update-hosts has been, well, updated.
Version 2 brings support for ipsets along with hosts files. The tool will aggregate ipsets from various sources around the Internet. It will parse these set in the same way that it handles hosts files, and then will add them into the ipset if it exists. If it does not exist, it will not touch anything. It "should" be a bit faster than a script which calls into the ipset command directly to add sources, and by default will save its configuration of ipset to /etc/ipset.conf
Along with the addition of ipset support, the 2.0.0 update brings better handling of errors mid script and cleans up after itself more reliably.
Later today/tomorrow, PadLock update to fix some bugs and add (a) new feature(s). This update will bump the database version, so you will need to re-create your locked application list.
Later on Power Manager, later still SoftGlow.
