[Openh323gk-developer] GNU Gatekeeper 4.1 released

[Jan W. <ja...@wi...>]

Hi,

I'm happy to announce the availability of GNU Gatekeeper 4.1.

This is mainly a bug fix release. If you are using GnuGk as a server in
a traversal zone or if you do H.239 presentations with Avaya endpoints,
you are strongly encouraged to update. This version also fixes a memory
leak that mainly affects long running gatekeepers with a lot of RAS
traffic. Some of the bugs were long standing, so if you skipped some
previous releases, this is really a good time to update.

The main new feature in this release is expanded LUA support.
Besides LUA authentication and LUA routing, there is now a LuaAcct
module that allows you to run a script on every accounting event of your
choice. Please see the updated manual for details.

You can download the new version from
http://www.gnugk.org/h323download.html

Please see the full change log attached to the end of this mail.

My support website https://www.willamowius.com also got a face lift.
Please check it out as well.

Enjoy!
