Mozilla Thunderbird is a redesign of the Mozilla mail component. Our goal is to produce a cross platform stand alone mail application using the XUL user interface language. Our intended customer is someone who uses Mozilla Firebird (or another stand alone browser) as their primary browser and wants a mail client based on mozilla that "plays nice" with the browser. In addition, by focusing solely on stand alone mail, we believe we can make some dents in the overall footprint and performance of the mail client by removing components and chrome we don't need. On top of that, the UI becomes much cleaner as a stand alone application as opposed to being part of the mozilla suite. |

Severity Rating: Important
Revision Note: V1.0 (May 14, 2013): Bulletin published.
Summary: This security update resolves eleven privately reported vulnerabilities in Microsoft Office. The vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if a user open a specially crafted Publisher file with an affected version of Microsoft Publisher. An attacker who successfully exploited these vulnerabilities could gain the same user rights as the current user. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights. |

The first beta release of PostgreSQL 9.3, the latest version of the world's best open source database, is now available. This beta contains previews of all of the features which will be available in version 9.3, and is ready for testing by the worldwide PostgreSQL community. Please download, test, and report what you find.
Major Features
The major features available for testing in this beta include:
- Writeable Foreign Tables, enabling pushing data to other databases
- pgsql_fdw driver for federation of PostgreSQL databases
- Automatically updatable VIEWs
- MATERIALIZED VIEW declaration
- LATERAL JOINs
- Additional JSON constructor and extractor functions
- Indexed regular expression search
- Disk page checksums to detect filesystem failures
In 9.3, PostgreSQL has greatly reduced its requirement for SysV shared memory, changing to mmap(). This allows easier installation and configuration of PostgreSQL, but means that we need our users to rigorously test and ensure that no memory management issues have been introduced by the change. We also request that users spend extra time testing the improvements to Foreign Key locks.
Additional Features
Additional features included in this release are:
- Fast failover to replicas for high availability
- Streaming-only remastering of replicas
- Performance and locking improvements for Foreign Key locks
- Parallel pg_dump for faster backups
- Directories for configuration files
- pg_isready database connection checker
- COPY FREEZE for reduced IO bulk loading
- User-defined background workers for automating database tasks
- Recursive view declaration
- lock_timeout directive
For a full listing of the features in version 9.3 Beta, please see the release notes. Additional descriptions and notes on the new features are available on the 9.3 Features Wiki Page.
Test 9.3 Beta 1 Now
We depend on our community to help test the next version in order to guarantee that it is high-performance and bug-free. Please download PostgreSQL 9.3 Beta 1 and try it with your workloads and applications as soon as you can, and give feedback to the PostgreSQL developers. Features and APIs in Beta 1 will not change substantially before final release, so it is now safe to start building applications against the new features. More information on how to test and report issues
Get the PostgreSQL 9.3 Beta 1, including binaries and installers for Windows, Linux and Mac from our download page.
Full documentation of the new version is available online, and also installs with PostgreSQL. |
