name: Market Analysis System 1.4

download: http://freshmeat.net/projects/marketanalysissystem/download/
changelog: http://freshmeat.net/projects/marketanalysissystem/changelog/
description:
The Market Analysis System (MAS) is a software application that
provides tools for technical analysis of financial markets, including
stock charting and automated generation of buy and sell signals. The
MAS server was developed in Eiffel. The MAS GUI client was developed in
Java.
changes:
GUI changes: Support for intraday data. Screen layout improvements:
Bars in the right and bottom margins (and the date and numeric
reference values moved to within these bars to clean up the clutter
they were causing when they were inside the graph), and display of
reference values for indicators in the bottom right margin; values for
the last indicator selected are displayed. Server changes: Database
capability for the Linux version (MAS can now obtain its market data
from a database instead of from files, on both Linux and Windows),
extended validation of input data to be much more robust, a strict
checking option to specify that all records with errors are to be
discarded, capability to handle intraday data (the server can now
produce 10-, 15-, 20-, 30-minute, and hourly data from 5-minute data
and the same set plus 2-minute data from 1-minute data), and an
improved commandline interface for adding, editing, and removing
technical indicators, market analyzers, and market event registrants.

description:
4Suite is a collection of Python tools and libraries for XML processing
and object database management, including support for transient and
persistent DOM, XPath, XPointer, XLink, XSLT, RDF, XInclude, and more.
changes:
General changes: documentation updates and consolidation, a domlette
reader option to force 8-bit DOM strings even in Python 2.0, XInclude,
and many Python 1.5.2 and 2.0 compatibility fixes, bugfixes, and
optimizations. In DOM: a native sgmlop reader, proper SAX2 support for
the reader, and an update to the 2000-11-13 level 2 recommendation. In
DbDom: implementation of cloneNode and document fragments. In RDF:
removeAll added to Model. In XPath: extension functions: evaluate,
distinct, split, range, if, and find. In XSLT: unparsed-entity-uri, a
more thorough test harness, restricted HTML writer output which is
allowed as a security tool, and support for source docs from stdin on
the 4xslt commandline. The Reader and URI handler APIs have been
organized to allow easier customizations. PyXML (0.6.3 + fixes) is now
built in.

description:
The Global File System (GFS) is a 64-bit shared disk cluster file
system for Linux. GFS cluster nodes physically share the same storage
by means of Fibre Channel or shared SCSI devices. The file system
appears to be local on each node and GFS synchronizes file access
across the cluster. GFS is fully symmetric, meaning that all nodes are
equal and there is no server which may be a bottleneck or single point
of failure. GFS uses read and write caching while maintaining full UNIX
file system semantics. GFS supports journaling, recovery from client
failures, and many other features.
changes:
This is the first stable release of GFS; there are no known bugs that
are not documented in the Release Notes.

description:
DansGuardian is a filtering proxy that uses Squid to do all the
fetching. It filters using two methods. First, it checks the actual
content of the pages against a configurable denied phrase list. This
list will contain profanities and phrases often associated with
pornography and other undesirable content. Second, it implements PICS
filtering. The filtering has a configurable url exception list. It does
not implement a url check against a list of sites like squidGuard; it
checks the actual content of the pages.
changes:
Removal of redundant code and most of the debug code, new source code
comments, all options work now, a new SysV script and Makefile for
easier installation and compilation, and speed improvements.

to cache poisoning. It is advisable to use the package as a secure

description:
integrit is an alternative to file integrity verification programs like
tripwire and aide. It helps you determine whether an intruder has
modified a computer system. integrit's major advantages are a small
memory footprint and simplicity. It works by creating a database that
is a snapshot of the most essential parts of your computer system. You
put the database somewhere safe, and you can then use it to make sure
that no one has made any illicit modifications to the computer system.
In the case of a break in, you know exactly which files have been
modified, added, or removed.
changes:
This is the first stable release. It includes a new tool, i-ls, that
allows users to view integrit-related information (ctime, SHA-1
checksum, etc.) for live files. Also, there are improvements to the

description:
Match is designed to match up items with two-dimensional coordinates
(x, y) from two different lists. The lists may differ by an arbitrary
translation, rotation, and scaling. The user may choose a simple linear
translation, or include quadratic or cubic distortion terms. The
package was designed to match lists of stars, and so includes auxiliary
programs to project spherical coordinates onto a tangent plane, and to
invert the projection.
changes:
The user now has more control over the main loop in which the program
searches for a solution: one can now place a hard limit on the number
of iterations, or specify a target for the size of the residuals.
