[002] - Ajax+PHP CSS Popup Chat rev173
by RoLo (http://freshmeat.net/users/rolosworld/)
Thu, Dec 22nd 2005 03:56
Communications :: Chat
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
About: Ajax+PHP CSS Popup Chat is an application for communicating with
the users currently watching a Web page. On the browser, it uses
JavaScript to request the online users list from the PHP script. If the
user clicks on one of a user's nickname, a CSS popup will appear for
sending messages. If the user receives a message and no CSS popup from the
sender is open, a CSS popup will be open with the messages. The libraries
are designed so that anyone with any HTML code can use them.
Changes: User list refresh is now limited by the alive_time setting. A
packed chat.js and ajax.js were added. The other scripts were changed to
use them. All AJAX transactions were crunched to one per second. Public
chat support was added along with many bugfixes.

was added for the prerouting chain ($TTL_INC). iptables TTL packet setting
($PACKET_TTL) was added. An option to change default TTL ($DEFAULT_TTL) was
added. A bug which prevented LAN rules from working for multiple interfaces
was fixed. The "reload" command was changed into "force-reload".
Miscellaneous tweaks and fixes were made.

[006] - Arri 0.2a1
by Adam Gleave (http://freshmeat.net/users/parasitical/)
Thu, Dec 22nd 2005 03:59
Security
About: Arri provides an interface for accessing arrays in a safe manner
that means that it is impossible to cause an overflow and, if the array is
set to hard (it normally is), truncation. In addition to simply providing
an interface for handling arrays, it also provides interfaces for using
the arrays such as an IO API.
Changes: Some macros were added with safe values for initializing buffers.
r_buffer and w_buffer were removed from the p_arr data structure and
replaced with array. The examples were improved. p_buf_read_modifiable now
checks that you can actually write something. p_f_err and p_f_err2 were
removed as they were redunant.

Thu, Dec 22nd 2005 11:31
System :: Archiving :: Backup
System :: Archiving :: Mirroring
System :: Operating System Kernels :: Linux
About: This driver allows the Linux kernel to use the ATA over Ethernet
(AoE) network protocol. Using AoE, a Linux system can use AoE block
devices like EtherDrive (R) storage blades. The block devices appear as
local device nodes (e.g. /dev/etherd/e0.0).
Changes: AoE traffic to a single AoE device can now be performed over
multiple network interfaces for fault tolerance.

About: Bygfoot is a small and simple graphical football (a.k.a. soccer)
manager game featuring many international leagues and cups. You manage a
team from one such league: you form the team, buy and sell players, get
promoted or relegated, and of course try to be successful.
Changes: This is a bugfix release which addresses the segfault which
occurred when a user wins the cup or loses the final and the problem in
which the Windows version didn't save.

by 1bitmemory (http://freshmeat.net/users/1bitmemory/)
Thu, Dec 22nd 2005 08:09
System :: Filesystems
About: compFUSEd is a simple FUSE based compressed overlay filesystem that
provides both read and write operations. Files are compressed and
decompressed on-the-fly, but the actual storage is done in the directory
of an underlying filesystem. This underlying filesystem takes care of
space allocation, fragmention, and other operations not related to
compression. It features a configuration file, the ability to use multiple
compression formats, a blacklist of extensions that should not be
compressed, and more.
Changes: The HOWTO.txt file was written. Bugfixes were made. Greatly
needed file utilities were added. Logging features were added. The
statfs() code was patched, and now returns the size of the data present on
the compFUSEd filesystem.

Information Management
System
System :: Archiving
About: Erik's Partial Archive Collator takes a directory as an argument,
then walks through it looking for duplicate and partially duplicate
files. If it finds exact duplicates, it deletes one and creates a hard
link to the other, minimizing disk usage. If it finds a pair of files
where the larger file contains the entire contents of the smaller file,
it will prompts to combine them and create a hard link.
Changes: This release re-organizes the source (now a src/ directory), a
new -w flag to set the progress bar width, support for OS X 10.3 and 10.4,
and various minor bugfixes.

