[001] - afio 2.4.7.9beta4 (Beta)
by Koen Holtman (http://freshmeat.net/users/kholtman/)
Wednesday, December 4th 2002 18:09
System :: Archiving :: Backup
System :: Archiving :: Compression
About: Afio makes cpio-format archives. It deals somewhat gracefully with
input data corruption, supports multi-volume archives during interactive
operation, and can make compressed archives that are much safer than
compressed tar or cpio archives. Afio is best used as an `archive engine'
in a backup script.
Changes: >2GB file and archive support were added. Use of this beta is
definitely not recommended if you do not need >2GB support.

[002] - Amaya 7.0
by Paul (http://freshmeat.net/users/Amayadev/)
Wednesday, December 4th 2002 01:48
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Browsers
About: Amaya is a complete web browsing and authoring environment and
comes equipped with a WYSIWYG style of interface. It lets users both
browse and author valid Web pages, with standards including (X)HTML,
native MathML, and SVG documents. It also includes a collaborative
annotation application (RDF).
Changes: The new features include several user interface enhancements, a
migration to the Raptor parser, and improved support for XML, SVG, and
CSS. An OpenGL version is now shipping with support for SVG opacity and
PNG transparency, and Font anti-aliasing under Unix. Documentation for
languages other than English are now packaged separately.

[003] - Arkeia 5.0.8
by Arkeia Software Corp (http://freshmeat.net/users/arkeia/)
Wednesday, December 4th 2002 07:55
System :: Archiving :: Backup
About: Arkeia is the solution for automated backup/archiving and
restoration on Linux, UNIX, and Windows NT networks. ARKEIA utilizes an
exclusive multi-flow technology to deliver speeds that are 200 to 300%
faster than rival software packages. Its unique transaction engine allows
multiple backups and restores to be performed simultaneously with total
reliability. This is especially valuable for multiple users backing up or
restoring data on their own. (A multiple drive library is required).
Changes: The GUI was redesigned and enhanced. Hardware detection was added
to automatically detect devices such as drives and robotics. Other new
features include library sharing, cleaning tape drives, tape duplication,
and backup server catalog optimization. Plugin technology was implemented
for specialized tasks. Some available plugins include a disaster recovery
module and a MySQL hotbackup plugin. FreeBSD 4.x, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and
Netware Novell 5 & 6 are now supported.

[004] - atop 1.8
by Gerlof Langeveld (http://freshmeat.net/users/gela/)
Wednesday, December 4th 2002 06:42
System :: Monitoring
System :: Networking :: Monitoring
System :: Systems Administration
About: Atop is an ASCII full-screen performance monitor, similar to the
top command. At regular intervals, it shows system-level activity related
to the CPU, memory, swap, disks and network layers, and it shows for every
active process the CPU utilization in system and user mode, the virtual
and resident memory growth, priority, username, state, and exit code. The
process level activity is also shown for processes which finished during
the last interval, to get a complete overview about the consumers of
things such as CPU time. Atop only shows the active system-resources and
processes, and only shows the deviations since the previous interval.
Changes: Long-term logging to compressed raw files is automatically
reactivated after a reboot of the system. This means that this feature is
now also available for systems that do not run continually. A bug that
prevented the interval registered in the logfile from being larger than
65535 seconds was fixed.

[005] - Basic Local Alignment Search Tool 12-2002
by Kalou (http://freshmeat.net/users/olivierkaloudoff/)
Wednesday, December 4th 2002 21:46
About: BLAST is a set of similarity search programs designed to explore
all of the available sequence databases regardless of whether the query
is protein or DNA. It uses a heuristic algorithm which seeks local as
opposed to global alignments and is therefore able to detect
relationships among sequences which share only isolated regions of
similarity. It can be run locally as a full executable and can be used to
run BLAST searches against private, local databases, or downloaded copies
of the NCBI databases. It runs on Macintosh, Win32, LINUX, Solaris, IBM
AIX, SGI, Compaq OSF, and HP- UX systems.

About: cDonkey is an open source core client for eDonkey without a GUI. It
works together with eMule and ed2k_gui. It uses Berkley DB-4.1 for fast
List management. The eMule Packet data and source2source exchange was
implemented. It currently only works with Linux.
Changes: Some asserts were fixed. The code was cleaned up. A speedup was
for the GUI, and UL/DL handling was improved. The movement to C++ is
nearly done. Help is wanted to make it compatible with Berkley DB-4.0.

