Asymptote 1.22 released
690828
Asymptote (http://asymptote.sourceforge.net) is a powerful descriptive vector graphics language for technical drawing, inspired by MetaPost but with an improved C++-like syntax. Asymptote provides for figures the same high-quality level of typesetting that LaTeX does for scientific text.   Problems with loading LaTeX packages and slide presentations were fixed. Non-static variables in every loop iteration are now allocated anew. Formatting under locales with nonperiod decimal separators was fixed, along with logarithmic tick labels near the machine epsilon.  Concatenation of nullpaths was fixed. New path markers were added and the perpendicular symbol in the geometry module was improved. The skeleton routines in the solids module were split to provide finer control.  Routines to facilitate drawing 3d contours were added. Reading portable XDR binary data into arrays works again; functions for reading and writing also in native binary formats were added. The TeX preamble is no longer output in inline mode. The TeX pipe is now aware of a previously generated aux file. Memory leaks were fixed. An inline limit is now imposed on old compilers to speed up compilation. Setlocale warnings are disabled unless debugging is on. A colorspace command for extracting the colorspace of a pen was added. An Asymptote introductory slide presentation was added and a user-written Asymptote tutorial is now cited in the manual.

tcllib is a Tcl-only library of standard routines for Tcl (no compiling required). This project also houses the CVS modules for BWidgets, tclbench, mclistbox, tclapps, and tklib.  tcllib is a Tcl-only library of standard routines for Tcl (no compiling required). This release is a minor version change which fixes numerous bugs and provides enhancements as well.  Tcllib 1.10 release notes =========================  Hello World, welcome to Tcllib 1.10.  This release is a minor version change which fixes numerous bugs and provides enhancements as well, to existing modules, and via newly added modules.  Availability ------------  The released distributions can be downloaded from:    Available are gzipped, zipped, and bzipped tarballs, and a starkit.  Installation ------------  * For the starkit and starpack just execute the file and a GUI based   installer will pop up. Fill out the paths, then run the installation.  * For the tarballs unpack them in some directory /foo, then run the   file "/foo/installer.tcl". This will invoke the same installer used   in the starkit and starpack.    Note: While the installer will open up a GUI by default (and if   possible), a command line based installation is provided too. Run the   installer with the option "-help" to see what is available.

Sebastian Bergmann has posted the results of some benchmarking on the compilation he's done on the branches of PHP from version 3.0 all the way up to 5.3-CVS.   As people keep asking me for an update to my previous benchmarks (PHP / GCC / ICC Benchmark, PHP 5.1 / GCC Benchmark (Update), and PHP 5.1 Performance, I quickly ran a new benchmark today.   He rendered the results out into a series of charts defining the number of total seconds taken for the compile and how long each of the components took. It's impressive to see how much of a jump there was between the 3.0 series and 4.3.   He also includes his compile settings (and machine information) as well as the numbers for the results if you'd like to graph them out yourself.

Paul Jones has released two new concurrent versions of the Solar framework today:   Yesterday, I released Solar 0.27.0, then quick-fixed two minor bugs and released 0.27.1 an hour later.

Some of the updates/changes in these new releases include:  The use of spl_autolaod to load classes Locale functions have a new home a super-fast JSON encoder/decoder a modification to the SQL adapter for PDO A new bit of functionality in Solar_Url that can find the ".ext" filename extension in a URL automagically  You can download this latest update(s) from the framework's main website.

Chris Hartjes has posted an update on the Zend_Service_Audioscrobbler package for the Zend Framework, including writing the unit tests to ensure it's complete functionality.   In my spare time I've been banging away at writing the required unit tests for the Zend_Service_Audioscrobbler component that Derek and I had started. I finished all the unit tests for the user based functions, which is a nice milestone. Then I decided to go back and actually read the comments made from the proposal. Oops. I discovered there were a bunch of changes that the folks at Zend said needed to be made in order to accept them. I agree with most of them.   He also lists some of these comments/changes/suggestions for the package that were given to help it fit in better with the rest of the framework.

Stoyan Stefanov has posted about some updates he's been making to his Text_Highlighter PEAR package and to the hiliteme.com website.   In today's busy schedules there's less and less time to give love to our favorite open source projects. [...] Anyway, today I found the time to fix two bugs in Text_Highlighter and also include the patch from Daniel Fruzynski that adds support for highlighting VBScript. Wo-hoo!   The update to hiliteme.com uses the newly updated package, so you can try it out before you go and install it.

We are proud to announce the release of version 0.9 or LeafRSS! This version includes full smarty template integration, as well as options to embed the articles in another web page, or even to allow the output of the filter as an RSS feed.   A patch file has been included to upgrade from version 0.8 to avoid any loss of data. Please see the PATCH file for details.  This will be the final major release before we release our first stable version.  If you have any questions or discover any bugs in this version, please post them either in the Help section of our sourceforge forums or in our sourceforge bug tracker. We would appreciate any input you could give us to help us test this release in preparation for moving this project to stable status.  More detail is available at: https://sourceforge.net/projects/leafrss

Sebastian Bergmann has posted an update of the status of the PHPUnit project to his blog today including feature additions to PHPUnit 3.1 and ones being added to other branches.   The last weeks have been busy, but now I want to take the time to finally give you an update on the status of PHPUnit. The development of PHPUnit 3.1 is progressing nicely, about the only thing missing is finishing the documentation for all the new features   Among these new features are things like:   improvements in mock objects the ability for PHPUnit to write code coverage information to a test database some fun new template methods and mutation testing that's being built on the separate branch
