1.0 is actually 10, the version after 1.8 (They changed the version
numbering). I know it can be confusing, but i did not want to call the
port asterisk100, if anybody has a better idea let me know.

1.4 is the oldest version we have in the tree and as long as it's kept
up to date it should IMHO stay. 1.4 is a LTS release which will be
supported until April of next year. This gives people a bit more time to
migrate to the next LTS release, which is 1.8.