[008] - CGIProxy 2.0.1a
by James Marshall (http://freshmeat.net/users/jamesmarshall/)
Wednesday, December 4th 2002 11:11
Communications :: File Sharing
Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Browsers
About: CGIProxy is a Perl CGI script that acts as an Internet proxy.
Through it, you can retrieve resources that may be inaccessible from your
own machine. The user is kept as anonymous as possible from any servers.
HTTP and FTP are supported, and optionally SSL. Common uses include
VPN-like setups, anonymous proxies, personal proxies, and others. Options
include text-only browsing (to save bandwidth), selective cookie and
script removal, simple ad filtering, access restriction by server, encoded
target URLs and cookies, configuration by end user, and much more
(currently about 45 config options). An online demo is available.
Changes: The focus of this release is to improve compatibility and
installability in various environments. There is support for SSL proxy
with optional authentication. On BSDI and possibly other systems, the
script no longer fails with "Address family not supported". Caches now
refresh as expected. The $RUNNING_ON_WINDOWS flag is no longer needed. The
display accuracy of certain pages when using MSIE has been improved. A
compilation bug with certain older versions of Perl has been fixed.

[009] - Clover framework 0.2
by David Pavlis (http://freshmeat.net/users/dpavlis/)
Wednesday, December 4th 2002 21:51
Database
About: CloverETL is Java-based framework for creating ETL transformations.
It follows the concept of transformation graphs which consist of
individual nodes performing simple operations on data. Any transformation
can be defined as a set of interconnected nodes through which data flows.
Changes: The delimited data parser now supports delimiters up to 32
characters long. A component for sorting data was added, and there is
better handling and reporting of errors. There are some improvements in
speed, and some parts were slightly redesigned.

[010] - Code striker 1.6.1

Wednesday, December 4th 2002 16:06
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
Software Development
Software Development :: Quality Assurance
About: Codestriker is a Perl CGI script that is used for performing code
reviews in a collaborative fashion, as opposed to using patches sent in
unstructured emails. Authors create code review topics, and the nominated
reviewers are automatically notified by email. Reviewers can view the
proposed diff in plain text mode, coloured-diff mode, and can also view
the original and new files that comprise the review in their entirety when
Codestriker is linked with CVS. Comments are made on a per-line basis, and
comments submitted by the other reviewers can be viewed as they are
created. Emails are sent to the appropriate parties when comments are
created. The author is free to submit comments against the review
comments. The end result is a structured set of review comments instead of
a pile of unstructured emails. Codestriker also features the ability to
search over existing topics in a variety of ways.
Changes: Topics now supports a "repository" attribute, which links a topic
to the associated CVS repository the code change is based on. The
specification of a repository can be a local path, or a
cvsweb.cgi/viwecvs.cgi URL + cvsroot. More of the HTML output was
templated, including a header and trailer template for easier site
customisation, and the general look-n-feel was improved. Codestriker (in a
limited form) is deployed online at Sourceforge.

Software Development :: Version Control :: CVS
Utilities
About: Cvsplot is a Perl script which analyses the history of a
CVS-managed project. The script executes on a set of files, analyses their
history, and automatically generates graphs that plot lines of code and
number of files against time.
Changes: Its possible to generate a single plot containing both the line
and file statistics, handle CVS repositories with non-standard revision
numbers (such as those with a head starting at 8.1), and to use the
ShellQuote module for better handling of unusual filenames. Error handling
for when CVS commands fail was also improved.

[014] - Cyrus IMAP Server 2.1.11
by Rob Siemborski (http://freshmeat.net/users/robsiemb/)
Wednesday, December 4th 2002 13:18
Communications :: Email :: Post-Office :: IMAP
Internet
About: The Cyrus IMAP server is generally intended to be run on sealed
systems, where normal users are not permitted to log in. The mailbox
database is stored in parts of the filesystem that are private to Cyrus.
All user access to mail is through the IMAP, POP3, or KPOP protocols. The
private mailbox database design gives the server large advantages in
efficiency, scalability, and administratability. Multiple concurrent
read/write connections to the same mailbox are permitted. The server
supports access control lists on mailboxes and storage quotas on mailbox
hierarchies, multiple SASL mechanisms, and the Sieve mail filtering
language.
Changes: This release corrects the pre-login buffer overflow
vulnerabilities recently mentioned on BUGTRAQ.

