Asterisk 1.6 is not even supported by Digium anymore, and Vicidial does not support it either. But we did just add Asterisk 1.8 compatibility. Asterisk 1.8 is a LTS(long term support) version of Asterisk, with support from Digium through at least 2016. Asterisk 10 is a 1-year support version and Asterisk 11 will be another LTS 5-year-support version. We at Vicidial are not planning on supporting any 1-year support branch of Asterisk.
