About: uriparser is a strictly RFC 3986 compliant URI parsing library. It is cross-platform, fast, and supports Unicode. Changes: This release mainly adds dissection and composition of query strings. Previously, query strings were a block of text and nothing more. Now you can use them as key/value pairs, as application/x-www-form-urlencoded data. This release is both source- and binary-compatible.
About: ApeSmit is a very simple Python module to create XML sitemaps as defined at sitemaps.org. It doesn’t contain a Web spider or similar software; it just writes the data you provide to a file using the proper syntax.
About: AvantSlash allows you to read Slashdot on a Windows Mobile, Blackberry, Smartphone, or Palm based device (either online using a Web browser or offline using an application such as AvantGo), or from an older WAP enabled mobile phone. It provides you with a cleaner version of the content, and can even clean up the linked articles for easier reading on your device. Changes: A bug was fixed which meant that users were directed to a non-working Google page when viewing on a basic WML only enabled browser. The code was also updated to support the HTML changes made by Slashdot to the comments page.
About: JMP3Player is a lightweight MP3 player written in Java. It uses the NativeFmod library. It supports MP3, WAV, and Ogg file formats and playlist, seek, and sound modes. Changes: This release has Look & Feel and Theme support. Language (English/Turkish) preferences have been added. You can write your own language files.
About: PM Report is a PHP/MySQL report generator. It creates customizable reports and is very simple to setup and use. You can select which database, table, and individual fields to use on your report. You can also select the order in which the fields should appear on the report, the field you would like to group by, the field you would like to sort by, and whether or not you would like a total for each column. Once the report has been generated, you can highlight individual rows and export the results to CSV. Changes: This release adds the ability to total rows of data instead of just columns. It also has better support for extremely long fields.
About: Zile is a small, fast, and powerful Emacs clone. It is useful for small footprint installations (e.g. on floppy disk) or quick editing sessions. Changes: This release changes the code to meet GNU coding standards. It's not recommended for users because there are no (intended) functional changes whatsoever, and it's possible that new bugs have been introduced.
About: The ggivnc application is a VNC client that uses GGI for input and output. It supports many encodings (ZRLE, Tight, Hextile, Zlib, ZlibHex, RRE, CopyRect, LastRect, DesktopSize, CoRRE, gii, and the required Raw encoding). Changes: This release adds support for copy-paste operations, and for the DesktopName and the WMVi pseudo-encodings. It also adds support for reverse connections, and fixes a couple of bugs.
About: EmForge is a J2EE-based integrated solution for managing a software development process. It is designed to provide a solution for software development teams that is both easy to use and flexible. It features integration of wiki-based documentation, workflow-based task management, and subversion-based version control. It is easy to integrate with other systems and technologies. It allows administrators and managers to flexibly set up different kinds of processes for different projects. Changes: Several bugs reported by users were fixed. A special version for GlassFish is now available.
About: PCGen is a Java (1.5+) -based character generator aimed at supporting OGL role playing games like those based upon the SRD, RSRD, and MSRD (such as Dungeons and Dragons). It is highly configurable by the users, allowing the Game Master to add or remove races, classes, feats, etc., and to implement house rules such as differing class or race restrictions. Level advancement is also supported, with configurable progressions of feats, skills and ability score bonuses. For "at the table" support, PCGen offers a set of GM plugins. Further options allow the user to produce a customized character sheet, which can then be viewed in, or printed from, the user's WWW browser. It can also produce a "party" sheet with the information needed by the GM.
About: Metaclip is a distributed clipboard for the X Window system, allowing the contents of the X selection (clipboard) to be shared among several users. It uses an ordinary HTTP server to keep the clipboard's contents, so it can be easily used even if the clients have dynamically assigned addresses.
About: JCPP is a complete, compliant, standalone, pure Java implementation of the C preprocessor. It is intended to be of use to people writing C-style compilers in Java using tools like sablecc, antlr, JLex, CUP, and so forth. It has been used to successfully preprocess much of the source code of the GNU C library. The stated license is GPL, but additional license terms are freely available from the author. Changes: This release has support for pragmas, and passes them to user code. It has improved error reporting, better preservation of whitespace for #line markers, and allows pushing the source stack using a public API.
About: Online Chess Club is a PHP chess game. It allows you to play any number of games simultaneously against your friends online using only a Web browser, provided you own some PHP-ready Web space. It recognizes checkmate, stalemate, and allows you to draw a game. In addition, finished games may either be archived or deleted. Changes: This release features some minor enhancements in the GUI (rearranged buttons and the addition of confirmation dialogs for draw offers to prevent accidental actions) and a bugfix in stalemate detection.
About: nut is nutrition software to record what you eat and analyze your meals for nutrient composition. The database included is the latest USDA Nutrient Database for Standard Reference. 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. Foods can be added from recipes or food labels, and nutrient intake can be graphed. The program is completely menu-driven and there are no commands to learn. Changes: The "Record Meals" and "Analyze Meals" analyses now each separately remember how many meals were last analyzed, so that a user could, for example, always look at a single meal on the "Record Meals" analysis, and always look at a couple of weeks of meals on "Analyze Meals", but not have to specify how many meals each time.
About: This package contains a heterogeneous set of I2C tools for Linux: a bus probing tool, a chip dumper, register-level access helpers, EEPROM decoding scripts, and more. Changes: A helper script for use with the i2c-stub kernel driver was added. i2cdump can now be passed a range of registers to read from. decode-dimms was extended to fully decode DDR2 SDRAM timings.
