by Toni (http://freshmeat.net/users/arosar2002/)
Tue, Dec 2nd 2008 22:09
Office/Business :: Scheduling
About: Agenda XML is a simple project time tracker for Gnome and Kde. It
places itself in the notification bar and keeps data in a readable XML file
in the user's home directory.
Changes: This release adds profiles, profile management from the tray
menu, a new activity log file, and a new Current Project Graph option. Icon
tray tooltip text now includes the profile name. A bug that crashed the app
when changing the selected project from the icon tray menu has been fixed.
The input box has been changed to a custom form (due to a bug in Gambas, it
looked ugly).

Information Management
About: AgileWiki is an SDK for assembling software systems which are
fluid, easily configured and can be reorganized on-the-fly to meet ever
changing requirements. It includes a COW-based database, the Rolonics
programming paradigm, and semantic inferencing.
Changes: Now addKeyword, removeKeyword, keywordSearch, and relationSearch
commands were added. Deleting a relation rolon now removes all of its uses.
INodes subordinate to an element are now properly freed when the element is
removed.

[004] - Asymptote 1.55
by John Bowman (http://freshmeat.net/users/jcbowman/)
Tue, Dec 2nd 2008 10:38
Education
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Editors :: Vector-Based
Scientific/Engineering
About: Asymptote is a powerful descriptive vector graphics language for
technical drawing, inspired by MetaPost but with an improved C++-like
syntax. It provides for figures the same high-quality level of typesetting
that LaTeX does for scientific text. Asymptote is a programming language as
opposed to just a graphics program. It can exploit the best features of
script (command-driven) and graphical user interface (GUI) methods.
High-level graphics commands are implemented in the language itself,
allowing them to be easily tailored to specific applications.
Changes: A serious bug in drawing paths of length 0 that broke the
dot(pair) routine was fixed. Problems in guide to path and path to guide
conversions were fixed. A triple invert(pair) routine was added for
inverting a pair z onto the projection plane. The obsolete field of view
factor was removed.

[007] - Bitvector Library 1.0.0
by Tim Gurney (http://freshmeat.net/users/offswn/)
Tue, Dec 2nd 2008 17:52
Software Development :: Libraries
About: Bitvector is a C library that allows you to use strings rather than
ints for internal flags. On many platforms, ints are limited to 32 bits and
are thus limited to 32 flags available for a given flag variable. Bitvector
uses a resizing char array for flags, allowing much greater flexibility for
flag management.

Tue, Dec 2nd 2008 15:20
Multimedia :: Video
About: clive is a command line utility for extracting videos from Youtube
and other video sharing Web sites. It was originally written to bypass the
Adobe Flash requirement needed to view the hosted videos. It is
non-interactive, meaning it can work in the background while the user is
not logged on. This allows the user to start an extraction and disconnect
from the system, letting clive finish the work.

Tue, Dec 2nd 2008 15:17
About: Coadunation is a Cloud OS. It has been designed to merge local,
Internet, and intranet content into a single seamless environment, all
accessible through a simple-to-use Web desktop. It comes standard with a
news feed enabled desktop, a distributable core, a DNS server, a mail
server, mail clients, a database, a wiki, a Hudson build server, PHP
application support, an application server, and more.
Changes: This version changes the project from a Web OS into a Cloud OS.
This has been done through the incorporation of a desktop news feed system
that aggregates feeds from local events, intranet events, and Internet
events. This enables the desktop to always be related to what is happening
within the current environment and to be a useful piece of real estate.

and yet lightweight: the binary is 46k as reported by size(1) on Linux
i386. It has support for duplicate address detection, IPv4LL, carrier
detection, and a merged resolv.conf and ntp.conf for which other DHCP
clients require third party tools.
Changes: This release fixes the flapping interface link clearing timer.
This release warns correctly if there is not a monotonic clock. Host routes
are now correctly added and removed on BSD systems. Subnet routes with
metrics have a source address on Linux systems.