Communications :: Email
Security :: Cryptography
About: Enigmailer allows you to send enciphered email with an optional
password hint. The recipient receives a mail message with a link to the
script to facilitate deciphering. It comes in two versions, one for
enciphering mail, the other also supporting multiple recipients, read
receipts, attachments, and logging to allow the recipient to verify the
credentials of the sender. Unlike other secure mail systems, it allows you
to use your existing email address rather than forcing you to setup and
use yet another one, and it does not require the recipient to have
software installed on their machine (other than a browser).
Changes: Fixes for reply code segments, and merging mail file creation
code into common functions.

by Curt Olson (http://freshmeat.net/users/clolson/)
Wednesday, December 4th 2002 05:09
Games/Entertainment
About: The Flight Gear Flight Simulator project is a free, open-source,
multi-platform, cooperative flight sim development project. Source code
for the entire project is available and licensed under the GPL. The Flight
Gear project is working to create a sophisticated flight simulator
framework for the development and pursuit of interesting flight simulator
ideas. We are developing a good basic sim that can be expanded and
improved upon by anyone interested in contributing.
Changes: This is a development release. The 3D cockpit support has been
enhanced to include support for fully animated and clickable 3D objects.
The out-the-window visuals have been improved with runway and taxiway
lighting. Aircraft modeling has also improved with the addition of models
for the vacuum, pitot-static, and electical systems. Other enhancements
include localization support for menus and command line option help and
support for additional joysticks "out of the box". This release requires
plib 1.6.0, SimGear 0.3.0, and the 0.9.0 release of the FlightGear base
package.

[030] - GNU Pth 2.0b2 (Development)
by Ralf S. Engelschall (http://freshmeat.net/users/rse/)
Wednesday, December 4th 2002 07:14
Software Development :: Libraries
About: GNU Portable Threads (Pth) is a very portable POSIX/ANSI-C based
library for Unix platforms providing non-preemptive priority-based
scheduling for multiple threads of execution ("multithreading") inside
server applications. All threads run in the same address space, but each
thread has its own individual program-counter, run-time stack, signal mask
and errno variable. The scheduling is done in a cooperative way, i.e. the
threads are dispatched based on priority and pending events. The event
facility allows threads to wait until various types of events occur,
including pending I/O on filedescriptors, elapsed timers, pending I/O on
message ports, thread and process termination, and even customized
callback functions.
Changes: The build environment was upgraded to GNU Autoconf 2.57. Compiler
warnings which occurred under Linux were fixed. Error handling was fixed
in pth_init(3): it now correctly returns an error instead of calling
abort(3). Soft syscall mapping for the nanosleep(3) and usleep(3)
functions was added to the Pthread API.

Software Development :: Libraries
Text Processing :: Markup :: XML
About: HaXml is a suite of libraries and tools for manipulating XML
documents in Haskell. It includes a parser, a pretty-printer, a
validator, a combinator library for transforming documents, and
converters for changing a Haskell datatype into an XML DTD, and for
changing an XML DTD into a set of Haskell datatypes. There are also tools
for a query language based on XQL.
Changes: A new function, partialValidate, omits the check for whether the
document's root element type matches the DTD's root element. This is
useful to validate any partial document or sub-document. The htmlprint
function had a small bug which caused it to loop infinitely if some text
was longer than 60 characters without a space. The Xtract parser and
combinators are now included in the HaXml library package, rather than
existing solely for the Xtract command-line tool. HaXml now works nicely
with ghc-5.04.x, as well as ghc-5.02.x and nhc98.

Wednesday, December 4th 2002 18:14
Communications :: Email
About: SendEmail is a lightweight tool written in Perl for sending SMTP
email from the console. It was designed to be used in bash scripts, Perl
programs, and Web pages. It requires no special modules, and has a simple
interface, making it very easy to install and use. It should work on any
platform that has Perl and supports Unix sockets, but was designed for
Linux.
Changes: This release is a major cleanup with a few new features. Perl
warnings, and strict mode are now enabled. Logging now works all the time.
The time-zone is now set correctly in the headers. Signal handlers display
a nice message on INT, HUP, etc. Error messages throughout the script have
been vastly improved. It always exits with a proper exit status (zero on
success, and non-zero on error). Automatic support for HTML email was also
added.

[064] - Simple C Expat Wrapper 0.1.0
by Aleix Conchillo Flaque (http://freshmeat.net/users/aleix/)
Wednesday, December 4th 2002 21:45
Software Development :: Libraries
About: The aim of SCEW is to provide an easy interface to the XML Expat
library. Expat gives an API based on event handling mechanisms to load
the XML tree structure. SCEW provides functions to load and access XML
elements without the need to create the event handling routines and
without the need to rewrite these functions each time a different XML
tree needs to be loaded. It also lets developers access the internal
Expat parser, which means they can still have all the functionality that
Expat library provides.