About: Test-Run is an improved test harness for scripts that emit TAP (Test Anything Protocol). It was forked from Test::Harness, and it uses TAP::Parser. It is used to analyze the output of the scripts and present it to the user in a summarized form. Test-Run features separation of the test-running backend and the command line frontend, a "runprove" utility for running tests from the command line, a plugin-system, and colors for the summary line. Changes: The code was fully converted to a BSD-style-licence, and in the process heavily refactored. The Test::Run::Plugin::TrimDisplayedFilenames plugin has been added to remove components of extremely long paths. This release has full documentation coverage. Some API compatibility was broken.
About: Vortex Library is a BEEP Core protocol implementation, following the standard defined in RFC 3080 and RFC 3081. It has a clean and easy-to-use API that allows you to write new application protocols very quickly. Vortex Library has been developed within the Af-Arch project, and it is being used at the data transport layer. However, Vortex Library can be used independently of Af-Arch. Changes: This release fixes bugs and updates the regression test to ensure proper functionality. DTD handling has been upgraded to make them available inlined into the source code using the axl-knife tool.
About: Daikon is an implementation of dynamic detection of likely invariants. An invariant is a property (such as "x=2*y+5" or "this.next.prev = this" or "myarray is sorted by <") that holds at a certain point or points in a program. Invariants are often seen in assert statements, documentation, and formal specifications. Invariants can be useful in program understanding and a host of other applications. Daikon runs a program, observes the values that the program computes, and then reports properties that were true over the observed executions. It can detect properties in Java, C, C++, Perl, and IOA programs, in spreadsheet files, and in other data sources. Changes: This release was enhanced to better support program points that are basic blocks. Some minor enhancements and bugfixes were made, and the documentation was improved.
About: Ayam is a free 3D modelling environment for the RenderMan interface. It features good RIB export, CSG (all RenderMan primitives supported), and NURBS modelling. Features instancing, arbitrary number of modeling views, object clipboard, independent property clipboard, n-level undo, console, and Tree-View with Drag-and-Drop support. Changes: This release adds support for swung surfaces and offset curves. In addition, there is now a single window GUI mode.
About: Zmanda Recovery Manager (ZRM) for MySQL simplifies life of a database administrator who needs an easy to use yet flexible and robust backup and recovery solution for MySQL server. With ZRM for MySQL, you can schedule full and incremental logical or raw backups of your local or remote MySQL database, perform a backup that is the best match for your storage engine and your MySQL configuration, get encrypted and compressed backups, get email notification about the status of your backups (including RSS feeds), monitor and get backup reports, and recover a database easily to any point in time or to any particular transaction. Changes: This release has support for Solaris and for backups using ZFS snapshots (in addition to LVM snapshots).
About: PHPkrm is a Web-based GNUPG keyring manager. It allows anonymous visitors to add their own public keys and download all keyrings, and allows synchronization with external servers to refresh the keys and/or upload the keys. Changes: This release has optional reCAPTCHA support for protecting email message and/or key submission. The default CSS style and its class definition in XHTML have been improved. The characters - and _ may be used in keyring names.
About: SchilliX is an OpenSolaris-based live CD and distribution that is intended to help people discover OpenSolaris. When installed on a hard drive, it also allows developers to develop and compile code in a pure OpenSolaris environment. SchilliX tries to be as Sun Solaris compatible as possible and to be the optimum development platform for Solaris and OpenSolaris. Changes: Updated to use OpenSolaris Nevada Build 86. A new ipk wireless driver for the intel PRO/Wireless 4965AGN interface. The low RAM boot option is now able to auto-mount the boot CD even if the boot CD is connected via USB or SATA. Several dozen device aliases have been added to allow more recent PCI* hardware to be recognized.
About: libjoy is a fully documented development library to access joysticks under Linux that features an easy interface. It also contains a very powerful console tool for scripting. You can access joysticks with 5 tiny lines of code.
About: Rsyslog is an enhanced multi-threaded syslogd. Among other features, it offers support for on-demand disk buffering, reliable syslog over TCP, writing to databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and many more), fully configurable output formats (including high-precision timestamps), the ability to filter on any part of the syslog message, on-the-wire message compression, and the ability to convert text files to syslog. It is a drop-in replacement for stock syslogd and able to work with the same configuration file syntax. Changes: This version offers almost all features of the current development version to those in need of a stable branch. Among others, this includes support for multiple database backends, queued and offline syslog processing, SNMP, and text file support. It is a big step forward compared to the v2 stable branch. Users are advised to check the compatibility notes before updating.
About: Jhead is a command line driven utility for extracting digital camera settings from the Exif format files used by many digital cameras. It handles the various confusing ways these can be expressed, and displays them as F-stop, shutter speed, etc. It is also able to reduce the size of digital camera JPEGs without loss of information, by deleting integral thumbnails that digital cameras put into the Exif header. If you need to add Exif support to a program, this is a simple program to cut and paste from. Many projects, including PHP, have reused code from this utility. Changes: The program was made aware of XMP data to not delete such sections. IPTC handling was slightly improved. The date encoding in EXIF header creation was changed to make it more compatible.
About: KnowledgeTree is a powerful Web-based document management system built on the popular LAMP (Apache/MySQL/PHP) stack. It is a leading PHP-based commercial document management software project. KnowledgeTree is used by Fortune 500 companies, community organizations, local and state governments, and educational and scientific institutions around the world. Changes: This release mainly addresses installation issues in the 3.5.x series. A few high priority "teething problem" fixes have also been included that effect the background indexing, search, and scheduler areas.
