This is mainly a bug fix release. If you are using GnuGk as a server in
a traversal zone or if you do H.239 presentations with Avaya endpoints,
you are strongly encouraged to update. This version also fixes a memory
leak that mainly affects long running gatekeepers with a lot of RAS
traffic. Some of the bugs were long standing, so if you skipped some
previous releases, this is really a good time to update.
The main new feature in this release is expanded LUA support.
Besides LUA authentication and LUA routing, there is now a LuaAcct
module that allows you to run a script on every accounting event of your
choice. Please see the updated manual for details.
You can download the new version from

Please see the full change log below.
My support website https://www.willamowius.com also got a face lift.

Enjoy!
