Ok, thanks. Good to know the yate package is still alive. :-)

Just for the archives: Yate 2.0 fixes some bugs which have never
been filed on the Debian BTS.

A few entries from the svn log:

- Fixed echo cancel for voice circuits
- Fixed bug: incoming REFER requests are now corectly responded if
  failed to be routed
- Fixed fetching next result set - fixes bug 0000086.
- Fixed possible integer truncation when converting Strings to
  integers.
- Fixed zero-padding of negative math operation results.
- Fixes connect related race issues.
- Even if overlapping with next send proper end of RFC 2833 events.
- Fixed Remote-Party-ID generation
- Unlock the driver while updating channels to avoid possible
  deadlocks.
- Avoid deadlock by just dropping data if failing to lock.
- Fixed minor message header buffer issue.
- Fixed incorrect content length header when building a message.

There are some more interesting fixes about locking and mutexes
but I don't know if they affect 1.3. Maybe the upstream can comment
on that.

What made me think Yate 2 should go into Lenny is that for a rapidly
evolving VoIP project it doesn't make too much sense to leave people
with a dated version in the upcoming release of Debian given that
the current upstream release does not have regressions in stability.

But I fully respect Debian policy and don't want to argue about it.
