Recently, jQuery 1.4 was released, with a maintenance release 1.4.2 a few days ago. In a move comparable to what we are doing with ImpressCMS release 1.3, the jQuery developers chose the jQuery 1.4 release to be a release focused on speed and cleanup of the codebase. Mostly, just cleaning up the codebase results in quite some speed advancements, so those two efforts are frequently combined. The changelog for this latest release of the Javascript library mentions performance improvements in many areas : CSS methods, Attributes and many of the most-used functions. However, the changelog also details some backward incompatible changes with previous versions. These incompatibilities can be countered by installing this specific plugin. >>> Related posts:

It made email conversations much less impersonal by showing images of the persons that I was having an email conversation with. The beauty of the system was that I didn't have to do anything: images were gathered from gravatar.com, X-faces, or embedded PNG images. Then Thunderbird 3 came along, and busted quite a bit of plugins. Sadly for me, both MessageFaces and Lightning, the calendar plugin, ceased to work. >>> Related posts:

The video shows the game in action, from both sides, both with offence and defence gameplay. How this is going to be implemented in the game itself is of course the important point. I do hope that the video was sped up a bit, as the game speed shown in the video made me think of one of those nervous coin-up arcade machines, where your only goal is to slap the buttons as hard and as fast as possible. >>> Related posts:
