual bug fixes. This release also comes with executables for more operating systems than before. Source code and executables can be downloaded from http://www.gnugk.org/h323download.html Some new features in 2.2.8 are: - new database drivers for ODBC and SQLite - auto-reconnect for all database drivers - extended 'sql' routing policy now supports setting multiple failover routes - support for using stored procedure when using MySQL - ./configure support for Windows - can be compiled to run as a Windows service - support for P2PNAT when compiled against H323Plus - some support for Presence when compiled against H323Plus - support calling by IP via the 'parent' routing policy - outbound number rewrite through SQL/RADIUS modules - selective config reload on the status port Please see the attached changes.txt for a full list of changes. New in this release are executables for NetBSD and Solaris x86. To compile GnuGk 2.2.7 you can use OpenH323 Atlas (OpenH323 1.18.0 / PWLib 1.10.3) or the latest H323Plus release. For high volume installations Atlas is the preferred library. Please see http://www.gnugk.org/compiling-gnugk.html for details on compiling.
