The webphone is one of our most important project with a quick development cycle and long term plans. We are constantly improving our web sip library, introducing new enhancements such as changes to reflect the latest industry standards, new VoIP engines, new features, bug fixes and optimizations.
All the important modules were developed by Mizutech with special care for interoperability, cross platform support, voice quality and reliability. Our focus is to provide a future proof web SIP client solution which will survive OS/browser changes and will remain a reliable high quality VoIP solution for web in the next decades. To achieve these goals, beside to bring a list of optimizations to the existing WebRTC HTML5 support, we also introduced native SIP/RTP engines to optimize voice quality and remove the WebRTC-SIP protocol conversion overhead whenever possible, thus saving precious server side resources (softswitch CPU and memory usage).
We usually push a new major release in every once or twice per year.
However internally we release a new stable release in around every month and paid customers will always receive the latest stable release, which is usually newer then the publicly available demo.
The webphone comes with a stable API, all new versions backward compatible with the old versions (keeping all old API unchanged).
The version number consist of 3 digits: [major].[minor].[release]
- major version: to reflect big architecture changes (still keeping API compatibility)
- minor version: increased for major releases
- release version: minor changes, upgrades, bug fixes (not always listed here and when listed then later merged in major releases)
The version numbers listed here reflects the software main branch version number.
The version number for the different modules in the WebPhone might be different. So even if your webphone main version number is 2.2 for example, the included NS module version can be 1.7 for example (also there are different version numbers for the WebRTC stack or the Java engine). However all these modules get their upgrade with each new webphone release.
Major changes for the Mizu web sip client (webphone) are listed in the changelog below.
