copula, taking into account the transition matrix (or survival function)
and sectorial correlation matrix defined by the user.
Changes: This release adds a long-awaited feature: the t-Student copula
generator. Additionally, a severe bug in the gaussian copula generator was
fixed, which changes the output data format and beautifies the risk report.

Fri, Dec 26th 2008 18:43
Communications :: Telephony
Office/Business
Security
About: GNU SIP Witch is a pure SIP-based office telephone call server that
supports generic phone system features like call forwarding, hunt groups
and call distribution, call coverage and ring groups, holding, and call
transfer, as well as offering SIP specific capabilities such as presence
and messaging. It supports secure telephone extensions for making calls
over the Internet, and intercept/decrypt-free peer-to-peer audio and video
extensions. It is not a SIP proxy, a multi-protocol telephone server, or an
IP-PBX, and does not try to emulate Asterisk, FreeSWITCH, or Yate.
Changes: Clever support for external devices that use UUIDs for contact to
authenticate peer servers using the contact UUID and the shared
registration secret. This makes SIP authentication management automatic,
since there is no longer a need to have separate peer registration
credentials for such peers.

About: libxnm is a library for parsing and retrieving data from the XNM
file format. XNM stands for "Xnm is Not a Markup language" in the spirit of
GNU recursive definitions. XNM is a simple recursively defined
serialization syntax that is well suited to be used as a storage format for
any program storing or communicating complex datastructures. In contrast to
the XML standard, XNM was built to be as concise as possible. It is built
around four types: the recursive tables and arrays, and the end nodes
strings and binary chunks.
Changes: This version adds an API call for retrieving a list of keys held
by a table. It also makes retrieving an empty key of a value return the
value itself.

different LilyPond editing applications for KDE 4.
Changes: Detection of malformed textedit URLs and the interaction via
D-Bus with running applications have been improved.

by Leandro Lucarella (http://freshmeat.net/users/llucax/)
Fri, Dec 26th 2008 01:21
Software Development :: Code Generators
Software Development :: Testing
About: mutest is a micro unit testing framework for C (with some C++
support). It is easy to use and has no dependencies. The idea is simple: a
source file is a test suite, and a function is a test case (special
functions can be used for test suite initialization and termination) that
can can have several checks. Checks comes in 2 flavors: one that only
prints an error, and one that terminates the current test case too. A
(normally) automated test program run all the test suites and prints some
stats. It fails (returns non-zero) if any test suite fails.

Fri, Dec 26th 2008 18:42
Utilities
About: UDFclient is a userland implementation of the UDF filesystem as
defined by the OSTA group. It is designed to be a study platform and a
run-up to a full read and write (NetBSD) kernel level implementation. It
provides a user interface not unlike ftp but differs in that it always
fetches or writes files recursively. It supports the basic get, mget, put,
mput, mv, rm, mkdir, cd, lcd, free, pwd, and lls command set.
Changes: This release has been enhanced with ideas and features from the
author's NetBSD kernel implementation, enhancing directory operations and
fixing potential lockups on 512 bytes/sector media. NetBSD hard disk
support has been fixed, as well as a few compilation warnings when compiled
with '-Wextra', revealing some possible bugs. cd_disect has been enhanced
to display some more disc types. Some patches are included to fix possible
buffer errors.
