APR-toolkit library

• If NTP has drifted the clock backwards, advance the queue based on the set timeout but not actual time difference. (Issue #257)

MPF library

• Feature: When tracing is set to a new mode of "3", send tracing logs directly to apt_log() using macro expansion. Thanks @sfgeorge. (Pull request #254)
• Reset all the left-over variables on mpf_buffer_restart()

MRCP client library

MRCP server library

• Added a check for RTP settings on server profile registration.
• While creating a new MRCP channel, make sure associated engine is open and ready to process requests.
• Reworked profile-based association of MRCP resources and engines to allow specifying optional attributes per profile.
• Added support for optional session attributes passed from signaling agents down to engines.

MRCPv2 transport library

• While trying to find an existing client connection, do not observe instances with closed socket. (Issue #259)
• Limit concurrent/shared use of an MRCPv2 client connection by the configuration parameter max-shared-use-count similarly to the server connection.

Sofia-SIP module (MRCPv2 agent)

• Do not call nua_bye() and respond to session termination straightaway if nua_handle is used for resource discovery only.
• In offline mode, respond with SIP 503 Service Unavailable to SIP OPTIONS requests. Thanks @michaelplevy. (Issue #242)
• Allow disabling the Sofia SIP SDP Offer/Answer Engine Module. Thanks @schlagert. (Issue #248, Pull request #249)
• Added support for optional session attributes passed from signaling agents down to engines.
• Optionally extract SIP session call id and user name from SIP INVITE along with feature tags and pass them forward through session generic attributes.

ASR Client application (and library)

• Add asrclient support for multiple, builtin and remote grammars. Thanks @michaelplevy and @schlagert. (Issue #246)

Miscellaneous

• For Windows service, use RegisterServiceCtrlHandlerEx() instead of RegisterServiceCtrlHandler() in order to handle user-defined control cases for offline/online. Thanks @michaelplevy.
• Added new parameters to default configuration files.
