Twisted 16.2 Released
On behalf of Twisted Matrix Laboratories, I am honoured to announce
the release of Twisted 16.2!
Just in time for PyCon US, this release brings a few headlining
features (like the haproxy endpoint) and the continuation of the
modernisation of the codebase. More Python 3, less deprecated code,
what's not to like?
twisted.protocols.haproxy.proxyEndpoint, a wrapper endpoint
that gives some extra information to the wrapped protocols
passed by haproxy;
Migration of twistd and other twisted.application.app users to
the new logging system (twisted.logger);
Porting of parts of Twisted Names' server to Python 3;
The removal of the very old MSN client code and the deprecation
of the unmaintained ICQ/OSCAR client code;
More cleanups in Conch in preparation for a Python 3 port and
cleanups in HTTP code in preparation for HTTP/2 support;
Over thirty tickets overall closed since 16.1.
Version 4.2 (22 May 2016)
A complete list of bugs fixed in this version is available here:
http://sv.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?group=make&report_id=111&fix_release_id=106&set=custom
* New variable: $(.SHELLSTATUS) is set to the exit status of the last != or
$(shell ...) function invoked in this instance of make. This will be "0" if
successful or not "0" if not successful. The variable value is unset if no
!= or $(shell ...) function has been invoked.
* The $(file ...) function can now read from a file with $(file <FILE).
The function is expanded to the contents of the file. The contents are
expanded verbatim except that the final newline, if any, is stripped.
* The makefile line numbers shown by GNU make now point directly to the
specific line in the recipe where the failure or warning occurred.
Sample changes suggested by Brian Vandenberg <phantall@gmail.com>
* The interface to GNU make's "jobserver" is stable as documented in the
manual, for tools which may want to access it.
WARNING: Backward-incompatibility! The internal-only command line option
--jobserver-fds has been renamed for publishing, to --jobserver-auth.
* The amount of parallelism can be determined by querying MAKEFLAGS, even when
the job server is enabled (previously MAKEFLAGS would always contain only
"-j", with no number, when job server was enabled).
* VMS-specific changes:
* Perl test harness now works.
* Full support for converting Unix exit status codes to VMS exit status
codes. BACKWARD INCOMPATIBILITY Notice: On a child failure the VMS exit
code is now the encoded Unix exit status that Make usually generates, not
the VMS exit status of the child.

LXTask is a lightweight and desktop-independent task manager derived from
xfce4-taskmanager with all dependencies on xfce removed, new features, and some
improvement of the user interface. It displays CPU use percentage, memory usage,
and information about running processes.
LXLauncher is a launcher for applications. It is designed for
screens of 7 inches to 10.2 inches. It groups the applications
by topics which are accessed by tabs.
LXPanel is a lightweight X11 desktop panel. It offers a taskbar,
desktop pager, menus, launcher, notifications area, system tray,
and more. This package also provides lxpanelctl, the controller
of lxpanel.
This package provides files required to build freedesktop.org menu
spec-compliant desktop menus for LXDE. The files are originally taken from
gnome-menus, and some minor modifications were made.
