Netlib
youresam from our forums has just updated netlib. It's a library of functions which developers can use so that they don't have to re-type the code. They can simply call the functions from this library and it will do its work. And in the newest version, youresam has added a really wacky function. You can make phone-calls! Yep, you read that right
Text Coord finder
Gutya from our forums has released a homebrew application to help developers whilst making homebrew games. This small, simple application allows you to see where to place your text on an image, useful when making a main navigation menu; where getting the text in exactly the right place takes up quite a bit of time
Netlib
this is netlib v1.4. It features sending text messages (SMS) to a cell phone. (Its free for you, and cheap for them!) But seriously, it is free for you, but it acts like a normal text message for them
PSP Packer
Ok, this is one of those developer-only news, so bear with me if you don't quite understand this article. TyRaNiD, the creator of PSPLINK, has updated his program PSP Packer.
PSP Packer is an application to compress your PBPs to save space. Only on 1.0 and 1.5, though

Many gamers enjoy "modding" their games by importing their own props into the game environment. This is very common, and relatively easy to do, with PC games such as The Sims 2, because of the relative abundance of third-party utilities designed for this purpose
myLCD
Okio from our forums has just updated myLCD. This tool is only for developers. If you don't understand a word of what I say, don't worry. You don't need to understand this unless you're a developer.
First the greek explanation. (Well, not greek actually. But to most of you, it will look greek ;-) )
myLCD is a Unicode Text Rendering Library

Lua Devkit
Among all the homebrew news which I personally report, my favorite would be updates regarding development tools and the like. It's great to see people making tools which other people can use to save time and make better homebrew. gosugenji from our forums would be one such example.
He has just released a Lua Devkit for budding Lua developers
Updater Mode Patch for eLoader 0.97
Fanjita and Ditlew have released the Updater Mode Patch for eLoader 0.97. This patch allows eLoader 0.97 ("Bock") to support UPDATER mode on PSPs with firmware version 2.0 or 2.01. "This patch is of interest only to developers wishing to explore UPDATER mode
PSPLINK 0.9h
TyRaNiD, one of my favorite developers, has just updated PSPLINK. In case you've been out for a while, PSPLINK is a great tool for PSP developers. It allows you to do a lot of stuff without going back to the PSP's XMB, or technically, VSH. And that in itself is a great boon for developers
