First week of Month of Volatility Plugins II is posted

We are writing as the first week of the second installment of the
Month of Volatility Plugins is now posted. Volatility 2.3 is currently
in beta, and the blog posts are focusing on new features in this
version. This week's posts discussed a number of new address spaces we
have added to support new hardware architectures and file formats.

The first one is the MachO address space used to support Mac Memory Reader:

The third address space allows for analysis of VMware snapshot files
(.vmss and .vmsn):
