    [$] A GNU C Library update
    A traditional feature of the tools track at the Linux Foundation's
    Collaboration
    Summit     is an update from the developers of the GNU C Library
    (glibc); that tradition was upheld in fine form at the 2015 event. Glibc
    developer Roland McGrath noted that while the project is a critical
    component in vast numbers of Linux installations, it does not have a lot of
    developers working on it. Still, even with a relatively small developer
    base, some real progress has been made over the last year.
    6:50p
    FOSDEM videos
    Videos from FOSDEM sessions are available in mp4 format. WebM
    versions will become available later. (Thanks to Scott Dowdle)
    7:16p
    Firefox 36 released
    Mozilla has released Firefox 36.0. The release
    notes     mention a few new features, including support for the full
    HTTP/2 protocol. This version will no longer accept insecure RC4 ciphers
    whenever possible and certificates with 1024-bit RSA keys will be phased
    out. See the release notes for more information.