[017] - dwdiff 1.5
by gphalkes (http://freshmeat.net/users/gphalkes/)
Tue, Dec 2nd 2008 15:22
Text Processing
About: dwdiff is a front-end for the diff program that operates at the
word level instead of the line level. It is different from wdiff in that
it allows the user to specify what should be considered whitespace, and in
that it takes an optional list of characters that should be considered
delimiters. Delimiters are single characters that are treated as if they
are words, even when there is no whitespace separating them from preceding
words or delimiters. dwdiff is mostly commandline compatible with wdiff.
The default output from dwdiff is the new text, with the deleted and
inserted parts annotated with markers. Command line options are available
to change both what is printed and the markers.
Changes: The difference algorithm has been improved such that it gives
better results for large changes with frequently occurring words.

developing good rules, and less time on the proper implementation of those
rules. These rules will be executed by the preferred kernel interface, such
as ipchains and iptables, and in one pass. Firewall rules can also be split
into different files and loaded at will.
Changes: This release enables policy-only domains. It doesn't list custom
chains in --flush --fast mode.

Tue, Dec 2nd 2008 10:31
System :: Hardware
System :: Networking
System :: Networking :: Firewalls
About: Gargoyle is an interface for small, widely available routers such
as the Linksys WRT54G series and the La Fonera. It provides functionality
above and beyond what the default software provides including sophisticated
dynamic DNS, quality of service, and bandwidth monitoring tools. The
primary goal is to provide a polished interface for these advanced tools
that is at least as easy to configure as any existing firmware. This
project is based on top of OpenWrt, but unlike other Web interfaces for
OpenWrt it places a strong focus an usability and is meant for average
users, not just power users.
Changes: Improvements include the addition of an access restriction
section to allow filtering of network resources by IP, port, protocol,
and/or Web page URL. A bandwidth quotas section has also been added, which
allows the setting of fixed limits for upload/download bandwidth of users
on the network. Finally, the QoS implementation has been improved
dramatically to better handle layer 7 matching. Multiple minor bugs have
also been fixed.

distributed and dynamic, with no trusted parties.
Changes: This release introduces new components, drops some old ones (like
the old TCP transport), and has been optimized to perform better. The BOB
(Basic Open Bridge) protocol is introduced, for use by client applications
that cannot import I2CP libraries directly. This deprecates the old SAM
protocol that was previously used in such cases. Improved code should be
better at preventing congestion.

Software Development :: Compilers
Software Development :: Libraries
About: JALv2 is a rewrite of Wouter van Ooijen's Just Another Language. It
adds more variable types, built-in multiply and divide, CASE statements for
flow control, and co-operative multi-tasking. An index is allowed in FOR
loops, and variables are automatically placed on any page.
Changes: This release added return statements from inline functions. The
way parameters and arrays are handled was fixed. Compiler directives ("if
cexpr...'') no longer open a "block", allowing conditional compiling and
library including. The documentation about target clocks was fixed. A
suffix was added to display the version (2.4i).

[034] - JChart2D 3.1.0
by Achim Westermann (http://freshmeat.net/users/achimwestermann/)
Tue, Dec 2nd 2008 10:32
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Presentation
Scientific/Engineering :: Visualization
Software Development :: Libraries
About: JChart2D is a Swing widget for precise runtime visualization of
numerical tuples in an x-y plot. It is easy to use and is designed for
runtime display. Unlike other charting tools that cover all kinds of views
(pie, bar, etc.), it just creates precise x-y plots. It is thread-safe:
many different threads in an application may each add data to plot. A
single chart may contain multiple different traces. It also features
automatic scaling, choice of unit, viewports (zooming), output to images
(png, jpeg), logarithmic axis, and custom rendering of datapoints (lines,
dots, discs, filled polygons).
Changes: Minor bugs related to the user interface have been fixed. New
features have been added: single data points may be highlighted, traces may
be tracked with a tool tip, charts may be saved to EPS files, and charts
may be printed via a print dialog.

[035] - KchmViewer 4.0
by Georgy Yunaev (http://freshmeat.net/users/gyunaev/)
Tue, Dec 2nd 2008 10:29
Office/Business
Utilities
About: kchmviewer is a CHM (Winhelp) files viewer written in Qt/ KDE. It
can be build as a stand-alone Qt-based application or a KDE application.
The main point is compatibility with non-English CHM files, including most
international character sets. It has the features set of standard viewer:
search (including non-English CHMs), bookmarking, font size changing,
index/content browsing, codepage support, and more.
Changes: This release implemented binary TOC and index tables, which
speeds up loading of files significantly. A 'waiting' cursor is now
displayed while loading the CHM table of contents or index. QTextBrowser
was fixed by providing a workaround for "empty" books. More compatibility
fixes were made for KDE 4.1. D-BUS support was added for Qt and KDE builds.
The application can now be controlled remotely from other applications or
scripts. Translations are restored.

