+=== Information for upgrading between Asterisk versions
+===
+=== These files document all the changes that MUST be taken
+=== into account when upgrading between the Asterisk
+=== versions listed below. These changes may require that
+=== you modify your configuration files, dialplan or (in
+=== some cases) source code if you have your own Asterisk
+=== modules or patches. These files also include advance
+=== notice of any functionality that has been marked as
+=== 'deprecated' and may be removed in a future release,
+=== along with the suggested replacement functionality.

+===========================================================
+
+ARI:
+ - The policy for when to send "Dial" events has changed. Previously, "Dial"
+ events were sent on the calling channel's topic. However, starting in Asterisk
+ 14, if there is no calling channel on which to send the event, the event is
+ instead sent on the called channel's topic. Note that for the ARI channels
+ resource's dial operation, this means that the "Dial" events will always be
+ sent on the called channel's topic.
+
+Channel Drivers:
+
+chan_dahdi:
+ - For users using the FXO port (FXS signaling) distinctive ring detection
+ feature, you will need to adjust the dringX count values. The count
+ values now only record ring end events instead of any DAHDI event. A
+ ring-ring-ring pattern would exceed the pattern limits and stop
+ Caller-ID detection.
+
+chan_sip:
+ - The SIP dial string has been extended past the [!dnid] option by another
+ exclamation mark: [!dnid[!fromuri]. An exclamation mark in the To-URI
+ will now mean changes to the From-URI.
+
+Core:
+ - The REF_DEBUG compiler flag is now used to enable refdebug by default.
+ The setting can be overridden in asterisk.conf by setting refdebug in
+ the options category. No recompile is required to enable/disable it.
+
+ - Modified processing of command-line options to first parse only what
+ is necessary to read asterisk.conf. Once asterisk.conf is fully loaded,
+ the remaining options are processed. The -X option now applies to
+ asterisk.conf only. To enable #exec for other config files you must
+ set execincludes=yes in asterisk.conf. Any other option set on the
+ command-line will now override the equivalent setting from asterisk.conf.
+
+AMI:
+ - The 'ModuleCheck' Action's Version key will no longer show the module
+ version. The value will always be blank.
+
+CLI:
+ - The 'core show file version' command has been removed. When Asterisk
+ moved to Git, the source control version support was removed. As a
+ result, the CLi command was no longer useful and was removed as well.
+
+Logging:
+ - The first callid created is now 1 instead of 0. The value 0
+ is now reserved to represent a lack of callid.
+
+AMI:
+ - The Command action now sends the output from the CLI command as a series
+ of Output headers for each line instead of as a block of text with the
+ --END COMMAND-- delimiter to match the output from other actions.
+
+ Commands that fail to execute (no such command, invalid syntax etc.) now
+ return an Error response instead of Success.
+
+app_amd:
+ - The 'maximum_number_of_words' configuration option and parameter to the AMD
+ application previously did not match the documented functionality + variable
+ name. In Asterisk 13, a value of '3' would mean that if '3' words were detected,
+ the result would be detection as a 'MACHINE'. As of this version, the value
+ reflects the maximum words that if EXCEEDED (rather than reached), would
+ result in detection as a machine. This means that you should update this
+ value to be one higher than your previos value, if your previous value
+ was working well for you.
