  thing updated was npm, which is shipped seperately.  The latest was only
  packaged to avoid confusion.  Please see the v0.10.27 changelog for relevant
  changes in this update:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


================================================================================
 perl-Cpanel-JSON-XS-3.0104-1.el6 (FEDORA-EPEL-2014-1320)
 JSON::XS for Cpanel, fast and correct serializing
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update adds compatibility with JSON::XS 3.x booleans and support for LZMA compression using Compress::LZF.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:

* Sat Apr 26 2014 Paul Howarth <paul at city-fan.org> - 3.0104-1
- Update to 3.0104
  - Add t/z_leaktrace.t
  - Restore build on C89
  - Fix small cxt->sv_json leak on interp exit
* Tue Apr 22 2014 Paul Howarth <paul at city-fan.org> - 3.0103-1
- Update to 3.0103
  - Change booleans interop logic (again) for JSON-XS-3.01
    - Check now for Types::Serialiser::Boolean i.e. JSON::PP::Boolean refs
      (https://github.com/rurban/Cpanel-JSON-XS/issues/18) to avoid
      allow_blessed for JSON-XS-3.01 booleans
  - Fix boolean representation for JSON-XS-3.01/Types::Serialiser::Boolean
    interop (arrayref, not hashref)
  - Add t/52_object.t from JSON::XS
  - Backport encode_hv HE sort on stack < 64 or heap to avoid stack overflows
    from JSON-XS-3.01; do not use alloca
  - Backport allow_tags, decode_tag, FREEZE/THAW callbacks from JSON-XS-3.01
  - Added pod for OBJECT SERIALISATION (allow_tags, FREEZE/THAW)
* Thu Apr 17 2014 Paul Howarth <paul at city-fan.org> - 3.0102-1
- Update to 3.0102
  - Added PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT for better performance on threaded Perls

  - const'ed a translation table for memory savings
  - Fixed booleans for JSON 2.9 and JSON-XS-3.01 interop; JSON does not
    support JSON::XS booleans anymore, so I cannot think of any reason to
    still use JSON::XS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Python modules for talking to Fedora Infrastructure Services
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Fix two security issues for services using python-fedora's TG1 and flask helpers.

The TG1 fix quotes variables that could have been used to launch an XSS attack.

The flask fix addresses OpenID Covert Redirect for web services which use flask_fas_openid to authenticate against the Fedora Account System.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:

* Fri May  2 2014 Toshio Kuratomi <toshio at fedoraproject.org> - 0.3.34-1

  with python-fedora
* Fri Mar 14 2014 Toshio Kuratomi <toshio at fedoraproject.org> - 0.3.33-3
- Do not build the TG1 subpackage on EPEL7.  Infrastructure is going to port
  its applications away from TG1 by the time they switch to RHEL7.  So we want
  to get rid of TurboGears1 packages before RHEL7.
- Fix conditionals so that they include the proper packages on epel7
* Fri Jan 10 2014 Dennis Gilmore <dennis at ausil.us> - 0.3.33-2

 v8-3.14.5.10-8.el6 (FEDORA-EPEL-2014-1322)
 JavaScript Engine
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update modifies the way V8 queries the system time, greatly improving performance on virtual machines where the real time clock is virtualized.

For more information, see: https://github.com/joyent/node/commit/f9ced08de30c37838756e8227bd091f80ad9cafa

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:

* Sat May  3 2014 T.C. Hollingsworth <tchollingsworth at gmail.com> - 1:3.14.5.10-8
- use clock_gettime() instead of gettimeofday(), which increases V8 performance
  dramatically on virtual machines
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


================================================================================
 web-assets-5-2.el6 (FEDORA-EPEL-2014-1323)
 A simple framework for bits pushed to browsers
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update introduces the base filesystem layout for Web Assets to EPEL 6. The proposed shared http path for Web Assets is not implemented in this update.

This will enable packagers to unbundle libraries from their packages and utilize the new standard directories for doing so as they desire.
Use of the functionality provided by this package is entirely optional. No coordinated unbundling effort will take place for this release.

For more information, see: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Web_Assets
