RingyDingyDingy is a lightweight app which lets you send a text message to your phone (or your Google Voice number, for phones and tablets) to make it ring (disabling silent/vibrate if on, and restoring them when ringing has stopped) and lock (on Froyo or newer).
Release Notes: This release adds a Google Voice trigger (compatible with phones and tablets), makes the SMS trigger able to be disabled, and adds "rdd" as a shorthand for "RingyDingyDingy".

CUPS is a standards-based printing system for Mac OS X and other Unix-like operating systems. It provides the System V and Berkeley command line interfaces, and uses the Internet Printing Protocol ("IPP") as the basis for managing print jobs and queues. The Line Printer Daemon (LPD) Server Message Block (SMB), and AppSocket (a.k.a. JetDirect) protocols are also supported with reduced functionality. CUPS adds network printer browsing and PostScript Printer Description ("PPD") based printing options to support real world printing.
Release Notes: This release fixes the tarballs released as CUPS 1.5.1.

QDAE is an emulator supporting various 16-bit computers made by Apricot in the 1980s, plus the Wang Professional Computer. All these were non-IBM-compatible systems running custom versions of MS-DOS or CP/M.
Release Notes: A native mouse driver has been added, allowing improved pointer integration with the host operating system. Various improvements and bugfixes have been made to serial port emulation.

py-setproctitle is a library that allows a Python process to change its title, as displayed by system tools such as ps and top. Changing the title is useful in multi-process systems, for example when a master process is forked: changing the child's title allows you to identify the task each process is busy with. It is based on PostgreSQL's multi-platform implementation.
Release Notes: This release allows you to change the title of a process running an embedded Python interpreter, for instance in mod_wsgi. This is a test release: it is not available on PyPI, but it can be found on the project homepage.

jace is a cycle-accurate emulation of an enhanced Apple //e. Its modular framework makes it easy for developers to swap out components (video/cpu/etc.) or add new emulated hardware.
Release Notes: Mouse and interrupts are correctly supported. The JACE startup screen "helpful messages" option no longer breaks Airheart. It is now possible to configure a virtual prodos volume as a physical folder for read-only operations. 65C02 bitwise opcodes have been implemented: BBR, BSR, RMB, and SMB. 140kb 2MG images are now supported by the Disk ][ Controller.
Booting with the mass storage device enabled but no drives selected will no longer crashes to the monitor on startup. New sound mixer configuration.

Seed7 is a general purpose programming language.
It is a higher level language compared to Ada,
C++, and Java. In Seed7, new statements and
operators can be declared easily. Functions with
type results and type parameters are more elegant
than a template or generics concept. Object
orientation is used when it brings advantages and
not in places when other solutions are more
obvious. Although Seed7 contains several concepts
of other programming languages, it is generally
not considered as a direct descendant of any other
programming language.
Release Notes: FAQ answers, explaining call-by-name and how it is implemented in Seed7, were added. The "ftpserv.sd7" program was improved to work with various FTP client programs. The speed of 'socLineRead' (getln() for sockets) in "soc_rtl.c" was improved. The Unicode support of "ftp.s7i" and "ftp7.sd7" was improved. The compiler was improved to generate optimized code for the the @:= operator. Test cases for the @:= operator were added to "chkstr.sd7". The program "chkccomp.c" was changed to include "version.h" and to define OS_OFF_T_SIZE. The function 'str' for 'fileMode' was improved.

TXR is a text extraction and reporting pattern language with support for imperative and functional programming. TXR is written in C and takes the form
of a utility that runs natively in Unix and Windows. It is intended for "rubber meets the road" computing: quickly throwing together clear, expressive programs which manipulate messy data. It provides different new ways to express solutions in a space occupied by some traditional tools.
Release Notes: This release fixes incorrect UTF-8 decoding of a valid character range, and closes security issues related to UTF-8 decoding and re-encoding. A regression that broke computed field widths in release 55 is fixed. Hex and octal escapes in string literals and quasiliterals are now recognized like the documentation says. The [...] notation now has evaluation semantics for symbolic arguments which are like Lisp-1. An operator called op has been introduced for writing simple lambdas with a currying syntax with numbered and implicit arguments.
