[001] - 3rd Edition Dungeons & Dragons Character Generator 2.8
by Slicer (http://freshmeat.net/users/slicer/)
Sun, Oct 30th 2005 01:33
Games/Entertainment :: Role-Playing
About: 3rd Edition Dungeons and Dragons Character Generator is an
HTML/JavaScript Web page that allows the user to quickly and easily create
new Dungeons and Dragons characters. The characters can be of any of the
eleven classes, any of the playable races, and may start at any level from
1 to 220. Generation requires some simple input, after which the character
is displayed on a basic character sheet. It allows you to select your
starting stats, add ability points, and pick skills, equipment, feats, and
spells. It runs on most operating systems with most modern browsers.
Changes: When a user tries to select a feat without first having the
feat's prerequisites, a pop-up box displays a list of the feat's
requirements.

[002] - aewm 1.3.1 (Development)
by Decklin Foster (http://freshmeat.net/users/decklin/)
Sun, Oct 30th 2005 00:43
Desktop Environment :: Window Managers
About: aewm is a minimalist window manager for X11. It has no nifty
features, but is light on resources and extremely simple in appearance. It
should eventually make a good reference implementation of the ICCCM. A few
separate programs are included to handle running programs, switching
between windows, etc.
Changes: UTF-8 support was added, and various EWMH bugs were fixed.

[003] - aiParts 0.8.2
by Brian Marshall (http://freshmeat.net/users/bmarshal/)
Sun, Oct 30th 2005 22:45
Scientific/Engineering :: Artificial Intelligence
About: aiParts is a set of C++ classes that implement artificial
intelligence techniques and some tiny sample programs. The classes
implement the pandemonium and emotion AI Patterns, and the High-Hope
technique. A "find the shortest path from A to B" sample program uses
subclasses of the High-Hope classes.
Changes: The way a try affects High-Hope decisions and options has been
heavily modified. A hope-calculation bug was fixed. If a decision has
multiple best options, one is now chosen randomly. In the shortest-path
sample program, option-distance no longer affects which option is chosen.
Other small changes were made. This sample program, using the High-Hope
technique, now appears to work moderately well. More testing and
experimenting are required.

[004] - arpalert 0.4.12 (Release Candidate)
by Thierry FOURNIER (http://freshmeat.net/users/fourniert/)
Sun, Oct 30th 2005 11:20
Security
System :: Logging
System :: Monitoring
About: arpalert uses ARP address monitoring to help prevent unauthorized
connections on the local network. If an illegal connection is detected, a
program or script is launched, which could be used to send an alert
message, for example.
Changes: unauthorized requests can be detected, which makes it possible to
ignore the self request generated by the Windows DHCP client. The
unauthorized request file supports comments everywhere. When the program
is not running in deamon mode, the logs are displayed on standard output.
A segfault problem in sens_has was fixed. A segfault in the debug message
was fixed. An error in the log function was fixed.

[006] - Automated Argument Helper 1.0.1
by Scott McKellar (http://freshmeat.net/users/mck9/)
Sun, Oct 30th 2005 21:52
About: Aargh is a code generator written in C++. Based on specifications
defined in an XML file, it generates C++ code to parse a command line,
using the getopt() facility available in Unix, Linux, and similar
environments. It supports command line options with integer arguments,
string arguments, and no arguments. It optionally applies range tests to
validate the option arguments, or calls a user-defined validation
function. The generated code is commented and carefully indented for
readability.
Changes: This release corrects a couple of bugs in the generated code. One
bug calculated the value of new_argv_ incorrectly, and the other failed to
use the default structure name in one spot.

[007] - bayonne 1.1.0 (Bayonne 2)
by David Sugar (http://freshmeat.net/users/davidsugar/)
Sun, Oct 30th 2005 11:41
Communications :: Internet Phone
Communications :: Telephony
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio
About: Bayonne is the telephony server of the GNU project. Bayonne offers
a script driven threaded multiline state event telephony service for
building voice response systems and telephony plugins for runtime driver
configuration. Bayonne also features "TGI" for making perl applications
"telephony aware". Bayonne may be used to build telephony based system
administration, home automation, automated attendent, v-commerce, and
voice messaging systems.
Changes: The re-introduction of Troll, and second version IVR scripting
language (ivrscript2). Changes between the 0.9 and 1.0 release have been
consolidated into the 1.1 branch. Configuration has been simplified for
either loading a single telephony driver, or optional driver and network
protocol combinations for gateway operations.

[008] - BitEvolution 0.9d
by Scott Gillette (http://freshmeat.net/users/scottagillette/)
Sun, Oct 30th 2005 01:28
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
About: BitEvolution is an easy-to-use client/server application that you
can use to keep your distributed application up to date. Modeled after the
Apache ANT project, it is a task-based application intended to eliminate
the work required to write, test, and debug a home-grown update
application. Your distributed application does not have to be written in
Java to take advantage of BitEvolution.
Changes: The incoming_port, outgoing_port, and transmission_port were
changed from required attributes to optional attributes. The client and
server will now default these values if they are not specified. The memory
footprint of the server when responding to client requests was reduced. If
the server cannot connect to the incoming_port, it logs a warning and
exits instead of throwing an exception.

[009] - Cedar Backup 2.7.0
by Kenneth J. Pronovici (http://freshmeat.net/users/pronovic/)
Sun, Oct 30th 2005 21:52
Software Development :: Libraries :: Python Modules
System :: Archiving :: Backup
Utilities
About: Cedar Backup is a Python package that supports backups of files on
local and remote hosts to CD-R or CD-RW media over a secure network
connection. Cedar Backup also includes extensions that understand how to
back up MySQL databases and Subversion repositories, and it can be easily
extended to support other data sources, as well. The package is focused
around weekly backups to a single disc, with the expectation that the disc
will be changed or overwritten at the beginning of each week.
Changes: This release includes a lot of changes, including code cleanup, a
number of enhancements, and several bugfixes. The MySQL extension has been
enhanced to avoid exposing usernames/passwords in the process listing.
Incremental backups should be somewhat faster. There is now support for
pre- and post-action command hooks. Also, internal XML support has been
reworked, and Cedar Backup no longer requires the PyXML package.

[010] - cfvers 0.5.4
by Iustin (http://freshmeat.net/users/iusty/)
Sun, Oct 30th 2005 21:48
System :: Archiving :: Backup
About: cfvers is a versioning system for configuration files. It is
similar to CVS and Subversion, but different in its orientation toward
system configuration files, dealing with all file types and attributes. It
does not pollute the filesystem outside its dirs, it keeps both data and
metadata (owner, group, perms, atime, mtime), and it deals with all types
of files (S_IFSOCK, S_IFLNK, S_IFREG, S_IFBLK, S_IFDIR, S_IFCHR, S_IFIFO).
Changes: This release adds virtual file support (versioning of command
output) and new commands in the cfv tool. A new client-server model and
deleted files support have been made available since the last public
release.

[012] - csapi 0.1.9
by grandpas (http://freshmeat.net/users/chrysalice/)
Sun, Oct 30th 2005 04:09
Software Development :: Bug Tracking
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
Software Development :: Quality Assurance
About: csapi is a pure Java client and Eclipse plugin for Telelogic
Synergy/Change. It features common operations on the server through a set
of core Java classes (the Java API), and a convenient wrapper for the
Eclipse IDE. The whole system is based on the Telelogic Perl API, and uses
a reverse-engineered version of the SOAP protocol between client and
server. Currently, only read-only operations have been implemented, which
allow various queries on a ChangeSynergy 4.3 server.
Changes: This release once again works with Synergy/Change 4.3 servers
(version 4.4 was not tested). Only login and reporting are implemented,
but the implementation is robust enough to handle almost any string
pattern.

[013] - DerMixD 1.0.1
by Thomas Orgis (http://freshmeat.net/users/sobukus/)
Sun, Oct 30th 2005 10:47
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Players
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Players :: MP3
About: DerMixD is an audio mixing and network-listening daemon that is
similar to mixplayd but quite different in its implementation. It supports
the playing of music files on a run-time configurable number of input
channels, mixing them together and producing output on a run-time
configurable number of output channels. It is controlled over a TCP socket
and supports pitch shifting, scripting, gapless playing of tracks,
including filtering of null samples from padding, use of mpg123's
equalizer, flexible input/output connection, and more.
Changes: Gapless following of tracks has been subtly broken in multiple
ways, and was fixed. A finite threshold was added for front/back silence
scanning on MP3 files, since these are rarely absolutely silent when they
should be.

Scientific/Engineering :: Mathematics
Software Development :: Libraries
About: GiNaC (GiNaC is Not a CAS (Computer Algebra System)) is a C++
library for symbolic calculations. It is designed to allow the creation of
integrated systems that embed symbolic manipulations together with more
established areas of computer science (like computation-intense numeric
applications, graphical interfaces, etc.). Contrary to other CASes it does
not try to provide extensive algebraic capabilities and a simple
programming language but instead accepts a given language (C++) and
extends it by a set of algebraic capabilities.
Changes: A numerical univariate real-valued function solver has been
added. Li() and S() can be series-expanded at x=0. The matrix operations
now include submatrices and reduced matrices. Bugs in the H() function and
in the algebraic substitution code have been fixed.

execution times (total, average, minimum, maximum, standard deviation),
and simultaneous application requests. JAMon statistics are displayed in
the sortable JAMon report.
Changes: Adds the JAMon Servlet filter, which allows developers to monitor
all Web application page accesses (servlets, JSPs, JPEG, HTML, etc.) with
JAMon. This solution does not require any changes to a Web application;
simply change the web.xml. No interface changes were made. You should be
able to simply drop this jar in place of the old JAMon.jar.

Sun, Oct 30th 2005 00:45
Communications
Information Management
Information Management :: Records Management
About: Magellan Metasearch is a modular meta search engine, enabling users
to monitor as many search engines as they want. It provides a complex query
language with standard boolean operators, meta-operators (to search through
pages' metadata), and proximity operators. This language enables users to
perform far more complex queries than what common search engines currently
support. It can be fed any custom sources, since its abstraction layer
manages the search results and their meta tags in a uniform way. In
conjunction with the local process scheduler (such as "cron"), Magellan
enables you to save your requests and replay them later automatically; new
results are sent through email and RSS in realtime. Magellan also provides
full anonymity through smart multi-proxy support.
Changes: This release adds a brand new set of MySQL drivers, enabling
Magellan to be safely deployed in single-database environments. A MySQL
bug has been fixed, which prevented tables with more than 32 indexes from
being created. A bug in the filtering system that prevented search results
from being displayed correctly under specific circumstances has been
solved.

Sun, Oct 30th 2005 11:06
System :: Networking :: Monitoring
About: mwcollect is an easy solution to collect worm-like malware in a
non-native environment like FreeBSD or Linux. The first versions were used
to collect binaries for botnet monitoring, and bots are still what it is
mostly collecting. Some people consider it a next generation honeypot;
however, that comparison often leads to the misunderstanding that
computers running mwcollect can actually be infected with the malware,
which is not the case.
Changes: This version is a complete rewrite from the scratch. The network
core now supports mulitple (vulnerability) modules per port and is much
more mature and stable in general. This release is the step from the
proof-of-concept toy to a real mature project.

single song, mix queries that combine works from multiple artists, and
stream queries that find Shoutcast radio streams. A variety of filters are
available to pick just the music you want. In order to actually play the
music it finds, Plait hands off a play list to one of the supported music
players.
Changes: This is a bugfix release for "plaiter", the command line front
end for command line music players. In the previous release of "plaiter",
the controller sent relative file paths to the player daemon, which meant
that they had to run in the same directory. This release sends absolute
file paths.

Sun, Oct 30th 2005 11:09
Communications :: Email :: Mail Transport Agents
About: sendmail X is a modularized message transfer system consisting of
five (or more) persistent processes, four of which are multi-threaded. A
central queue manager controls SMTP servers and SMTP clients to receive
and send email messages, an address resolver provides lookups in various
maps (including DNS) for mail routing, and a main control program starts
the others processes and watches over their execution. The queue manager
organizes the flow of messages through the system and provides measures to
avoid overloading the local or remote systems by implementing a central
control instance. sendmail X is simple to configure using a syntax that is
easy to understand and use. It is intended to be used as a secure and
efficient mail gateway. It does not provide any mail content modification
capabilities such as address masquerading.
Changes: This version has better error logging for STARTTLS problems and a
libpmilter fix.

Desktop Environment :: K Desktop Environment (KDE) :: Themes KDE 3.x
Security
System :: Filesystems
About: Smb4K is a SMB and CIFS (Windows) share browser for KDE. It uses
the Samba software suite to access the SMB and CIFS shares of the local
network neighborhood. Its purpose is to provide a program that's easy to
use and has as many features as possible.
Changes: The security issues in Smb4KFileIO are really fixed. Now,
temporary files and directories are used to copy and modify sensitive
data, and the lock file is verified to be a non-symlink.
unmount-all-shares-on-exit functionality, which was broken due to changes
that were applied to the smb4k_umount utility program in earlier versions
of Smb4K, has been fixed. Forced unmounting of shares, a running progress
bar after you denied the forced unmounting of a share, and a missing exit
(EXIT_FAILURE) statement in the smb4k_umount utility have been fixed.

[063] - Task Coach 0.51
by Frank Niessink (http://freshmeat.net/users/fniessink/)
Sun, Oct 30th 2005 21:45
Office/Business :: Scheduling
About: Task Coach is a simple todo manager to manage personal tasks and
todo lists. It grew out of a frustration that well-known task managers,
such as those provided with Outlook or Lotus Notes, do not provide
facilities for composite tasks. Often, tasks and other things to do
consist of several activities. Task Coach is designed to deal with
composite tasks.
Changes: This release makes it possible to change the task an effort
record belongs to, and to cut, copy, and paste effort records. Also
included are some smaller changes: escape now closes pop-up windows,
hitting enter in the find dialog on Linux now works, and old TaskCoach.ini
files with a language setting of 'en' instead of 'en_US' or 'en_GB' are
loaded correctly now.

[064] - TCPfork 2.30

Sun, Oct 30th 2005 11:34
Internet :: Proxy Servers
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Site Management
System :: Clustering/Distributed Networks
About: TCPfork is a userland TCP proxy with advanced load balancing
capabilities. Its core features are the ability to load balance on a
"least connection" basis and the ability to take the machine load into
account ("least load" or "least resource" load balancing). This is
implemented by using the bngagent UDP protocol. It performs "TCP open"
health checks by default and allows the use of external health check
scripts. TCPfork 2.x introduces a highly optimized multithreading
connection scheduler, allowing fast processing of high numbers of
concurrent connections.
Changes: A general code cleanup was performed. Simple command line editing
with arrow keys was added. The core concept changed to a single process
model (no shared memory). Further performance and stability tests were
successfully executed. Release 1 was updated to 1.90 with a code cleanup.
Both manuals were updated.

Sun, Oct 30th 2005 00:46
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Presentation
Text Processing :: General
About: WP Clipart is an attempt to make a useful clipart package of public
domain images for use in word processors. It contains nearly 5,000 pieces
of non-transparent PNG clip art, which is exactly what AbiWord prints and
scales well. It has been optimized for use in all word processors (scaled
down, midtones expanded for inkjet print quality, etc.) It is suitable for
documents as well as Web graphics, but also has business application
(credit cards, promo graphics) and educational uses (pictures of all US
presidents, all country flags, all US states, sign language alphabet).
Changes: The startup location in directory tree was tweaked for use with
clipart. A large addition and a cleanup were done to the clipart. Most of
latest clipart additions are converted, resized, and sometimes
color-adjusted items from the OpenClipart library.
