Open Source Update: jQuery PeriodicalUpdater, TestingLabs, GPars, etc.

I’ve done a fair bit of fairly small open source updates recently.
jQuery PeriodicalUpdater: The main function now returns a handle that can be used to callstop(), thereby ignoring any updates that may come back and preventing future updates from being sent.TestingLabs: I released TestingLabs 0.4 to work with Grails 1.2.0. Had a bug with versioning under Grails: More info on JIRA.Presentations: I’m now storing the slides for my presentations on GitHub. They’re under a Creative Commons License.ClosureBridge: This is a tiny library (up on the repo.smokejumperit.com Maven repo) that provides a link between Groovy’s Closures and Callable/Runnable/Java code.Fun with GPars: A small library where I was experimenting with GParsGPars: Submitted a fix and generally been discussing things with the GPars community (and by that, I mean Vacalv Pech)
See my GitHub page for more info.
