Information Management :: Issue Tracking
Software Development :: Bug Tracking
About: AgileTrack is an agile development planning and iteration tracking
tool. It assists in the creation and life-cycle of iterations, projects,
stories, tasks, and bugs. It is focused on simplicity and practicality.
Its interface is designed to be useful specifically for software
developers on small development teams with rapidly-changing priorities and
requirements. Its primary interface for developers is geared toward
availability, speed, and purpose. It is flexible and minimalistic with
respect to the data that is required for records. It is designed to be
compatible with agile development methodologies, particularly Extreme
Programming.
Changes: This release adds a framework for internationalization of the
user interface. Users may create custom language files if desired and
those are automatically available in the interface. It also provides a
JSON-RPC Web service interface for the client and server. Lastly, it
improves speed of the XML-RPC interface.

[002] - Aircrack-ng 0.4
by Thomas d'Otreppe (http://freshmeat.net/users/aircrackng/)
Mon, Apr 17th 2006 00:13
Security
System :: Monitoring
System :: Networking
About: aircrack-ng is a set of tools for auditing wireless networks. It's
an enhanced/reborn version of aircrack. It consists of airodump (an 802.11
packet capture program), aireplay (an 802.11 packet injection program),
aircrack (static WEP and WPA-PSK cracking), airdecap (decrypts WEP/WPA
capture files), and some tools to handle capture files (merge, convert,
etc.).
Changes: Typos were fixed and cosmetic changes were made in the sources
and manpages. The attack names were renamed in airepley-ng. Some compile
warnings were fixed in airodump-ng, hopping also on .11a channels if
available. A problem in which GPS coordinates were never shown was fixed.
ipw2100 and madwifi-ng detection were fixed in airmon-ng. Speed
optimizations were done in aircrack-ng. The -x option disables the last 2
keybytes bruteforce (so WEP cracking is faster). With the -a option, you
can use "wep" or "wpa" instead of numbers. The --merge option in ivstools
was fixed. The Makefiles were improved. Lots of little changes were made.
Files for building RPM and Slackware packages were added.

[010] - check_logfiles 1.2.5
by lausser (http://freshmeat.net/users/lausser/)
Mon, Apr 17th 2006 10:59
System :: Logging
System :: Monitoring
About: check_logfiles is a plugin for Nagios which checks logfiles for
defined patterns. It is capable of detecting logfile rotation. If you tell
it how the rotated archives look, it will also examine these files. Unlike
check_logfiles, traditional logfile plugins were not aware of the gap
which could occur, so under some circumstances they ignored what had
happened between their checks. A configuration file is used to specify
where to search, what to search, and what to do if a matching line is
found.
Changes: Release 1.2.4 had a bug in the fake seek algorithm. This could
lead to dropped events that occurred between a check_logfiles run and a
logfile rotation.

Mon, Apr 17th 2006 18:02
Games/Entertainment
Games/Entertainment :: Real Time Strategy
Games/Entertainment :: Simulation
About: GalaxyHack allows you to design a fleet of spaceships which can
then be tested in AI script based battles against fleets designed by other
players. Though battles take place in real time, the strategy comes
beforehand, both in writing short AI scripts in an easy-to-use proprietary
scripting language, and also in the set up and selection of your forces.
Changes: The main change is that the forum is open again, and that you are
once again able to submit fleets. Since 1.62 there are only a couple of
very minor code changes (the dependency on SDL_gfx has been removed, and
the game no longer draws a circle with a radius of 1 when displaying the
range of a ship without a weapon).

[030] - Jameleon 3.2
by Christian Hargraves (http://freshmeat.net/users/engrean/)
Mon, Apr 17th 2006 14:43
Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
Software Development :: Quality Assurance
Software Development :: Testing
About: Jameleon is an automated testing framework that can be used by
technical and non-technical users alike. One of the main concepts behind
it is to create a group of keywords or tags that represent different
screens of an application. All of the logic required to automate each
particular screen can be defined in Java and mapped to these keywords. The
keywords can then be organized with different data sets to form test
scripts without requiring an in-depth knowledge of how the application
works. The test scripts are then used for both testing automation and test
case document generation.
Changes: Several features were added to the HttpUnit plug-in, including an
upgrade to HttpUnit 1.6.2. A few features were added to the Jiffie plug-in,
and some annoying bugs were fixed in the UI. Param tags can now be nested
in data-drivable tags, and variables can be passed to scripts via Ant.

About: SVGSlice is a simple tool which generates chopped up images from
Inkscape SVG drawings. To figure out where to cut, SVGSlice can use
Inkscape's built in guides (for simpler, grid-like cuts), or it can use a
specially named "slices" layer that contains rectangles that mark areas to
slice. Demo files showing both approaches are included.
Changes: SVGSlice now works directly within Inkscape as an extension.
Usage was simplified, removing guide-based slicing mode, so that
rectangles on a slices layer is the only method users need to worry about.

[061] - The SlotSig library 1.0.0
by kafka-fr (http://freshmeat.net/users/kafkafr/)
Mon, Apr 17th 2006 11:17
Software Development :: Libraries
About: The SlotSig library tries to provide a solution to the common
problem of sending messages between various C++ classes (this has nothing
to do with Corba or KDE's DCOP). Similar solutions to this problem can
also be found in Qt or libsigc++, but this library tries to be both
simpler to use and smaller. It also provides better type-checking at
compile-time to avoid finding errors at runtime, when it's usually too
late.
Changes: Incorporates the Makefile from Leopold Palomo-Avellaneda to
generate a global shared library containing the very small amount of
static code. Updated benchmarks. The 1.x versions of SlotSig will remain
binary-compatible. No major new features are expected; mainly cosmetic
changes and bugfixes. The main line of development will be done in a
1.99.x branch, which may someday lead to a 2.0 version.

Mon, Apr 17th 2006 14:41
Office/Business
Security
Security :: Cryptography
About: TrueCrypt is on-the-fly disk encryption software that can create a
virtual encrypted disk within a file and mount it as a real disk. It can
also encrypt an entire hard disk partition, or a storage device such as
USB memory stick. It supports plausible deniability.
Changes: Among the new features are the ability to create a TrueCrypt
volume under Linux, the ability to create a dynamic container whose
physical size (actual disk space used) grows as new data is added to it,
the ability to change volume passwords/keyfiles under Linux, the ability
to create keyfiles under Linux, and many more. This release makes the
Linux version completely independent of the Windows version. However, both
versions will continue to be mutually compatible.

[066] - VMD 1.8.4
by VMD (http://freshmeat.net/users/vmd/)
Mon, Apr 17th 2006 14:40
Multimedia :: Graphics :: 3D Rendering
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Viewers
Scientific/Engineering
About: VMD (Visual Molecular Dynamics) is designed for the visualization
and analysis of biological systems such as proteins, nucleic acids, lipid
bilayer assemblies, etc. It may be used to view more general molecules, as
VMD can read standard Protein Data Bank (PDB) files and display the
contained structure. VMD provides a wide variety of methods for rendering
and coloring a molecule: simple points and lines, CPK spheres and
cylinders, licorice bonds, backbone tubes and ribbons, cartoon drawings,
and others. VMD can be used to animate and analyze the trajectory of a
molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. In particular, VMD can act as a
graphical front end for an external MD program by displaying and animating
a molecule undergoing simulation on a remote computer. VMD uses OpenGL and
OpenGL Programmable Shading Language for high performance rendering of
large structures.
Changes: This is the first version ported to Mac OS X on Intel x86
processors, Linux on Intel Itanium processors, and AIX 5.x on 32-bit and
64-bit POWER processors. Structure building, modeling, simulation setup,
and analysis tasks are made easier with the introduction of the new
plugins, which automate common modeling tasks. This release has core
enhancements including support for selecting and displaying files
containing multiple conformations, improved atomic mass and radius
guessing, and improved handling of non-biological structures containing
hundreds of thousands of atoms.

[067] - watchdog 5.2.5
by Michael Meskes (http://freshmeat.net/users/meskes/)
Mon, Apr 17th 2006 11:15
About: The Linux kernel can reset the system if serious problems are
detected. This can be implemented via special watchdog hardware, or via a
slightly less reliable software-only watchdog inside the kernel. Either
way, there needs to be a daemon that tells the kernel the system is
working fine. If the daemon stops doing that, the system is reset.
watchdog is such a daemon. It opens /dev/watchdog, and keeps writing to it
often enough to keep the kernel from resetting, at least once per minute.
Each write delays the reboot time another minute. After a minute the
watchdog hardware will cause the reset. In the case of a software
watchdog, the ability to reboot will depend on the state of the machines
and interrupts.
Changes: Mostly bugfixes. Some developments for 6.0 are already included.

[072] - YourKit Java Profiler 6.0-EAP3
by YourKit Team (http://freshmeat.net/users/YourKitTeam/)
Mon, Apr 17th 2006 10:03
Software Development
Software Development :: Debuggers
Software Development :: Quality Assurance
About: YourKit Java Profiler is a CPU and memory profiler that makes it
easy to solve wide range of CPU- and memory-related performance problems.
It features automatic leak detection, powerful tools for the analysis of
memory distribution, an object heap browser, comprehensive memory tests as
part of your JUnit testing process, extremely low profiling overhead,
transparent deobfuscation support, and integration with Eclipse, JBuilder,
IntelliJ IDEA, NetBeans, and JDeveloper IDEs.
Changes: The Mac OS X on Intel platform is supported. A new profiling mode
was added which provides both method CPU times and invocation counts, but
does not monitor internals of methods from core library classes (java.*,
javax.*, com.sun.*, sun.*). The benefit is in much smaller overhead than
when all methods are monitored. Accuracy of CPU profiling was improved on
Linux, Mac OS X, and Solaris.

Information Management
Text Editors
About: Zim is a WYSIWYG text editor written in Gtk2-Perl It aims to bring
the concept of a wiki to your desktop. Every page is saved as a text file
with wiki markup. Pages can contain links to other pages, and are saved
automatically. Creating a new page is as easy as linking to a non-existing

and feel of an outliner. This tool is intended to keep track of TODO lists
or to serve as a personal scratch book.
Changes: This release adds a search dialog for both normal searches as
back-tracking links. The automatic formatting of links and CamelCase words
has improved. For images, "open with" items for external applications are
shown in the context menu per MIME type.
