have been shut down.
Changes: A user interface to simplify configuration has been added.
Miscellaneous Autopoweroff events are now reported in syslog for tracking
purposes. The GNOME dependency has been removed for servers running in
text mode only.

a statistical check against lists of "good" and "bad" words, and returns a
status code indicating whether or not the message is spam. Bogofilter is
designed with fast algorithms (including Berkeley DB system), coded
directly in C, and tuned for speed, so it can be used for production by
sites that process a lot of mail.

domino is a board game where two or four people can play, one player vs.
other, or two partners vs. other two. The player who runs out of
dominoes wins. DMN tries to be modular, so that everything is a module
(player input, display output, sound output, configuration, and game
options).
Changes: This release has been converted to C++. The configuration file
has been converted to XML. Display::null has been added to display without
output. Sound::alsa has been added. Player::qt saves the last window
position and restores it.

[034] - Kernel Mode Linux 2.6.0-mm1_001 (For Linux 2.6-mm)
by Toshiyuki Maeda (http://freshmeat.net/users/tosh/)
Friday, December 26th 2003 09:09
System :: Operating System Kernels
System :: Operating System Kernels :: Linux
About: Kernel Mode Linux is a technology which enables the execution of
user programs in a kernel mode. In Kernel Mode Linux, user programs can
access kernel address space directly. Unlike kernel modules, user programs
are executed as ordinary processes (except for their privilege level), so
scheduling and paging are performed as usual. Although it seems dangerous,
the safety of the kernel can be ensured through such methods as static
type checking, software fault isolation, and so forth.
Changes: This release has been merged with the 2.6.0-mm1 Linux kernel.

[036] - Linux-VServer 1.3.1 (Development)
by Herbert Pötzl (http://freshmeat.net/users/bertl/)
Friday, December 26th 2003 11:48
Security
System :: Operating System Kernels :: Linux
About: Linux-VServer allows you to create virtual private servers and
security contexts which operate like a normal Linux server, but allow many
independent servers to be run simultaneously in one box at full speed. All
services, such as ssh, mail, Web, and databases, can be started on such a
VPS, without modification, just like on any real server. Each virtual
server has its own user account database and root password and doesn't
interfere with other virtual servers.
Changes: The ip_info struct was adapted to match vx_info, and allocation
and deallocation work similarly. Strict locking for vx_info and a better
solution for dynamic context allocation. Heavy code cleanup, improved
compatibility layer, and the re-introduction of vx_id.

Scientific/Engineering :: Medical Science Apps.
About: nut is nutrition software to record what you eat and analyze your
meals for nutrient composition. The database included is the USDA Nutrient
Database for Standard Reference, Release 16, which contains 6,661 foods
and 125 nutrients. This database contains values for vitamins, minerals,
fats, calories, protein, carbohydrates, fiber, etc., and includes the
essential polyunsaturated fats, Omega-3 and Omega-6. Nutrient levels are
expressed as a percentage of the Daily Value, the familiar standard of
food labeling in the United States, but also can be fully customized.
Recipes can be added, and graphs drawn. The program is completely
menu-driven and there are no commands to learn.
Changes: The program is now capable of understanding food names in simple
English, such as "fried chicken" and "mashed potatoes." This is
accomplished by including the list of abbreviations the USDA uses and by
successively searching for each tokenized term, whatever the order in the
USDA name.

Security
System :: Monitoring
About: Process Change Detection System is a script to monitor changes in
processes--not to monitor if your Web server is still running, but to see
if there are new programs running. When debugging a honeypot logging, you
often see that there's an extra inetd running, to open up a backdoor port.
Or, less dramatically, people login to a system and "forget" to logout.
Changes: This release removes the first undefined value in the baselist
and adds debugging options.

[054] - Reverse Trace Garbage Collector for C++ 0.2
by Steve Favor (http://freshmeat.net/users/stevefavor/)
Friday, December 26th 2003 06:55
Software Development :: Libraries
About: The Reverse Trace Garbage Collector for C++ is a memory manager for
C++ that automatically reclaims dynamically allocated objects that are no
longer in use. The algorithm is precise and only scans memory blocks when
root references are broken (as opposed to scanning the whole stack and
heap for unreferenenced blocks). It also reclaims memory incrementally
with separate threads so that applications are not paused when it is
active.
Changes: This release adds major performance enhancements. Overhead is now
approximately double the time for manual heap management. Weak references
and a few bugs have been fixed.

Changes: The Familiar package is now built with "-march=armv4
-mtune=xscale". The sunrise/sunset calculation has been integrated. This
information is only used for display (trip information). A regression
occurring when merging street ranges in buildmap has been fixed. A problem
with identifying merged ranges through the Find/Address.. command has been
more or less corrected. The stacking order for street signs, trip
information, and waypoints has been cleaned. First steps have been taken
toward a major cleanup of the declutter logic.

About: Speech Dispatcher is a device independent layer for speech
synthesis, developed with the goal of making the usage of speech synthesis
easier for application programmers. It takes care of most of the tasks
necessary to solve in speech-enabled applications. What a very high level
GUI library is to graphics, Speech Dispatcher is to speech synthesis. The
architecture is based on a proven client/server model. The basic means of
client communication is through a TCP connection using the Speech
Synthesis Independent Protocol (SSIP), or through an interface library.
Changes: Caching of characters, keys, and sound icons in the Festival
output modules now brings much quicker responses for these types of
events. The documentation has been improved. Definition of the SSIP
protocol and its aims is now in a separated document. Necessary recoding
in the Festival output module is now received from Festival itself. This
fixes a problem with other languages with different charsets.