[025] - HTML::Template 2.8
by Sam Tregar (http://freshmeat.net/users/sunking/)
Thu, Dec 22nd 2005 11:29
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
Software Development :: Libraries
About: The HTML::Template module attempts to make using HTML templates
simple and natural. It extends standard HTML with a few new tags for
variables, loops, if/else blocks and includes. A file written with HTML
and these new tags is called a template. Using this module you fill in the
values for the variables and loops declared in the template. This allows
you to seperate design (the HTML) from the data, which you generate in the
Perl script. While there are many other HTML template systems available,
this module is simple and fast. It doesn't try to reinvent Perl CGI, it
just augments HTML with a few new and very useful abilities.
Changes: This release fixes a number of small bugs and adds a new option
called default_escape.

Software Development :: Libraries
About: The HTML::Template::Expr module provides an extension to
HTML::Template which allows expressions in the template syntax. This is
purely an addition--all the normal HTML::Template options, syntax, and
behaviors will still work. Expression support includes comparisons, math
operations, string operations, and a mechanism allowing you to add your
own functions at runtime.
Changes: This release fixes a compatibility problem with the recently
release HTML::Template 2.8.

Adaptive Technologies
Communications
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
About: IkeWiki is a new kind of Wiki (a so-called "Semantic Wiki")
developed by Salzburg Research that allows users to collaboratively
annotate pages and links between pages with semantic annotations. Such
annotations are useful because they give machines a certain amount of
"understanding" of the content that goes beyond merely displaying the
page. This information can then, for example, be used for context-specific
presentation of pages, advanced querying, consistency verification, or
drawing conclusions. It currently only works properly with Mozilla Firefox
and Opera (partly).
Changes: The license was changed to the LGPL. The code modularized and
cleaned up. Experimental support for SPARQL querying and XForms was added.

[029] - Java for C++ 0.4
by Stefan Palme (http://freshmeat.net/users/kleiner/)
Thu, Dec 22nd 2005 03:50
Software Development :: Code Generators
About: Java for C++ is a tool that generates C++ wrapper classes for
existing Java classes. It reads a list of Java class names and creates
source code for C++ classes to wrap them. The implementation of the
wrapper classes uses JNI (Java Native Interface) to call the "real" Java
classes. The C++ API to use these wrapper classes is very close to the API
of the original Java classes, so developers of C++ software can use Java
classes as if they have been implemented in C++.
Changes: A problem where null values for method arguments, method return
values, or field values caused some generated code to crash was fixed.
Updating is strongly encouraged.

select the exact classes your Java app uses, build your directory tree,
and produce JAR files. JExpress Professional can even use a sophisticated
algorithm to upload your software to your Web site without user
intervention. It can create native installers for Windows, Linux, Mac OS
X, and Solaris that install the JVM if it isn't already installed.
Changes: The uninstaller is more flexible; if the user moves the
application, the uninstaller removes the product from the new location.

Software Development
About: jZeno is a meta-project that integrates a collection of Java
libraries to form a ready-to-use Web development environment. The main
architectural goal of jZeno is to allow people to create Web applications
by using pure Java development as much as possible, largely reducing the
need to know technologies like Javascript, HTML, CSS, database-specific
SQL, and tons of different APIs.
Changes: This release introduces an AJAX-enabled rendering engine for the
Echo toolkit. This allows jZeno applications to perform very fast and
compact updates to the running application without the need to load full
pages all the time. Various other bugfixes and enhancements have been
added as well. At the same time as the 0.9 release, a bugfix release for
0.8 is available. The 0.8.x series will be maintained for some time to
come.

Thu, Dec 22nd 2005 08:15
Security
System :: Operating System Kernels :: Linux
About: The MultiAdmin security framework kernel module provides a means to
have multiple "root" users with unique UIDs. This bypasses collation order
problems with NSCD, allows you to have files with unique owners, and
allows you to track the quota usage for every "real" user. It also
implements a "sub-admin", a partially restricted root user who has full
read-only access to most subsystems, but write rights only to a limited
subset, for example writing to files or killing processes only of certain
users.
Changes: This version provides a kernel patch for the upcoming kernel
version 2.6.15. Kernel version 2.6.13 is also supported.

