Asterisk-Java 0.2-rc1, a Java control for the Asterisk PBX, has been
released.

The Asterisk-Java package consists of a set of Java classes that allow
you to easily build Java applications that interact with an Asterisk
PBX Server. Asterisk-Java supports both interfaces that Asterisk
provides=20
for this scenario: The FastAGI protocol and the Manager API.

The 0.2-rc1 release candidate focuses on the new features of=20
Asterisk 1.2-beta1 though it still supports Asterisk 1.0.x.
The changes include
	* Support for the new Actions, Events and Commands of Asterisk 1.2
	* New support for event generating Actions, i.e. Actions
	  that send their result as a series of Event rather than
	  the usual ManagerResults. See the sendEventGeneratingAction()
	  methods in ManagerConnection for more information.
	* New base class for AGI scripts that allows you write cleaner=20
	  AGI scripts as you don't have to pass the channel variable
	  to all methods.
	* New convenience constructors for manager actions
	* Some minor bug fixes

Asterisk-Java is used in several commercial environments and by
the following Open Source projects:
