[001] - AgileWiki 3.4.2.0
by Bill la Forge (http://freshmeat.net/users/laforge49/)
Sun, Sep 17th 2006 04:22
Database
Documentation
Information Management
About: AgileWiki is a Java-based wiki that provides a virtual wiki for
each registered user, complete with access control and versioning. The
backend includes a built-in database (which uses flat files) and
communicates via RMI to either a Servlet (packaged as a WAR file) or to a
Swing client. AgileWiki is also both an application platform and a
knowledge management system.
Changes: Users can now create their own custom tables, which is a
significant step towards the use of AgileWiki as an application platform.
Work has also continued on semantic inferencing, but it has not yet
progressed to the point where it is usable.

[002] - Backup Manager 0.7.5 (Development)
by Alexis SUKRIEH (http://freshmeat.net/users/sukria/)
Sun, Sep 17th 2006 06:14
About: Backup Manager is a tool for generating archives easily. It is
designed for those who don't want an obfuscated tool for backing up their
system. It can make tar, tar.gz, tar.bz2, and zip archives, can perform
incremental backups, and can upload archives to remote hosts with FTP,
SSH, or RSYNC. It can be run in a parallel mode with different
configuration files. The configuration file is simple to understand. The
backup process can also be customized thanks to hook scripts.
Changes: This release provides a couple of new features: support for lzma
archives, encryption of local archives with GPG, and support for FTP
transfers over TLS. This release also comes with lots of bugfixes. This is
meant to be the last development version before the next stable release.

About: Beobachter is a file monitor, usually used to watch log files. It
has a Java Swing interface that allows the user to customize the
highlighting of the logs depending on the log type. It is a very simple,
multi-platform, fast, and practical tool.
Changes: The color chooser now has a special preview panel. Select
all/Copy now appears disabled when no internal frame is present. New
Find/ Find next options were added to the Edit menu. The preferences
dialog allow you to change the default LAF of the application. The
language option in the preferences dialog now shows a better description
of each language (e.g. "es_ES" has been replaced with "Spanish (Spain)").
All dialogs have better behaviour when resizing. There are new
translations. The new ANT file allows developers to compile the
application without an IDE. There are minor bugfixes.

Artistic Software
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Analysis
About: Breakage is a drum machine with unusual real time programming and
performance. Breakage uses neural networks and matrix operations for
composition above the note level, unlike traditional step sequencers which
edit one note at time.
Changes: This release has a new channel hold feature. When held, a
channel's data can't be changed. The sample browser has a scrollbar, the
help system's text is clearer and more complete, the left and right arrow
keys don't cause a shift if you're in a text box, and channel names are
correct on resizing (names were being shown incorrectly when samples
weren't loaded).

Sun, Sep 17th 2006 23:14
System :: Systems Administration
About: cpuid dumps detailed information about the CPU(s) gathered from
the CPUID instruction, and also determines the exact model of CPU (s).
Changes: The -i option was made the default because of the unreliable
CPUID kernel module. The -k option was added to get the previous behavior.
A change was made to allow the i386 build to work on x86_64 systems.

Database
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Indexing/Search
About: DBSight is a J2EE search platform for rapidly developing search
engines on any relational database, for both beginners and experts. It's
scalable, easy to create, and fast to search. It runs on any

systems. It's based on the high-performance Lucene API. All parameters are
configurable through Web UI for configuring data retrieval, content
indexing, and displaying templates.
Changes: An XML and JSON result template was added. Multiple range
searching is supported with "+" and "-". When index hot-switching, loading
the temporary index into memory is avoided. The UnStored type can be
searched now. Duplicated records are avoided when incremental indexing and
a scheduled job are recreating the index.

[013] - Firewall Builder 2.1.6 (Beta)
by Vadim Kurland (http://freshmeat.net/users/vkurland/)
Sun, Sep 17th 2006 23:19
System :: Networking :: Firewalls
About: Firewall Builder consists of a GUI and set of policy compilers for
various firewall platforms. It helps users maintain a database of objects
and allows policy editing using simple drag-and-drop operations. The GUI
and policy compilers are completely independent, which provides for a
consistent abstract model and the same GUI for different firewall
platforms. It currently supports iptables, ipfilter, ipfw, OpenBSD pf,
Cisco PIX, and FWSM.
Changes: The GUI now works much faster with very large data files
(thousands of objects). The "Where used" menu item has been added, which
quickly finds and shows all groups and firewall rules that reference a
given object. The confirmation dialog that is shown when the user tries to
delete an object also shows all groups and rules that use it. The
compile/install dialog is now an independent window instead of a modal
dialog. The user can work with policy and objects while compilation or
installation is going on. The user can inspect the rules after failed
compilation while still having compiler errors on screen.

Sun, Sep 17th 2006 11:50
System :: Operating System Kernels
System :: Operating System Kernels :: Linux
About: Kernel Mode Linux is a technology which enables the execution of
user programs in a kernel mode. In Kernel Mode Linux, user programs can
access kernel address space directly. Unlike kernel modules, user programs
are executed as ordinary processes (except for their privilege level), so
scheduling and paging are performed as usual. Although it seems dangerous,
the safety of the kernel can be ensured through such methods as static type
checking, software fault isolation, and so forth.
Changes: A new config option for disabling the chroot check was
introduced.

functions (spectrograms, sonagrams, pitch determination) are underway or
partially done.
Changes: This relase implements a small widget that shows the current
selection position and the selection borders, plus a context menu for the
signal widget (right mouse button). The file open dialog has been improved
to show "All Files" and "All Supported Files". There are bugfixes in the
handling of mouse selection and in the record plugin.

About: MicroNova YUZU is an EL-based JSP tag library designed to augment
JSTL and transform JSP into a powerful XML-style "scripting language"
(compatible with both JSP 1.2 and 2.0). Features include: stackable
(nestable beyond tagfile boundaries) tags, nestable/encodable map with XML
support, "codec" functions, structured param with file upload/select/radio
support, "subroutine" call returning non-string Object, dynamic embedded
EL pattern evaluation for regular text and SQL queries, HTTP client and
response control, an HTML-to-DOM parser, multipart email and mailbox,
dynamic method invocation/iterator/map/resource message map, and more. All
YUZU tags follow a single behavioral pattern (prepare, import, default,
process, assign, export) for ease of learning and extension.
Changes: This release makes m:value tag stackable. It adds 'value="*"'
behaviour, System:wait and System:notifyAll codecs, and _JSP:flush and
_JSP:clear codecs. Type:reverse, Type:rotate, and Type:shuffle codecs have
been registered. m:throw documentation has been fixed.

Changes: A bug in the close button in the About box was fixed. Drive
selection is now available under Win32 platforms, which means a new
dependency on pyWin32. If the TreeView in the Status window would be
empty, a "No changes" message is displayed. A failure of setup.py install
on Win32 was fixed.

characters "Hyphen" (U+2010), "Minus" (U+2212), and "Hyphen-Minus"
(U+002D, ASCII Minus) into the ASCII minus sign, to make them equal for
comparisons. You can also strip marking characters or marks of composed
characters (accents, diaeresis, etc.).
