Education
Multimedia :: Graphics :: 3D Modeling
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Analysis
About: The aim of auch is to visualize harmonics in musical recordings and
the effect of analog/digital filters on the spectrum. There are plenty of
tools that visualize the spectrum. The difference here is that one or two
octaves can be focused on, so that notes, chords, and harmonics become
clear. Another feature is that this tool is aimed comparing audio out (eg.
a .wav file) with audio in. This way, external filters added between the
audio output and input of your sound card can be studied.
Changes: Code cleanup was done, and several bugs were fixed. This is an
intermediate release, and the Win32 installer was not updated.

Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
About: The Big Faceless Report Generator is a Java application for
converting source documents written in XML to PDF. Built on top of the Big
Faceless PDF & Graph Libraries, the Report Generator combines these

easy as HTML.
Changes: Some tweaks to allow graphs created with the Graph Library 2 to
be embedded into a report. Although theoretically this can be done no
matter how the report is generated, these changes work best when the
report is created using a JSP.

Wed, Sep 13th 2006 04:38
System :: Monitoring
About: DTC-Xen is a Xen dom0 application and SOAP server (with
authentication and SSL) through which a Domain Technologie Control (DTC)
Web hosting panel can be connected to manage your VMs. It supports remote
start, shutdown, and destroy of your virtual machines, fsck, and OS
reinstallation (Debian, CentOS, Gentoo, and NetBSD are supported), as well
as SSH login in the physical console (with the ability to remotely change
the SSH password). It also displays CPU and network graphs that can be
used to analyze the performance of your virtual machines.
Changes: This version brings the possibility to do fsck and full
reinstallation of an operating system (Debian, CentOS, NetBSD, or Gentoo).
It also automaticaly changes the default Debian sshd_config to remove port
forwarding, which could be a security issue if running dtc-xen (since
somebody with a login could have access to all the VMs). DTC-Xen is now
production ready, as it has been fully tested and works with both Xen 2
and 3 and on the amd64 architecture. Note that you have to manually fix a
bug in python-soappy if using amd64 to have it fully functional.

Wed, Sep 13th 2006 09:44
System :: Networking :: Firewalls
About: ferm is a tool to maintain and setup complicated firewall rules. It
allows one to reduce the tedious task of carefully inserting rules and
chains, thus enabling the firewall administrator to spend more time on
developing good rules, and less time on the proper implementation of those
rules. These rules will be executed by the preferred kernel interface, such
as ipchains and iptables, and in one pass. Firewall rules can also be split
into different files and loaded at will.
Changes: This release supports IPv6, raw tables, and many of the new
netfilter modules. Syntax checks are stricter. User-defined functions may
be used. The ability to include files was added. Support for ipchains and
ipfwadm was removed. The new "fast" mode uses iptables-restore. A rollback
is performed on error.

Internet :: Name Service (DNS)
Software Development :: Libraries
Text Processing
About: GNU Libidn is an implementation of the Stringprep, Punycode, and
IDNA specifications defined by the IETF Internationalized Domain Names
(IDN) working group. It is used to prepare internationalized strings (such
as domain name labels, usernames, and passwords) in order to increase the
likelihood that string input and string comparison work in ways that make
sense for typical users throughout the world. The library contains a
generic Stringprep implementation that does Unicode 3.2 NFKC
normalization, mapping and prohibition of characters, and bidirectional
character handling. Profiles for iSCSI, Kerberos 5, Nameprep, SASL, and
XMPP are included. Punycode and ASCII Compatible Encoding (ACE) via IDNA
are supported.
Changes: A build failure of idn-int.h on C99 platforms was fixed. The
manual includes the GPL license for the command-line tools. The function,
variable, and concept index was moved to the end of the manual. The gnulib
files were updated.

Wed, Sep 13th 2006 14:25
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Graphics Conversion
Text Processing
About: Ocrad is the GNU OCR (Optical Character Recognition) program,
implemented as a filter and based on a feature extraction method. It reads
images in pbm (bitmap), pgm (greyscale), or ppm (color) formats and
produces text in byte (8-bit) or UTF-8 formats. It also includes a layout
analyzer that is able to separate the columns or blocks of text normally
found on printed pages. Ocrad can be used as a stand-alone console
application, or as a backend to other programs.
Changes: A new option "--filter" has been added. The algorithm for
vertical space detection (blank lines) has been improved. Some fixes to
the "configure" script have been made. Two new debug levels have been
added. Character recognition has been improved.