by Wolfgang Friebel (http://freshmeat.net/users/friebel/)
Tue, Dec 2nd 2008 10:35
Text Processing
About: lesspipe.sh is an input filter for the pager less as described in
less's man page. The script runs under a ksh-compatible shell (ksh, bash,
zsh) and allows you to use less to view files with binary content,
compressed files, archives, and files contained in archives. Viewing files
by accessing a device file is implemented to some extent (DOS filesystems
and tar files). It supports many formats (both as plain and compressed
files using compress, gzip, bzip2, or zip). Syntax highlighting for many
languages is available through a helper script, "code2color".
Changes: A major restructuring of the lesspipe code took place. Support
for even more file types has been added (e.g. jar and lzip). The test suite
was enhanced, several bugs were fixed, and the code was cleaned up. The
documentation has been updated.

About: Lzip is a lossless data compressor based on the LZMA algorithm,
with very safe integrity checking and a user interface almost identical to
the one of bzip2. Lzip decompresses almost as fast as gzip and compresses
better than bzip2, which makes it well suited for software distribution.
Changes: Lzgrep, a grep wrapper for gzip, bzip2, and lzip compressed
files, has been added to the distribution.

Multimedia :: Graphics :: 3D Rendering
Scientific/Engineering :: Visualization
About: The Mesh Viewer is an easy-to-use, lightweight application for
displaying three dimensional models (triangular meshes) from a variety of
file formats. It uses OpenGL to render the models. Triangular meshes can be
displayed texture mapped (with optional bilinear filtering), solid, or as a

rotated, translated, and scaled (all done with the mouse). The model is
lighted by multiple light sources. Viewpoints can be saved.
Changes: This release features support for new 3D file formats, qmake
support, several minor enhancements (bounding box, mouse wheel support,
etc.), and some bugfixes.

About: Nagios (formerly Netsaint) is a daemon written in C that is
designed to monitor networked hosts and services. It has the ability to
notify contacts (via email, pager or other methods) when problems arise and
are resolved. Host and service checks are performed by external "plugins",
making it easy to write custom checks in your language of choice. Several
CGIs are included in order to allow you to view the current and historical
status via a Web browser, and a WAP interface is also provided to allow you
to acknowlege problems and disable notifications from an internet-ready
cellphone.
Changes: Security fixes related to CGI submission of external commands and
processing of adaptive data commands. x509 certificate authentication
support and wildcard host matching in CGIs were added. Minor improvements
were made to the RPM spec file, out-of-disk-space error handling, and
system command timeout handling.

[050] - Shed Skin 0.0.30
by srepmub (http://freshmeat.net/users/srepmub/)
Tue, Dec 2nd 2008 21:56
Software Development :: Compilers
About: Shed Skin is an experimental (restricted-)Python-to-C++ compiler.
It accepts pure but implicitly statically typed Python programs and
generates optimized C++ code. The result can be further compiled to
stand-alone programs or extension modules. For a set of 16 non-trivial test
programs, measurements show a typical speedup of 2-40 over Psyco, about 10
on average, and 2-220 over CPython, about 35 on average. Not all Python
features are supported, and only a subset of about 17 library modules, such
as re and random.
Changes: User-defined class support in extension modules. Very fast set
implementation (FFAO). Complex number support. Many string formatting
improvements. None maps to NULL instead of 0, and prints as 'None'.
re.match_object.group accepts multiple arguments. Casting improvements.
Inheritance from builtin exceptions other than Exception. Hashing None
should work now. An important type inference fix, and many other bugfixes.

[051] - SimCList 1.4
by Mij (http://freshmeat.net/users/mijio/)
Tue, Dec 2nd 2008 22:05
Software Development :: Libraries
About: SimCList is a high quality C library (that is C++ embeddable) for
handling lists. It exploits several advanced techniques for improving
performance, including freelists, sentinels, automatic sort algorithm
selection, sort randomization, mid pointer, and optional multithreading.
The API is simple but powerful, makes elegant and consistent use of
information hiding, abstracts the actual data type to store, and is fairly
complete. The library itself makes a good compromise between performance in
terms of time and space, and is well documented.
Changes: There are some interface changes. _restore*() and _dump*()
functions now write the length in arguments. list_seek() no longer returns
a constant reference. Decorate with "restrict" qualifiers => now requires
C99 support from the compiler. There are minor improvements in the
documentation.

