by mattia (http://freshmeat.net/users/mattia/)
Tue, Nov 1st 2005 06:33
Utilities
About: cpufreqd is meant to be a replacement of the speedstep applet you
can find in Windows. It monitors battery level, CPU usage, AC state, and
running programs and adjusts the frequency governor according to a set of
rules specified in the config file.
Changes: This release fixes a leak in the nvclock plugin. Note that you
still need to patch nvclock, since a problem was found in it. Subsecond
poll_interval was introduced, but an internal lower limit of 0.15 seconds
has been set to avoid trashing the CPU. A SIGSEGV which occurred when
duplicate rules were found was fixed. Configuring the same plugin twice is
avoided, in case two or more sections for the same plugins are present.

[015] - fairly fast packet filter 1.4b
by Willem de Bruijn (http://freshmeat.net/users/wdebruij/)
Tue, Nov 1st 2005 10:44
System :: Networking :: Monitoring
System :: Operating System Kernels :: Linux
About: The fairly fast packet filter (FFPF) is an approach to network
packet processing that adds many new features to existing filtering
solutions like BPF. It is designed for high speed by pushing
computationally intensive tasks to the kernel or even network processors
and by minimising packet copying. By providing both a richer programming
language and explicit extensibility, it is also considerably more
flexible than existing approaches. It provides a complete solution for
network monitoring that caters to all applications available today. Using
its extensibility, the language can even be used as a meta- filter to
"script" together filters from other approaches, such as BPF.
Changes: This release has a new 4-layer API structure, new example
applications, a new GUI toolkit, an extended input parser, full userspace
FFPF support (for debugging, etc.), full IXP2x00 support including control
plane, and much more.

Scientific/Engineering
About: JGraph is a free, mature, and robust Java Graphing framework that
fully complies with Swing design principles. It contains all the graph
visualization and interaction functionality you might expect in a graph
library, including multiple views, layering, zoom, drag and drop, undo,
automatic expanding and collapsing, routing, and layouts. You can create
stunning workflow editors, call graphs, CAD tools, network diagrams,
database visualization tools, and more. It can also be deployed on the
server-side with a large range of image exporting functionality. It is
fully documented and commercially supported.
Changes: The DefaultCellViewFactory is now Serializable, so serializing
the main part of the core should work correctly. Some example code from
JGraph Layout Pro has been moved into the new GraphEdX example; this
includes an XML encoding/decoding example and how to create collapsible
groups of cells. The image creation utility method in JGraph has been
changed to use print instead of paint to draw graphics; this makes certain
server-side operations easier and more efficient. Also, a number of minor
bugs have been fixed.

Tue, Nov 1st 2005 10:44
Communications :: Email :: Filters
About: smf-spamd is a Sendmail filter for SpamAssassin. It aims to be
lightweight, reliable, and simple rather than have a myriad of options. It
only scans the messages less than defined size, has a hosts/networks
whitelist, performs subject tagging if SPAM is detected, adds an
information header, copies SPAM messages to the defined "garbage" mailbox,
rejects SPAM messages at the SMTP DATA stage, and logs all filter
activities to syslog. The code is small (does not exceed 580 lines), fast,
stable, and few resources are required. No temporary files are created.
Changes: Successfully authenticated senders will bypass the filtering.
Cosmetic enhancements were made.

[045] - strongSwan 2.5.6
by Andreas Steffen (http://freshmeat.net/users/asteffen/)
Tue, Nov 1st 2005 14:33
Security
Security :: Cryptography
System :: Networking
About: strongSwan is a complete IPsec and IKEv1 implementation for Linux
2.4 and 2.6 kernels. It interoperates with most other IPsec-based VPN
products. It is a descendant of the discontinued FreeS/WAN project. The
focus of the strongSwan project is on strong authentication mechanisms
using X.509 public key certificates and optional secure storage of private
keys on smartcards through a standardized PKCS#11 interface. A unique
feature is the use of X.509 attribute certificates to implement advanced
access control schemes based on group memberships.
Changes: The "ipsec whack --scencrypt" command now computes RSA encryption
in software using the public key fetched from the smartcard if the PKCS#11
library used (e.g. the OpenSC library) does not implement the C_Encrypt()
function. This feature can be used to protect hard disk encryption keys
with the same PIN used for the VPN. The "scepclient" command now allows
you to define the validity of a self-signed certificate using the --days,
--startdate, and --enddate options. The default validity has been changed
from one year to five years.

application platform based around a Web GUI. It features a business
management system for sales, purchasing, and inventory, an XML-based form
engine (used to input/display data) and an XML-based report engine for
creating new forms and reports, and a built-in form editor tool that runs
in a browser. Its user interface utilizes DHTML to create a near-desktop
application experience from within a Web browser.
Changes: This release adds two often requested features: the ability to
print a packing list in the Invoice section and the ability to print a
form other than the current form. This option allows developers more
options in the print process. This release also fixes the way the double
quote is handled in the database and fixes some minor report engine
display bugs with the table output widget.

structure is navigated and edited in the left pane of the window, while
various views of the child data are shown and editable in the right pane.
The data is stored in XML text files. TreeLine is based on the PyQt
library.
Changes: A new option controls the number of files in the recently used
list. Problems with the display of an edit box when renaming new nodes in
a long tree were fixed. Issues with unusual operating system language
settings were also fixed.

Software Development :: Compilers
Software Development :: Debuggers
About: Ultimate++ is a cross-platform C++ rapid application development
suite. It includes set of libraries (for things like GUI and SQL) and an
integrated development environment. Rapid development is achieved by smart
and aggressive use of C++ rather than through fancy code generators. In
this respect, U++ competes with popular scripting languages while
preserving C/C++ runtime characteristics. Its integrated development
environment, TheIDE, introduces modular conception to C++ programming, and
can be used to develop non-U++ applications.
Changes: XML support, Linux/AMD64 support, X11 fixes, and documentation
were added. Sqlite is now included as part of U++. In TheIDE, file tabs
were redesigned, a scripting language and calculator were added, the GUI