[030] - gpgdir 1.0
by Michael Rash (http://freshmeat.net/users/michaelrash/)
Wed, Sep 13th 2006 21:13
Security :: Cryptography
About: gpgdir is a Perl script that uses the CPAN GnuPG module to encrypt
and decrypt directories using a GPG key specified in ~/.gpgdirrc. It
supports recursively descending through a directory in order to make sure
it encrypts or decrypts every file in a directory and all of its
subdirectories. All file mtime and atime values are preserved across
encryption and decryption operations. In addition, gpgdir is careful not
to encrypt hidden files and directories.
Changes: The --Key-id command line argument was added so that use_key can
be overridden from the command line. The argument to use_key no longer
strictly has to be a keyID since GnuPG allows a unique string match on
keys in the key ring. --Default-key was added to allow the user to have
gpgdir use the default key that is defined by GnuPG within the
~/.gnupg/options file. The .gpgdirrc file was updated to include the line
"default_key" to allow the user to have gpgdir prefer to use the GnuPG
default key.

Wed, Sep 13th 2006 10:33
Software Development :: Debuggers
About: The jBixbe debugger lets you debug Java applications on the
conceptual level of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) at which they are
designed and makes it possible to find not only simple bugs but also
weaknesses and inefficiencies in application design. It shows the big
picture of your application so you can recognize classes and objects, and
their relationships and interaction. Different view levels support
top-down debugging and simplify debugging of multi-threaded applications.
Source code debugging has been fully integrated into the object-oriented
visualization.
Changes: This release provides a text view displaying the characters of a
string object, adds the ability to open a dynamic source code view
directly for a method in a sequence diagram, and comes with important
bugfixes concerning the stability and performance of a debug session.

Wed, Sep 13th 2006 10:46
Utilities
About: minised is the fast, small sed originally distributed in the GNU
toolkit and still distributed with Minix. The members of the GNU Project
removed it when they built their own sed around an enhanced regexp
package, but it's still better for some uses (in particular, it's faster
and less memory-intensive).
Changes: This release fixes a special case of grouped star matching where
\+1..n overwrote the last match, does not infinite loop on certain zero
match grouped star cases, and does not crash on the w (write to file)
command. It no longer falls into the conservative end-of-file matching
mode when just end-of-line matching was used.

[051] - PHP Image Manipulation Class 1.0.3
by Stefan Gabos (http://freshmeat.net/users/stefangabos/)
Wed, Sep 13th 2006 04:45
Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes
About: PHP Image Manipulation Class can be used to perform several types
of image manipulation operations. It can rescale images to fit in a given
width or height keeping (or not) the original aspect ratio, flip images
horizontally or vertically, and rotate images by a given angle while
filling the empty spaces with a given color. All operations preserve
transparency. The class does all the error checking for the source and
target files. The class supports loading and saving images in the GIF,
JPEG, and PNG formats.
Changes: If invalid sizes were specified for resizing (i.e. string or
negative numbers) the script would crash. Resizing of transparent PNG24
files was not working. Working with PNG files would always make the value
of the "error" property equal to 5, even if everything went well. When
resizing, interpolation was not used and the resulting images were rough.
Resizing was not working correctly in some cases. All of these bugs have
been fixed. The imagecopyresampled() function is now used instead of
imagecopyresized().

Communications :: Email :: Filters
Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes
About: PHP MIME Mail decoder class is a PHP class to parse and decode MIME
email messages. It supports decoding single RFC 2822 MIME messages or
archives that aggregate multiple messages in the mbox format. It can
decode messages read from files or data strings. The bodies of multipart
messages can be decoded into distinct sub-messages. Optionally, the
message body data can be saved to separate files, so the class can handle
messages larger than the available memory.
Changes: A bug in the detection of message end when parsing messages from
string data was fixed. A workaround was added to handle messages that do
not have a line break at the end. A unit test script was added to verify
that the class can correctly parse all kinds of messages.

by Rasto Levrinc (http://freshmeat.net/users/rastol/)
Wed, Sep 13th 2006 23:59
About: rlocate is an implementation of the "locate" command that is always
up-to-date. The database that the original locate uses is usually updated
only once a day, so newer files cannot be located right away. The behavior
of rlocate is the same as slocate, but it also maintains a diff database
that gets updated whenever a file is created or a directory is moved. The
rlocate kernel module can be compiled only with Linux 2.6 kernels.
Changes: install-cron.sh.in was moved to the src/ dir. Rules for Debian
were fixed and a double free error that occurred during updating of the
database was fixed.
