System :: Operating System Kernels :: Linux

About: OpenVZ is a modified Linux kernel with additional support for
OpenVZ Virtual Environments (VE, also known as VPS). VEs are isolated,
secure environments on a single physical server, enabling better server
utilization and ensuring that applications do not conflict. Each VE
performs and executes exactly like a stand-alone server; VEs can be
rebooted independently and have root access, users, IP addresses, memory,
processes, files, applications, system libraries, and configuration files.
Due to a single kernel model, OpenVZ has native performance and very high
density. It is the core of Virtuozzo.

Changes: Compilation fixes, driver updates, and other fixes and
improvements.

[030] - Pea-Peach 0.12

  Thu, Sep 28th 2006 04:49

Security :: Cryptography
System :: Archiving
System :: Archiving :: Compression

About: PEA (an acronym for Pack, Encrypt, Authenticate) is OS-portable
archiving software that offers flexible security options (up to AES-EAX
authenticated encryption), deflate based compression, and multi-volume
spanning. It supports its own native .pea archive format for archiving and
extracting, and also supports raw file splitting and joining. Peach is a
graphical frontend for the PEA program. 

Changes: A bug in which CRC64 was only partially saved was fixed. Updating
is recommended. Peach can now save job definition scripts as plain text.
Saved scripts may be used as a starting point for composing Pea-Peach
related scripts. Minor fixes and interface improvements were made. This
version was built with Lazarus 0.9.18. The package for all Windows
versions and the package for 2K through XP were unified in a single build
for all Win32 versions. The Linux GTK1 build has been released as a
gzipped tar archive.

[031] - PostGIS 1.1.4 (Stable)
  by Paul Ramsey (http://freshmeat.net/users/PWRamsey/)
  Thu, Sep 28th 2006 04:14

Database
Database :: Database Engines/Servers

About: PostGIS adds support for geographic objects to the PostgreSQL
object-relational database. In effect, PostGIS "spatially enables" the
PostgreSQL server, allowing it to be used as a backend spatial database
for geographic information systems (GIS), much like ESRI's SDE or Oracle's
Spatial extension. 

Changes: Support for the upcoming PostgreSQL 8.2 release was fixed. A bug
in which the collect() function discarded the SRID of input was fixed. An
SRID match check was added in MakeBox2d and MakeBox3d. The regression
tests were fixed to pass with GEOS-3.0.0.

[032] - Seismic ToolKit O.45 
  by Dominique Reymond (http://freshmeat.net/users/Reymond/)
  Thu, Sep 28th 2006 04:32

Scientific/Engineering

About: Seismic Toolkit is a tool for processing and displaying seismic
signal data in a graphical interface. It reads seismic signals in SAC
format, and provides a variety of signal processing, such as filtering,
spectral analysis, polarisation analysis, time-frequency representation,
Hilbert transform, and singular value decomposition. Some utilities are
included for useful seismological applications, like computation of
Seismic Moment Mo, Mantle magnitude Mm and Moment magnitude Mw, MTPA
spectral analysis, plotting focal mechanisms, computation (and plotting)
of instrumental response from poles and zeros, and some usefull GMT
(Generic Mapping Tool) scripts for plotting signals, responses, and
time-frequency in Postscript files for high quality prints.

Changes: MM_mag, in Utilities Programs, accepts 7 arguments, including
origin time, latitude, longitude, and directory of signals. This greatly
simplifies the way of running the process, instead of changing a
configuration file. A new program aziX (in Utilities), provides a very
easy tool for computing azimuth, distance, and back-azimuth with a simple
list of station names.
