[ANNOUNCE] Vala 0.12.1 - Compiler for the GObject type system

We are pleased to announce version 0.12.1 of Vala, a compiler for the
GObject type system.

Vala 0.12.1 is now available for download at:
   http://download.gnome.org/sources/vala/0.12/

Changes since 0.12.0
 * Many bug fixes and binding updates.

Vala is a new programming language that aims to bring modern programming
language features to GNOME developers without imposing any additional
runtime requirements and without using a different ABI compared to
applications and libraries written in C.

valac, the Vala compiler, is a self-hosting compiler that translates
Vala source code into C source and header files. It uses the GObject
type system to create classes and interfaces declared in the Vala source
code.

More information about Vala is available at

        http://www.vala-project.org/

folks-0.5.2.tar.xz

libfolks 0.5.2 — If You're Into It 
========================================================================
Libfolks pulls together contacts from any number of accounts supported
by the libfolks backends. This release includes a number of backends,
including Telepathy, libsocialweb, Tracker, and a simple key-file
backend. We would like to include additional backends (especially
evolution-data-server), so let us know if we can help!

The 0.5.x series is not API or ABI stable, so please proceed with
caution (or develop against the stable 0.4.x series).

See the NEWS file for details on every break we make. In future
releases, we will have example programs that will be kept up-to-date
with the latest API as well.

For more information, see the Folks wiki page:
http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/wiki/Folks

ANNOUNCE: tracker 0.10.16 released (stable)

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

http://download.gnome.org/sources/tracker/0.10/

What is it?
===========

Tracker is a semantic data storage for desktop and mobile devices. 
Tracker uses W3C standards for RDF ontologies using Nepomuk with SPARQL 
to query and update the data.

Tracker is a central repository of user information, that provides two 
big benefits for the user; shared data between applications and 
information which is relational to other information (for example: 
mixing contacts with files, locations, activities and etc.).

What's New?
===========

Bugs Fixed:

   * Fixes GB#650804, tarball doesn't contain tracker-search-bar.1
   * Fixes NB#258488, Don't (re)instantiate tracker-extract after recent 
pre-unmount signals causing potential unmount failures
   * Fixes MB#18159, tracker can't index real media
   * libtracker-data: Fixed memory leak in 
tracker_class_reset_super_classes()
   * libtracker-miner: Honor auto_start parameter in 
tracker_miner_manager_new_full()

glib-2.29.6.tar.xz

The is another development snapshot of the 2.29 series.

Overview of changes from GLib 2.29.4 to 2.29.6
==============================================

* Atomic operations have been rewritten from scratch to make use
  of gcc builtins where possible. As a side-effect of this, calls
  to g_atomic_ API with explicit casts may now be problematic; if
  that happens to you, try first to remove the casts. Another
  side-effect of the rewrite is that g_atomic_int_exchange_and_add
  has been deprecated in favor of g_atomic_int_add.

* A full set of atomic operations on pointers has been added,
  including bit locks in pointer-size locations.

* Access to quarks is now lockless

* GObject data scalability has been greatly improved

* g_data_time_format now supports alternative digits and padding

GTK+ 3.0.11

 ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/3.0/
 http://download.gnome.org/sources/gtk+/3.0/

+-3.0.11.tar.xz

This is the another bug fix release in the stable 3.0 series,
mainly aimed at making accessibility work better.

============

GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user
interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for
projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application
suites.

GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a range of
languages, not only C/C++. Using GTK+ from languages such as Perl and
Python (especially in combination with the Glade GUI builder) provides
an effective method of rapid application development.

GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. However, the
licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all
developers, including those developing proprietary software, without
any license fees or royalties.
