A new framework (named kemi - kamailio embedded interface) was added, allowing to writing routing blocks in embedded languages such as Lua or Python:

• http://www.kamailio.org/wiki/devel/config-engines

• log_prefix_mode
  • If set to 1, then the log prefix is evaluated before/after each config action
  • needs to be set when the log_prefix has variables that are different based on the context of config execution
    • e.g., $cfg(line))

• latency_cfg_log
  • Log message with the duration of executing request route or reply route is printed to syslog
