gnoMint 0.6.0 released

I'm pleased to announce the 0.6.0 version, aka "Import-a-matic" of gnoMint: a graphical X.509 Certification Authority management tool.


This version adds some features:
  • Import of whole OpenSSL-generated CA's.
  • Import of PKCS#8 files.
  • Import of PKCS#12 files.
  • Added Italian and initial German translation, courtesy of Launchpad collaborators.
Many bugs has been fixed:
  • CRL importing now works correctly.
  • Multiple import of the same certificate now is disallowed.
  • Fixed a portability problem: an architecture-dependant value was been saved in the database.
  • Fixed problem with recent-file menu: now it works (again).

About gnoMint:
==============

gnoMint is a tool for an easy creation and management of Certification Authorities. It allows a fancy visualization of all the pieces that conform a CA: x509 certificates, CSRs, CRLs...

Currently, it allows the creation of CAs, CSRs and Certificates, and export both public and private parts of them into PEM formatted files. It manages the revocation of the created certificates, as well as the creation of CRLs.

gnoMint is now perfectly usable for managing a CA that emits certificates able to:
  • Authenticate people or machines in VPNs (IPSec or other protocols);
  • Secure HTTP communications with SSL/TLS secured web servers;
  • Authenticate and cipher HTTP communications through web-client certificates;
  • Sign and/or crypt e-mails
For compiling it, its dependencies are:
  • GTK+ 2.10 or newer
  • Gnome
  • SQLite 3
  • libGnuTLS 2.0 or newer
More information in
http://gnomint.sourceforge.net

You can get the tarball from sourceforge mirrors:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/gnomint/gnomint-0.6.0.tar.gz?download

Announcing gnome-speech 0.4.22

=======================
* What is gnome-speech?
=======================

Gnome-speech provides a simple general API for producing text-to-speech
(TTS) output.  It also provides drivers for several TTS engines, both
commercial and open source. Note that gnome-speech itself does not do
the actual audio output or speech synthesis.  Instead, it relies upon
the speech engine itself to perform these options.

The gnome-speech 0.4.2 release is designated for all releases of GNOME
since v2.12.  This includes, for example, GNOME 2.22.x, 2.24.x and
2.25.x for those of you who may be wondering.  :-)

=========================================
* What's changed for gnome-speech 0.4.22?
=========================================

* drivers/swift/swiftsynthesisdriver.c: fix for bug #559583 - Swift
synthesis driver causes Python client to get "TypeError: could not
demarshal return value" on call to getAllVoices.

=====================
* Where can I get it?
=====================

Source code:
http://download.gnome.org/sources/gnome-speech/0.4/gnome-speech-0.4.22.tar.bz2
http://download.gnome.org/sources/gnome-speech/0.4/gnome-speech-0.4.22.tar.gz

Enjoy.

    which can be verified with:

	http://cairographics.org/releases/cairo-1.8.4.tar.gz.sha1
	57fd2c7e0af16bee7cd53436d7c9dc526784f1da  cairo-1.8.4.tar.gz

	http://cairographics.org/releases/cairo-1.8.4.tar.gz.sha1.asc
	(signed by Carl Worth)

  Additionally, a git clone of the source tree:

	git clone git://git.cairographics.org/git/cairo

    will include a signed 1.8.4 tag which points to a commit named:
	66e8f142e381501d114888c2d1fc1e7f6d6a9857

    which can be verified with:
	git verify-tag 1.8.4

    and can be checked out with a command such as:
	git checkout -b build 1.8.4

The cairo community is pleased to announce the 1.8.4 release of the
cairo graphics library. This is the second update to cairo's stable
1.8 series and contains a small number of bug fixes, (in particular a
few fixes for build failures of cairo 1.8.2 on various systems). This
is being released just over two weeks after cairo 1.8.2.

We recommend that everyone using cairo upgrade to 1.8.4.

-Carl

Build fixes
-----------
Fix build with older XRender that doesn't define RepeatNone:

   Build of xlib backend fails against old XRender (RepeatNone
undeclared)
   https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18385

Fix build with bash version <= 3.0:

   doltlibtool broken on linux with bash 3.00.0
   https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18363

Bug fixes

fonts in poppler (unsigned promotion fixes):

    Use cairo user-font for Type 3 fonts

http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/poppler/2008-October/004181.html

Avoid miscomputing size of fallback images required when rendering
with CLEAR, IN, or SOURCE operator to vector surfaces, (PS, PDF, SVG,
etc.).

Be more tolerant of broken fonts when subsetting type1 fonts:

   Error handling in cairo_type1_font_subset_get_glyph_names_and_widths

http://lists.cairographics.org/archives/cairo/2008-October/015569.html

Fix cairo_fill_extents, cairo_stroke_extents, cairo_path_extents, to
correctly allow NULL parameters as documented.

Swfdec 0.9.2 is out

Hello,

Here is the first update in the unstable 0.9 series for Swfdec. Swfdec
is the Free Flash player used by GNOME.

swfdec-0.9.2 ("Bloxorz")
http://swfdec.freedesktop.org/download/swfdec/0.9/swfdec-0.9.2.tar.gz
MD5: 7be5e39236e2d6efa61a18e83e5ab73d

swfdec-mozilla-0.9.2 ("Hi new Kenny.")
http://swfdec.freedesktop.org/download/swfdec-mozilla/0.9/swfdec-mozilla-0.9.2.tar.gz
MD5: 5e19c365d02f1ece2e7caec13c2b23d4

Apart from implementing filters like blur, we took the time to rewrite
the scripting engine for compatibility, performance, size and most of
all, cleaner code. I'm delighted to report that it seems to have been
successful. But of course it didn't help code stability a lot.