About: Net_NNTP is PEAR's package for communication with NNTP/Usenet
servers. Net_NNTP handles the connection and protocol level commands
(RFC977), including many non-standard commands (RFC2980). Net_NNTP
includes a user-friendly API for intermediate users who don't want to work
directly at the command level. However, Net_NNTP does require some knowlege
about the NNTP protocol and general knowledge about email and MIME, since
any handling of both content and headers is left up to the user.
Changes: Posting-related methods have been rewritten. The client now
features a mail() method identical to PHP's own mail() function.

[056] - Ragel State Machine Compiler 5.1
by Adrian Thurston (http://freshmeat.net/users/age/)
Thu, Dec 22nd 2005 00:05
Software Development :: Code Generators
About: Ragel compiles finite state machines from regular languages into C,
C++, Objective-C, or D code. It allows the programmer to embed actions at
any point in a regular language and to control non-determinism in the
resulting machines. It understands concatenation, union, kleene star,
subtraction, intersection, epsilon transitions, and various other common
operators. Through the use of labels and epsilon transitions, Ragel
supports the building of state machines using a named state and associated
transition list paradigm. Its finite state machines are closed under all of
its operators. This property allows for arbitrary regular languages to be
described. It can be used to create a parser for any language that is
regular.
Changes: Bugs related to return status, the longest match operator,
Graphviz output generation, intermediate data parsing, machine selection
with -M, the Vim syntax file, and error handling were fixed. Some broken
test cases were fixed. The rlscan example was updated.

[062] - SpeedySu 2.24
by pts (http://freshmeat.net/users/pts/)
Thu, Dec 22nd 2005 08:05
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: HTTP Servers
About: SpeedySu is a modification of SpeedyCGI (a.k.a. PersistentPerl) so
that it works with suEXEC-enabled Apache Web servers. Both Apache 1.3.x
and 2.y running on UNIX systems are supported. SpeedyCGI speeds up Perl
scripts (CGI or not) so that they remain running persistently, thus
reducing the startup times of subsequent executions. SpeedySu extends
SpeedyCGI by allowing ~UserDir CGI scripts started by Apache execute with
the privileges of their owner user. SpeedySu contains other improvements
in addition to suEXEC support.

Information Management :: Issue Tracking
Information Management :: Records Management
Internet :: Log Analysis
About: Splunk organizes and makes sense of any type of machine data,
including Web servers, application servers, email servers, databases, and
network devices. It uses algorithms that dynamically discover event
relationships across diverse domains of machine data and build a
searchable Web of events to trace the real behavior of running systems. A
Splunk server can optionally work with Splunk.com, allowing users in
different organizations to participate in a global troubleshooting
community and share knowledge about common events and problems while
preserving data privacy.
Changes: This release updates many features -- Live Splunks, search
history, syslog event processing, multiple index support, and file export
-- with improvements suggested by customers. The online Splunk Base
service has been significantly expanded. The index size for both Splunk
Server and Splunk Professional has been reduced from 3x to 1.2x that of
the raw data, and the index performance has been boosted.

Software Development :: Libraries
About: XmlBlaster is XML based MOM (Message oriented Middleware) with a
lot of features. It is a publish/subscribe and point-to-point MOM server
which exchanges XML-encoded messages. Communication with the server is
based on CORBA (using JacORB), RMI, XML-RPC, native socket, or a

the messages they wish to receive and add their own MIME-based filter
plugins. C/C++, Java, Perl, Python, VisualBasic.net, C#, and PHP client
demos are included in the xmlBlaster test suite, and Tcl and Python demo
clients are scheduled. XmlBlaster also provides a browser callback
framework, allowing browsers (Netscape, Mozilla, MSIE) to receive instant
callbacks over a persistent http connection. A security plugin framework
allows authentication/authorization in many ways. Currently there are
LDAP- and passwd-based plugins available.
Changes: A new, sophisticated database replication framework. A new email
protocol plugin with many features to tunnel firewalls transparently. A
new C# client based on XML-RPC. A Flash XML-RPC client. More JMX control
for smooth operation. Fixes for many smaller issues.
