mod_asn 1.5
mod_asn is an Apache module that uses BGP routing data to look up the autonomous system (AS) and the network prefix (subnet) which contains a given (client's) IP address. mod_asn is highly scalable. To do lookups in high-speed, it uses the PostgreSQL ip4r datatype, which is indexable with a Patricia Trie algorithm to store network prefixes. This is the most suitable algorithm, being able to search through around 250,000 existing prefixes quickly. mod_asn is usable as a standalone module, and the lookup result can be used by scripts or other Apache modules. For instance, a download redirector could base its decisions on the lookup result provided by mod_asn.
Release Notes: An important bugfix regarding IPv6 connectivity. Lookups of IPv6 addresses could cause database server crashes. These lookups are now avoided. Furthermore, the compile-time check for the APR/APR-Util library version is now a runtime check.

Seed7 2010-09-05
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: The chapter explaining the type 'time' in the manual was improved. The support for source level debugging in the compiler (comp.sd7) was improved. Now the option -g generates better #line directives, and the 'main' function was arranged such that the current line shown by a debugger is correct when the program is started. In the "seed7_05.s7i" library, the function "rpos" was overloaded to do a reverse search for a character in a string starting from a given position. The files "str_rtl.c", "strlib.c", "primitiv.c", and the compiler were improved to support the primitive action STR_RCHIPOS.
