Fixes and Stability Enhancements since Opera 12.11
General and User Interface
* Several general fixes and stability improvements
* New option `Delete settings and data for all extensions' option (off by
default) in the Delete Private Data dialog

extension and settings data

screens

http://www.opera.com/support/kb/view/1038/

NEW features of cdrtools-3.01a10:
This is the first localization step for cdrtools. All programs now (hopefully)
call gettext() for all strings that need localization.
- The next step will include dgettext() calls for the libraries.
- The following step will include the extracted strings
- The last step will include German translations and install support
for the resulting binary message object files.
All:
- Add support for semi-static (preconfigured) include files for Android:
include/schily/armv5tejl-linux-gcc/xconfig.h
- New include files include/schily/err_*.h are used to encapsulate
#error CPP statements that would otherwise always prevent compilation
with K&R compilers.
Mkisofs (Maintained/enhanced by J
- Revert a change to dvd_file.c::uniq() that was made because of a "valgrind"
warning that claims illegal memory access. With the change from 3.01a09, mkisofs
however does not deal correctly with DVD-Video padding, so the valgrind warning is
wrong.
turned off in www/curl.
Modify the curl package to be aware of the libidn option. Ensure default
is on.
No functional change, so no version number bump.
Version 1.1.0
=============
svn.uri=:"http//common-lisp.net/project/armedbear/svn/trunk/abcl/"
(22 November 2012)
Features
--------
* A functioning (A)MOP implementation through the hard work of Rudi
Schlatte (@rudi)
* The implementation can be used across many more Quicklisp systems
through a process of extensive testing. Thanks @xach!
Nota bene: all of the following systems need patches to work as
of the 2012-10-13 Quicklisp. All patches have been accepted in
at least an initial form by the upstream maintainers.
** CLOSER-MOP
Quite possible with local patches
** CFFI
Needs patches to 2012-10-13 Quicklisp. [!!?]
*** Dynamic interfaces idempotent across process -- no more reloading
** HUNCHENTOOT
*** some bugs with underlying streams to be fixed in abcl-1.2-dev
** CXML
Basic XML parsing works. XPath still borked. [???]
* Java 5 bytecode Compiler
The internal Lisp-to-Java bytecode compiler has been hardened by
regression testing across Quicklisp libraries.
** Extensive interpreter/compiler bug fixes due to access to cl-test-suite [???] @antov
** large objects (?!?)
* The facility to construct runtime classes via JNEW-RUNTIME-CLASS (@astalla)
Pretty close to full coverage of primtives for creating synthethic
java classes at runtime. Easy to extend with your needs; sensible
defaults.
** Fields
*** getter/setters
** Annotations
* ASDF
** Stock ASDF-2.26 with conditional patches for the URL-PATHAME and
JAR-PATHNAME implementation extensions to ANSI.
* ABCL-CONTRIB
** ABCL-ASDF
Network installation of binary artifacts named by Maven POM uris.
*** checks at runtime if a given class is present in the
accessible classloaders
*** If the check for the presence of a class fails, find a
maven-3.0.4 binary locally, execute its Aether connector
to retrieve its transitive dependencies from the network.
** JSS
Java Syntax Sucks. q.v [lsw2]
Extensive bugfixing wrt. method resolution [#229]
** JFLI
A "captured from the wild" version of what @rich.hickey did before Clojure.
Changes
-------
* [#249] PATHNAME merge semantics DWIMs on an inferred type
Extends ANSI PATHNAME in a non-conforming manner, which was probably
already the case.
* [r13695] Reimplementation of global symbol macros to avoid using
the symbol's value slot.
* [r13696] DEFMACRO now supports documentation strings as per the
ANSI specification.
* [r13700] ABCL loads under the Weblogic 10.3 application server.
* [r13768] [#193] Allow zero-length symbols
* [r13785] JNEW-RUNTIME-CLASS gets fields and annotations
* [r13790] JNEW-RUNTIME-CLASS getters/setters for fields
* [r13796] [r13797] N3 DOAP description for ABCL
* [r13803] Build target 'abcl-contrib.jar' packages ABCL-CONTRIB

=== unicorn 4.5.0 - check_client_connection option / 2012-12-07 22:59 UTC
The new check_client_connection option allows unicorn to detect
most disconnected local clients before potentially expensive
application processing begins.
This feature is useful for applications experiencing spikes of
traffic leading to undesirable queue times, as clients will
disconnect (and perhaps even retry, compounding the problem)
before unicorn can even start processing the request.
To enable this feature, add the following line to a unicorn
config file:
check_client_connection true
This feature only works when nginx (or any other HTTP/1.0+
client) is on the same machine as unicorn.
A huge thanks to Tom Burns for implementing and testing this
change in production with real traffic (including mitigating
an unexpected DoS attack).

This release fixes broken Rainbows! compatibility in 4.5.0pre1.

=== unicorn 4.4.0 - minor updates / 2012-10-11 09:11 UTC
Non-regular files are no longer reopened on SIGUSR1. This
allows users to specify FIFOs as log destinations.
TCP_NOPUSH/TCP_CORK is no longer set/unset by default. Use
:tcp_nopush explicitly with the "listen" directive if you wish
to enable TCP_NOPUSH/TCP_CORK.
Listen sockets are now bound _after_ loading the application for
preload_app(true) users. This prevents load balancers from
sending traffic to an application server while the application
is still loading.
There are also minor test suite cleanups.
3.2.3
* sass --watch no longer crashs when a file in a watched directory is deleted.
* Allow @extend within bubbling nodes such as @media.
* Fix various JRuby incompatibilities and test failures.
* Work around a performance bug that arises from using @extend with
deeply-nested selectors.
3.2.2
* Add a --poll option to force sass --watch to use the polling backend to
Listen.
* Fix some error reporting bugs related to @import.
* Treat protocol-relative URLs in @imports as static URLs, just like http and
https URLs.
* Improve the error message for misplaced simple selectors.
* Fix an option-handling bug that was causing errors with the Compass URL
helpers.
* Fix a performance issue with @import that only appears when ActiveSupport is
loaded.
* Fix flushing of actions to stdout. Thanks to Russell Davis
(http://github.com/russelldavis).
* Fix the documentation for the max() function.
* Fix a @media parsing bug.
Deprecations -- Must Read!
* Sass will now print a warning when it encounters a single @import statement
that tries to import more than one file. For example, if you have @import
"screen" and both screen.scss and _screen.scss exist, a warning will be
printed. This will become an error in future versions of Sass.
=== 2.8 / 2012-10-17
* Minor enhancements
* Added Net::HTTP::Persistent::detect_idle_timeout which can be used to
determine the idle timeout for a host.
* The read timeout may now be updated for every request. Issue #33 by
Mislav Marohnić
* Added NO_PROXY support. Pull Request #31 by Laurence Rowe.
* Added #cert and #key aliases for Net::HTTP compatibility. Pull request
#26 by dlee.
* The artifice gem now disables SSL session reuse to prevent breakage of
testing frameworks. Pull Request #29 by Christopher Cooke.

built-in to Net::HTTP.
* Bug fixes
* Socket options are set again following connection reset. Pull request #28
by cmaion.
* #shutdown now works even if no connections were made. Pull Request #24 by
James Tucker.
* Updated test RSA key size to 1024 bits. Bug #25 by Gunnar Wolf.

fails. Bug #30 by glebtv.
== 0.6.2 / 2012-09-27
