[001] - /etc/net Configurator 0.0.5
by Pilot (http://freshmeat.net/users/infrastation/)
Thu, Aug 4th 2005 07:38
System :: Boot :: Init
System :: Networking
System :: Systems Administration
About: /etc/net represents a new approach to Linux network configuration
tasks. Inspired by the limitations of traditional configuration
subsystems, /etc/net provides builtin support for configuration profiles,
interface name management, removable device support, full iproute2 command
set support, interface dependency resolution, and a QoS configuration
framework. /etc/net provides support for the following interface types:
Ethernet, WiFi (WEP), IPv6/IPv6 tunnels, PSK IPSec tunnels, VLAN, PLIP,
Ethernet bonding and bridging, traffic equalizer, Pent@NET, usbnet, and
PPP. Due to its modular design, support for new interface types can be
added without overall design changes.
Changes: This release reflects changes introduced by the upcoming /etc/net
Scripts branch 0.7.10.

by napi (http://freshmeat.net/users/napi/)
Thu, Aug 4th 2005 22:33
Software Development :: Compilers
About: Axiomatic Multi-Platform C (AMPC) is a C IDE that generates Java
bytecode. It supports a very large subset of ANSI C (1989). It can be used
to develop new applications using C as well as port existing applications
written in C to run on JVM enabled devices. A JNI (JVM Native Interface)
feature is available for calling native C or C++ functions. Also, many
Java methods can be called from AMPC. The asm() directive can be used to
embed Jasmin assembly code within C source code.
Changes: A bug regarding an array reference whose name is nested in
parentheses was fixed. An example of this is "(A)[1] = 2;".

Education
Security
System :: Systems Administration
About: Bastille Linux aims to be the most comprehensive, flexible, and
educational Security Hardening Program for Red Hat (Fedora Core,
Enterprise Linux, and original Red Hat), SuSE, Gentoo, Mandrake, and
Debian Linux, as well as HP-UX and Mac OS X. Virtually every task it
performs is optional, providing immense flexibility. It educates the
installing admin regarding the topic at hand before asking any question.
The interactive nature allows the program to be more thorough when
securing, while the educational component produces an admin who is less
likely to compromise the increased security.
Changes: This release added support for Fedora Core 4 and Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 4. mDNSResponder, Bluetooth, ISDN, and HPOJ questions
were added.

About: bibivu smilies is a class that can be used to manage different
packages of emoticon images. It currently supports the emoticon packages
of phpBB, Yahoo! messenger, and Gaim. It can look into a given folder

[006] - ccbuild 1.1.0
by A. Bram Neijt (http://freshmeat.net/users/bmm/)
Thu, Aug 4th 2005 22:24
Software Development :: Build Tools
About: ccbuild is like a dynamic Makefile. ccbuild finds all programs in
the current directory (containing "int main") and builds them. For this,
it reads the C++ sources and looks at all local and global includes. All
C++ files surrounding local includes are considered objects for the main
program. The global includes lead to extra compiler arguments using a
configuration file. ccbuild splits these arguments for compilation and
linking, keeping the linking arguments back for later use. It should allow
development without any scripting and only simple reusable configuration.
Deployment and distribution should still be done with other tools. It can
create simple Makefiles, A-A-P files, and graph dependencies using DOT
(graphviz) graphs.
Changes: The MD5 sum system has been fixed on various fronts, making it
usable as an extra option at last. The dot, check, and aap commands have
been extended. The aap script now contains a list of used headers,
defines, libraries, and includes, allowing for a gtkmm application to be
built with the generated aap script.

Changes: A Gatewaying sftp/SSH server for FTP or HTTP clients is now
supported.

About: jsgal is a dynamic Web-based gallery. However, rather than
generating the gallery pages on a server using scripts, it is implemented
in Javascript and DHTML and generates the pages in the client's browser.

galleries. This allows you to host dynamic galleries on servers without
scripting support, or on local filesystems (e.g. CD-ROMs).
Changes: Support for zooming images and thumbs was added. Automatic image
number in image title was added.

Security :: Cryptography
About: Novosec Bouncy Castle Extensions provides some extensions to the

together with some established OCSP responders. Though it breaks
compatibility with its own RFC-compliant OCSP responder, these changes

[040] - PyGogear 5.8.4
by pierlooqup (http://freshmeat.net/users/pierlooqup/)
Thu, Aug 4th 2005 22:05
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Players :: MP3
System :: Hardware
About: PyGogear is a tool for using the Philips GoGear MP3 players under
Linux. The GoGear Philips HDD0xx series of MP3 players can be mounted with
the usb-storage module, but merely copying MP3 files onto it is not enough,
since the player needs to read information about the tracks from a Sqlite
database file, usually named MyDb. This program reads the necessary tags
(either ID3v1 or ID3v2) from the MP3 files placed on the player and
inserts them in the database. M3U playlists are supported.
Changes: Some general bugs due to bad coding were fixed. Handling of
encounters with bad tags (or no tags) was improved, so now some defaults
are set. Files with id3v2.2 tags are skipped, since eyeD3 does not handle
them properly. The read_tag() method was removed in favor of read_mp3().
The fix_string() method was added. The set_defaults() method was added to
set some default tags when needed.

[044] - Quantity Modeling Language 0.05

Thu, Aug 4th 2005 14:13
Information Management :: Document Repositories
Information Management :: Metadata/Semantic Models
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Indexing/Search
About: QML (Quantity Modeling Language) is a "thing"-based language for
scientific and mathematical data modeling. Each "thing" is a quantity
which may be associated with either a structure or physical phenomena.
Quantities, in turn, may hold other Quantities or values (numbers or
strings). Higher-level data models, which associate or define meanings to
various quantities (such as velocity or position), can be built from QML
quantities. The higher-level data model (XML) schema that inherits from
QML may be understood, and its instance documents may be parsed into QML
documents and objects by the QMLReader.
Changes: Overall, this release is a significant upgrade in the ability of
QML to model extended objects and their documents, as well as better
support of XML schema standards. The ability to handle generic DOM
elements with simple/mixed content has been added. The ability to handle
the common xsd:string, xsd:anyURI content types in QMLelements has been
added. Number-based types need further consideration, however. A schema
inheritance interpretation problem with mixed child nodeshas been fixed.

[048] - SMS Server Tools 1.15.2
by Stefan Frings (http://freshmeat.net/users/sfrings/)
Thu, Aug 4th 2005 14:15
Communications
About: The SMS Server Tools (smstools) were made to send and receive SMS
from one or many GSM modems. They include a send/receive daemon and some
sample scripts to build an SMS email gateway and for logging into an SQL
database. The daemon waits for files in an outgoing spool directory and
sends them. It puts all received SMS in an incoming spool directory, and
can call any external program for incoming or outgoing notification. This
software support text messages in 7 and 16 bits (UCS2), as well as 8 bit
binary messages.
Changes: Time between sending of characters can be slowed down to work
around problems with modems that do not support hardware handshake. smsd
passed the (incorrect) -l option to the sub-programs when logging
destination was not configured; this has been fixed.

About: Web Performance Analyzer is a Web performance tool that allows

It is available as a standalone program and an Eclipse plugin. WPA
captures Web pages as you browse and reveals dynamic HTTP requests,
forwards, and other low-level details that aren't visible from a browser.
But unlike other simple protocol sniffers, WPA can tell you if your Web
pages are getting faster or slower by replaying recorded sessions and
comparing the current performance to previous measurements.
Changes: This is the first working version of the program that is
appropriate for a public audience.
