Developement with Poco 1.5.x strides ahead.
The next pdr/pdx release will be based on a completly new database schema. This affects especially the performance of pdx calculations - a report with nine diagrams that needed over all about 41s needs now unbelievable 7s (!) which has been achieved by optimizing some database operations.

At the moment I'm testing the already available prerelease of POCO 1.5.0.
This major release will not be source compatible, as all minor releases before have been. This leads to a lot of changes just to restore compilability. Probably this will also end up in some database changes. To get the sources up to date I branched away from the trunk and work on separate sources now.
Probably the next release of pdr/pdx will already be based on POCO 1.5.0.

In future pdr can read input data from the open source micro blogging platform Identi.ca (very similar to Twitter). All outgoing requests will now use SSL. pdx gets a spline function for diagrams.

I published release 1.7.0 today.
This release adds some new pdx functions, especially for drawing automatic or adaptive axes in diagrams. I think these functions are very useful and have been missing a long time. Additionally both applications ...

In the last days I got several compiler and library updates on my Arch Linux. Unfortunately I also updated Poco manually in this time. So I use now gcc 4.6.2, boost 1.48 and Poco 1.4.2p1. The reason why I mention this is that something is wrong. I could neither compile nor run configure without errors.

Twitter support in pdr!
Don't be scared - Twitter is almost ideal for our purposes:
1) it stores an endless list of {timestamp, text} tuples,
2) the RSS feed is well structured and very easy to read,
3) the data can be safely protected from the public,
4) it has a wide range of front ends on many platforms.
So the upcoming release 1.6.0 will be able to process data from a personal Twitter RSS feed which could be more handy than the mail way (and even much more elegant).

In the last days I tested the new Poco 1.4.2 release. Actual sources of pdr/pdx (1.5.0) are ready to be compiled immediately using POCO 1.4.2. No changes are needed for this.
Note: you need to specify --use-poco141 in the call of configure.
