Announcements
----

  CHP package. Neil Brown [2]announced the release of version 1.2.0 of
  the [3]CHP library (which supports explicit message-passing concurrency
  in Haskell), with various bug-fixes and a new "clock" synchronisation
  primitive.

  io-capture-0.2 capturing std(out|err) in IO action. Yusaku Hashimoto
  [10]announced the release of [11]io-capture 0.2, a library to capture
  stdout and stderr in an IO action. It exports a function capture, which
  takes an IO action and a String representing the entire input, and
  returns Strings representing the data written to stdout and stderr.

  wxAsteroids 1.0. Henk-Jan van Tuyl [12]announced [13]wxAsteroids, a
  game demonstrating the wxHaskell GUI.

  The votes are in!. Eelco Lempsink [14]announced that the [15]results of
  the Haskell logo competition are in! Congratulations to Jeff Wheeler on
  his winning design.

  WinGhci, a GUI for GHCI on Windows. Pepe Gallardo [17]announced the
  first release of [18]WinGhci, a simple GUI for GHCI on Windows. It is
  closely based on WinHugs, and provides similar functionality.

  hranker: Basic utility for ranking a list of items (e.g. for the logo
  poll). Robin Green [19]announced [20]hranker, a command-line utility
  that helps the user rank a list of items (of any type implementing
  Show, Eq and Ord). The hope is that the code is sufficiently clear that
  it could also serve as an educational piece of code, especially for
  people wanting to learn how to use the HCL library.

  salvia-0.1, salvia-extras-0.1. Sebastiaan Visser [21]announced a new
  version of [22]Salvia, a lightweight Haskell Web Server Framework.
  Changes in this release include easier dependencies, some new default
  handler environments that simplify setting up a server application,
  support for keep-alive, a great deal of additional documentation,
  support for Windows, and various cleanup and bug fixes.

  Haddock 2.4.2. David Waern [23]announced a new release of [24]Haddock,
  the Haskell documentation tool. This is a bug fix release only, and
  it's the same version that will ship with GHC 6.10.2, unless any
  important problems are discovered before the GHC release. Because the
  .haddock file format has changed, links to previously installed
  documentation will not work when generating documentation using this
  version.

  ansi-terminal, ansi-wl-pprint - ANSI terminal support for Haskell. Max
  Bolingbroke [25]announced the [26]ansi-terminal and [27]ansi-wl-pprint
  packages, which allow Haskell programs to produce much richer console
  output by allowing colorisation, emboldening and so on. Both Unix-like
  (OS X, Linux) and Windows operating systems are supported (via a pure
  Haskell ANSI emulation layer for Windows).

  I/O library for Windows. Felix Martini [28]announced the [29]package,
  an I/O library for Windows using Windows API functions with I/O
  completion port support. The main goal of this library is to support
  Simon Marlow's new Handle API once he has added that to GHC. The
  library also has a compatibility module for socket functions from the
  network-bytestring package.