Nonetheless, Swfdec still follows the no-crashes-allowed policy.
Should you still succeed in finding a crasher, please immediately file
a bug at https://bugs.freedesktop.org.

For more information about Swfdec, see http://swfdec.freedesktop.org

Cheers,
Benjamin

Libgda and Libgnomedb 3.99.6

I'm pleased to announce the version 3.99.6 of Libgda and Libgnomedb.

Important note: Libgda's API is now declared stable for the next V4 release (subsequent 3.99.X releases will concentrate only on bug fixes), Libgnomedb's API will continue to change before a stable release.

Short description:
------------------------
Libgda is a (relatively small) database access library:
* a wrapper like ODBC but with more features to access several database engines
* a general data model to use CVS or XML files
* a meta data extractor (to know all about database objects in a comman way)
* comes with an SQL console application (like mysql, psql or sqlite3 consoles)
* relies on GLib, coded in C, its API is easy to use

Libgnomedb mainly features some GTK+ based data bound widgets using Libgda for data access.


Changes for this version of Libgda:
-----------------------------------------------
 - A few API improvements
 - MySQL provider improvements (Carlos Savoretti)
 - Performances improvements, and memory leaks removal
 - use the G_TYPE_GTYPE type instead of ulong
 - better control of exported symbols in the final library and providers
 - better binreloc behaviour in 64 bits
 - use custom marshallers for GError, GType and GValue in signals (bug #555905)
 - bug fixes: #541991, #546339, #555905, #556258, #556327, #556960, #529794 (Johannes Schmid,
   Massimo Cora', Vivien Malerba)
 - Translations:
    - es (Jorge Gonzalez)
    - sv (Daniel Nylander)

Changes for Libgnomedb:
-----------------------------------
 - Adaptations to Libgda's V4 API changes
 - Translations:
    - es (Jorge Gonzalez)
    - hu (Gabor Kelemen)

Tarballs are available at http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/libgda/3.99/
Pease note that for the first time Win32 archives are also available at http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/binaries/win32/

To install this new version, you'll need glib, libxml2, and
optionnally libxslt; this version can be installed side by side with
the V3 version.

You can find more information at the projects' homepage
(http://www.gnome-db.org), or you can ask any question/propose
anything you want in the GNOME-DB mailing list, which is available at
http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-db-list

- drives are now probed asynchronously and may not popup immediatly but brasero starts faster
- some parts of GUI were revisited (in particular the burn option dialogs)

Also there is a new nautilus extension which can be installed in parallel with NCB.

#550050 – First run dialog after burn
#549852 – Data DVD+RW detected badly as multisession
#538298 – Burn image dialog history
#547731 – warn idiot users ...

And many other bugs that were fixed before they were reported in bugzilla.

Thanks to all the people who contributed to this release through patches, translations, advices, artwork and bug reports.

NOTE for translators: I'm sorry if we didn't give any notice about our plans. I've just become father again and I simply forgot.
So to make sure this doesn't happen again here are the plans for upcoming releases.
1st we'd like to fix/review all strings since some are broken, redundant ... so please file bugs about anything that seems fishy; then we'll branch brasero for 0.9.0 and target GTK+ 2.14.

GNOME 2.25.1 Released!

GNOME 2.25.1 Development Release
================================

And here's the beginning of a new cycle! 2.25.1 marks the first release
towards our 2.26 release that will happen in March 2009. Until then, I'm
sure we'll see some good changes going on -- like all the efforts about
getting rid of libgnome or cleaning up various things. Isn't this
wonderful? I do think it is, and I hope you all agree. At least, you
should. Really. Because it means we're alive and kicking! (I was going
to sing the song, but, hrm, no, you don't want to hear me sing)

To compile GNOME 2.25.1, you can use GARNOME [1] (which supports users
and has additional/different modules available), or the jhbuild [2]
modulesets [3] (which use the exact tarball versions from the official
release):
  [1] http://www.gnome.org/projects/garnome/
  [2] http://library.gnome.org/devel/jhbuild/
  [3] http://download.gnome.org/teams/releng/2.25.1/

The release notes that describe the changes between 2.24.1 and 2.25.1
are available. Go read them to learn all the goodness of this release:

platform - http://download.gnome.org/platform/2.25/2.25.1/NEWS
desktop  - http://download.gnome.org/desktop/2.25/2.25.1/NEWS

bindings - http://download.gnome.org/bindings/2.25/2.25.1/NEWS
devtools - http://download.gnome.org/devtools/2.25/2.25.1/NEWS

The GNOME 2.25.1 release is available here:

platform sources - http://download.gnome.org/platform/2.25/2.25.1/
desktop  sources - http://download.gnome.org/desktop/2.25/2.25.1/

bindings sources - http://download.gnome.org/bindings/2.25/2.25.1/
devtools sources - http://download.gnome.org/devtools/2.25/2.25.1/

WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
--------------------------

This release is a snapshot of development code. Although it is
buildable and usable, it is primarily intended for testing and hacking
purposes. GNOME uses odd minor version numbers to indicate
development status.

For more information about 2.25, the full schedules, the official
modules list and the proposed modules list, please see our 2.25 page:
  http://www.gnome.org/start/unstable/

Also take a look at the abbreviated schedule reminder page at:
  http://live.gnome.org/Schedule

We hope you'll love it,

The GNOME Release Team