About: TkCVS is a cross-platform, Tcl/Tk-based GUI for the CVS and
Subversion configuration management systems. It displays the status of the
files in the current working directory, and provides buttons and menus to
execute CVS, Subversion, or RCS commands on the selected files. The Log
Browser displays a branch diagram of the revision history. The Module
Browser extends CVS with facilities for a user-friendly listing of modules
in the repository. TkDiff is included for browsing and merging your
changes.
Changes: The Branch Browser can now draw merge arrows for merges tracked
by Subversion 1.5's mergeinfo property and CVSNT's mergepoint feature. The
work-around of using tags is no longer necessary if your Subversion or
CVSNT server and client support their own merge tracking. The Branch
Browser has a new search ability, so you can highlight a revision on the
diagram by its version, date, tag, or author. If your SVN repository has a
structure that's functionally similar to trunk, branches, and tags but with
different names, you can tell TkCVS about it by setting variables.

package collections at once. It currently supports Arch Linux (and AUR),
Debian, Fedora, Gentoo, openSUSE, Slackware (and linuxpackages.net), Source
Mage Linux, Ubuntu, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Fink, and MacPorts
repositories. whohas was designed to help package maintainers find ebuilds,
pkgbuilds, and similar package definitions from other distributions to
learn from. However, it can also be used by normal users who want to know
which distribution provides certain packages, and which version of a given
package is in use in each distribution or in each release of a
distribution.
Changes: Gentoo and Fedora were added (again). For Debian, the "testing"
repository was enabled in addition to "stable". Performance improvements
were made, and wget is no longer depended upon. On Mac OS X, Whohas.app now
works without having whohas in your $PATH - the whohas executable is
bundled in the app.

Multimedia :: Graphics :: Presentation
Text Processing :: General
About: WP Clipart is an attempt to make a useful clip art package of
public domain images for use in word processors. It includes an optional
cross-platform viewer/editor written with Python/GTK. The collection
contains non-transparent PNG images, scaled down images, mid-tones expanded

graphics, but also has business application (credit cards, promo graphics)
and educational uses (pictures of all US presidents, all country flags
alphabetically listed, all US states, historical figures, and a sign
language alphabet).
Changes: Due to collection size, the program's download is being split
into sections. The viewer/editor script (or executable for Windows) will
accompany each clip art category. The first category is "holiday"; others
will follow until all 48 clip art sections are available for download. This
version also includes added clip art, updated program internal
documentation, and a minor bugfix to eliminate a possible display warning
on rapid image changes.

of existing ISO images, and it writes the session results to optical media
or to filesystem objects. This is the standalone version that incorporates
the libraries of libburnia-project.org and thus depends only on Linux 2.4
(or later), libc, and libpthread. No separate mkisofs and no CD/DVD burn
program are needed.
Changes: xorriso now is ready for exotic character sets, for legacy
FreeBSD systems that expect an outdated Rock Ridge signature, and for
producing ISO images with MBR that boot from hard disks or USB sticks.
Three minor bugs were fixed.

Multimedia :: Video
Multimedia :: Video :: Conversion
About: Xvid (formerly XviD) is an open source MPEG-4 video codec,
implementing MPEG-4 Simple Profile, Advanced Simple Profile, and Advanced
Video Coding standards. It is written in C with assembler optimizations for
quality and speed (including MMX, SSE, and 3Dnow! code for i386 and AltiVec
for PowerPC), and is especially optimized towards offline, multi-pass
compression for storage and archival purposes.
Changes: AMD64/EM64T 64-bit support was completed. Multi-threaded encoding
support was introduced. SSE3/SSE4 optimizations were made. Faster and more
precise MPEG intra quantization was enabled. A bug in packed pixel format
colorspace conversion was fixed. A no-exec stack security patch was
applied. A fix for bad resync marker length was made. Decoder robustness
was improved for broken streams containing B-frames. A fix for potential
out-of-bound access to MV bits table was made. An SSIM quality-metric
plugin was added.
