Pantheios supports logging of message statements of arbitrary complexity, consisting of heterogenous types. Pantheios supports filtering of log messages based on severity level. Changes: This release introduces a new flag, PANTHEIOS_BE_SPEECH_F_UNINIT_DISCARD_WORKAROUND, which causes bec.speech to discard its speech object reference at uninitialization, to work around what is believed to be a defect in SAPI where the SAPI dll is unloaded during application shutdown prior to the release of all outstanding references. It also incorporates another tranche of widestring compatibility changes, working towards full-support in a forthcoming release.
About: xTests is a small, simple, lightweight, portable unit/component testing library for exercising C and C++ libraries. It relies on no platform-specific or compiler-specific constructs and doesn't require pre-processing of your source code by scripting languages or use macros to create secret classes that use Schwarz counters to register test cases. It relies on you to simply code what you want, and nothing that you don't want. Changes: This release includes a number of changes to avoid precipitating warnings about unused return values. It also includes definitions for XTESTS_TEST_BOOLEAN_TRUE() and XTESTS_TEST_BOOLEAN_FALSE() test operations.

Using Metalink's chunk checksums, aria2 automatically validates chunks of data while downloading a file like BitTorrent. Changes: This release adds the ability to verify peers using given trusted CA certificates and client certificate authentication in HTTPS. The ability to form a persistent connection using a proxy and support for well-known environment variables for proxy settings were also added. The bug that caused a segmentation fault during seeding was fixed. Now users can specify output the filename and directory in the input file. The average download speed are now printed in Download results. The following options are now enabled by default: --ftp-pasv and --enable-direct-io.
About: Rsyslog is an enhanced multi-threaded syslogd. Among others, it offers support for on-demand disk buffering, reliable syslog over TCP, SSL, TLS, and RELP, writing to databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and many more), email alerting, fully configurable output formats (including high-precision timestamps), the ability to filter on any part of the syslog message, on-the-wire message compression, and the ability to convert text files to syslog. It is a drop-in replacement for stock syslogd and able to work with the same configuration file syntax. Changes: This release contains many enhancements that allow the engine to process many more events per second than any previous version. This was made possible thanks to large changes inside the rsyslog core. Consequently, there is ample room for bugs, so this version should be used with care.
