One thing that may be of interest that was introduced in virtual silence is the integration of language specific package managers via a tool called Alien.

So far it seems to support Perl, Python, Haskell(Main Alien --help do not list it, but there is a script for it in the Scripts bin dir), Lua and Ruby.

Oh, true that! Alien has been merged into the code base for so long that we didn't really remember to announce it as being one of the new features of the new release. Thanks a lot for pointing that out. We will include a note on that on the web site.
