Subject: [ANNOUNCE] wxWindows 2.4.0
It has been released wxWindows 2.4.0 GUI Library
Web Site: http://www.wxwindows.org
It's license is similar to LGPL (all uses including commercial
ones are permitted)
>From the Readme:
Welcome to wxWindows 2, a sophisticated cross-platform C++
framework for writing advanced GUI applications using (where
possible) the native controls.
In addition to common and advanced GUI facilities such as
frames, scrolling windows, toolbars, tree controls, icons,
device contexts, printing, splitter windows and so on, there are
wrappers for common file operations, and facilities for writing
TCP/IP applications, thread handling, and more. Where certain
features are not available on a platform, such as MDI and tree
controls on Unix, they are emulated.
A detailed 1800-page reference manual is supplied in HTML, PDF
and Windows Help form: see the docs hierarchy.

PasTmon is a passive network application response time monitor. It can
measure the response times and throughput of many of the Internet's most
used protocols such as http, irc, smtp and pop3... The multi-threaded
plugin architecture and configurable transaction signatures makes
PasTmon a no-cost flexible solution for application response time
monitoring.
PasTmon is licensed under the GNU General Public License.
In this release:
Big performance improvements were made by implementing hash tables in
session tracking linked-lists.
Memory leaks in the generic and tcpsynack plugins were fixed.
An experimental signature file was added for tracking transactions in
the SSL protocol.
Improvements were made to the performance of the pastmonphp Web
interface.
MSIE's HTTP implementation is now supported.
PasTmon was ported to Tru64.
Many other bugfixes and improvements were also made.

Subject: LILO version 22.4 released
Date: Sun, 26 Jan 2003 09:51:28 CST
Reply-To: Read@MY.fullname.FOR.reply.TO
LILO release 22.4 is based upon Werner Almesberger's LILO version 21.
Version 22.4 is a minor update to version 22.3.
o Virtual booting is supported with new keywords 'vmdefault', 'vmdisable',
and 'vmwarn'.
Version 22.3 is a major update to version 22.2.
o The distribution consists of /sbin/lilo ONLY; all *.b files are
incorporated within this file (builtin).
o A bitmap file header editor is incorporated (-E flag).
o The map file unifies the second stage, chain, message file, and bitmap
files.
o -E, -F, and -B flags are added (see man pages).
o Chain loader will now pass a command line to a second LILO installation.
o Boot protocol 0203h is now supported. "large-memory" option added to
force initial ramdisk loading to highest memory.
o "vga=" on command line allows any radix input.
Versions 22.2, 22.1, 22.0 are major updates to version 21.
*** THE VERSION 22 RAID1 IMPLEMENTATION IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH VERSION 21.
Those using version 21 should read 'README.raid1' before installing these
new codes. There is a compatibility mode (lilo -x mbr-only) for existing
RAID1 installations which are not going to be converted to the Version 22
implementation.
Source code is available for download from:
http://brun.dyndns.org/pub/linux/lilo (developer's site)
Or from the main distribution site:
ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/boot/lilo (please use)
See the distribution file 'CHANGES' for details of the differences between
22.4 and prior releases.
