Bug#700596: stable version will be unsupported by release date

Package: asterisk
Version: 1:1.8.13.1~dfsg-1

The current debian testing version of asterisk seems to be based on
Asterisk 1.8.x (upstream), when this is released as the new debian
stable (perhaps some time in the next 6 months or so?) we will only have
about 12 months of upstream security fix support, and it will be EOL in
around 2 years.

I would suggest a consideration is made to use upstream version 11.x in
for the next debian stable, which will be supported by upstream until
2016 for security and 2017 for EOL.

Please see https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+Versions
for more details on the upstream versions of Asterisk

Regards,
Adam