Wednesday, December 4th 2002 05:28
System :: Recovery Tools
About: Simple Rescue CD is a small Linux rescue CD, suitable for booting
systems that have become unbootable due to filesystem corruption or
other problems. It lies somewhere between minimalist boot floppies and
large full-featured rescue systems, and as such is suitable for when
space is tight, such as on business card CDs.
Changes: Booting support was improved, and the kernel was upgraded to
2.4.20. Some minor cosmetic improvements and build fixes were made. If the
previous version didn't boot for you, try this one.

[066] - SmartSieve 0.3.2devel
by stephengrier (http://freshmeat.net/users/stephengrier/)
Wednesday, December 4th 2002 13:09
Communications :: Email :: Post-Office :: IMAP
About: SmartSieve is a Web-based graphical user interface for creating
and managing sieve scripts on a Cyrus IMAP mail server. It provides a
way for non-technical users to generate sieve rules for mail filtering
and vacation messaging without prior knowledge of the sieve scripting
language. It is written in PHP and is intended to be intuitive to use and
simple to configure, and is compatible with Websieve scripts.
Changes: This release runs on php-4.3.0pre2, handles cookie-less browser
sessions, has improved formatting, is more regular across browsers, has
better handling of alternative namespaces, and now uses binary safe fread
rather than fgets. Calling socket_set_timeout() makes SmartSieve less
likely to hang waiting on a socket. read() now calls socket_get_status()
and returns if the socket has timed out or has no bytes left to read. The
options $default->script_date_format and $default->login_page_heading have
been added. It is no longer dependent on the
allow_call_time_pass_reference PHP setting.

Database
Software Development :: Code Generators
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
About: STORE consists of two related parts: a framework for representing
the contents of a relational database as Java objects (similar to but
simpler than Entity EJBs), and a set of tools for automatically creating
Java classes and/or SQL statements from a DB diagram or existing DB
tables.
Changes: A dangerous race condition in the templates used by
DBPeaGenerator and ParseDia has been fixed. Users should upgrade and
re-generate their Pea classes.

Scientific/Engineering :: Mathematics
Software Development :: Libraries
About: The Simple Vector Library (SVL) provides vector and matrix
classes, as well as a number of functions for performing vector
arithmetic with them. Equation-like syntax is supported via class
operators. Both generic (arbitrarily-sized), and fixed-size (2, 3, and 4
element) vectors and matrices are supported. The latter are provided for
the efficient manipulation of vectors or points in 2D or 3D space, and
make heavy use of inlining for frequently-used operations.

Wednesday, December 4th 2002 16:07
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio
About: SWH Plugins are a set of audio plugins for the LADSPA plugin
system.
Changes: This time the broken UID was really changed. A Bode Frequency
Shifter was also added, which is a useful synthesis tool (it shifts the
frequency of the input signal by up to 1KHz-- this is different to a pitch
shifter, which moves the formants proportionally to the fundamental. A
frequency shifter kind of slides all the formants together).

by tamber (http://freshmeat.net/users/tamber/)
Wednesday, December 4th 2002 09:44
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
About: The Tamber project is a componentized n-tier Web site engine that
uses open languages such as XML and JavaScript. Content is stored in
separate XML files, in databases, or other data objects. Business
functions are carried out by JavaScript and ASP. Presentation is
controlled by an XSL transformation, which allows for delivery over
multiple channels such as HTML, WAP, and MHEG. Currently, Tamber can
deliver to HTML and WAP, and contains modules that support e-commerce
shopping carts, secure sign in, data access and conversion services, and
advanced session management.
Changes: Semicolons are parsed from open recordset SQL statements. The
function check_val() now detects '," and &. Tamber's root directory
(usually '/') can be customised via the system registry. There is a new
svr_name system registry item. All response.redirects() have been replaced
with a new jmp_to() function. The mailing list system has been fixed and
tweaked. The cookie tracking system now displays view and click statistics
on tagged pages.

[075] - tnailer 1.1
by William Rhodes (http://freshmeat.net/users/wrhodes/)
Wednesday, December 4th 2002 09:45
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Presentation
About: Tnailer was originally written to automatically pull images from a
SmartMedia card and then create thumbnailed albums arranged in
cronological order, but it will work just fine with any group of images.
It will adjust the scale (physical image size) of any type of image in the
album, and can adjust the quality (compression level) of JPEG and PNG
files. It will work with over 66 other image formats, including GIF, PICT,
TIFF, and even PDF. It has some basic HTML formatting options, and adds
linear navigation to each image's individual page so that browsing forward
and backward through the entire album is easy and intuitive.
Changes: This release has more options for resulting image/HTML output,
cleaned up code, and fixes for some minor bugs.
