Release 1.5.1

(1/1)

QueueMetrics:
QueueMetrics version 1.5.1 has been released today.

This version comes with a revised Agent's page that will empower your agents and give them better insight into the overall call processing that is happening system-wide. We also added improved tracking of outbound calls made by agents, and a set of features that are meant to smooth the transition to the Asterisk 1.6 platform. As a last important change, we now support the Oreka recording solution as an audio storage medium. This will be loved by those of you running the largest Asterisk deployments, who will be able to factor out call recordings from the main Asterisk server.

There is also a long list of new features and bugs fixed that should make this release interesting for most of you.

These are the major upgrades over the previous versions:
* Bug #498: QueueMetrics is now able to track lost outbound calls and will show outbound calls correctly as they are being placed in the Realtime page.
* Bug #586: Qloaderd tool lets you do partial upload of older queue_log data
* Bug #632: It is now possible to use Oreka for audio recordings.
* Bug #605: Now officially using the PolyVox translator's portal

* Bug #576: AGAW information (if present) will now be displayed on the Agent's page

* Bug #619: On the Agent's page it is now possible to do logins to all queues at once using ADDMEMBER. Useful for Asterisk 1.6.

* Bug #621: Custom buttons that can lanch extenal URLs or trigger dialplan functions added to the Agent's page.
