file and the ability to change the encoding of a file. The date is kept
when saving a file to be able to detect modifications of a file while it
is edited in chamo. Some buffer attributes are kept in the chamo files,
like the encoding and the mode. Cameleon does not act as server by
default, since the cam_start_server command was added. OCaml-RSS is now
included in Cameleon.

[009] - Dnsmasq 2.37
by Simon Kelley (http://freshmeat.net/users/simonkelley/)
Mon, Feb 5th 2007 08:27

Internet :: Name Service (DNS)

About: Dnsmasq is a lightweight, easy to configure DNS forwarder and DHCP
server. It is designed to provide DNS and (optionally) DHCP to a small
network. It can serve the names of local machines which are not in the
global DNS. The DHCP server integrates with the DNS server and allows
machines with DHCP-allocated addresses to appear in the DNS with names
configured either in each host or in a central configuration file. Dnsmasq
supports static and dynamic DHCP leases and BOOTP/TFTP for network booting
of diskless machines.

Changes: This release fixes a regression in version 2.36 which made the
--bogus-nxdomain flag unreliable and sometimes stopped dnsmasq from
caching DNS queries effectively. This release adds some performance tuning
and a LIMITS section in the man page which gives guidance on performance
under heavy load. It also improves DHCP over Firewire and DHCP over
InfinBand. The method for handling vendor-class encapsulated DHCP options
has been simplified.

[012] - Enhanced TightVNC Viewer 1.0.11
by Karl Runge (http://freshmeat.net/users/runge/)
Mon, Feb 5th 2007 11:15

Desktop Environment :: Tools

About: The Enhanced TightVNC Viewer package is part of the x11vnc VNC
server project. It provides a native VNC viewer that takes advantage of
new features in x11vnc, e.g. cursor alpha blending and automatic SSL
tunnelling. Some features apply to any VNC server, e.g. automatic SSH
tunnelling. Another goal is to provide a package that conveniently bundles
everything needed for the user to have the enhanced viewer running quickly.
This includes pre-built binaries of the viewer and utility programs for
Windows and many Unix variants, and a GUI to configure and launch the
viewer. The short name for this project is "ssvnc", for SSL/SSH VNC
viewer.

Changes: Many new features and fixes to the Unix TightVNC Viewer appear in
this release. RealVNC ZRLE compression support has been added, along with a
16bpp mode for 32bpp displays and very low 64- and 8-color modes for 8bpp.
The -ycrop option is for use with x11vnc's client side caching to hide the
pixel cache region from view. It is applied automatically when use of the
caching is detected. The popup menu has been expanded to allow changing
many settings (color formats, encodings, cursor modes, and view-only) on
the fly without having to restart the viewer. Fullscreen toggling now
works on KDE.

[013] - fastutil 5.0.6
by Sebastiano Vigna (http://freshmeat.net/users/vigna/)
Mon, Feb 5th 2007 14:53

Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries

About: fastutil extends the Java Collections Framework by providing
type-specific maps, sets, lists, and queues for Java with a small memory
footprint and fast access and insertion; it also includes a fast I/O API
for binary and text files. The classes implement their standard
counterpart interfaces (e.g., Map for maps) and can be plugged into
existing code. Besides the usual features, fastutil provides
reference-based containers (which do not use equals() to compare objects)
and linked structures. Most iterators provided by fastutil classes are
bidirectional, or even implement the standard list iterator interface.

Changes: This release adds a better FastBufferedInputStream to fix
problems with standard Java input streams. A new front() method retrieves
elements equal to the top from queues.

[015] - Gmsh 2.0.0
by Christophe Geuzaine (http://freshmeat.net/users/geuz/)
Mon, Feb 5th 2007 08:20

Multimedia :: Graphics :: 3D Modeling
Scientific/Engineering
Scientific/Engineering :: Mathematics

About: Gmsh is an automatic 3D finite element grid generator (primarily
Delaunay) with built-in CAD and post-processing facilities. Its design
goal is to provide a simple meshing tool for academic problems with
parametric input and advanced visualization capabilities. It is built
around four modules: geometry, mesh, solver, and post-processing. The
specification of any input to these modules is done either interactively
using the graphical user interface (based on FLTK and OpenGL) or in ASCII
text files using Gmsh's own scripting language.

Changes: This release adds support for STEP, IGES, and native OpenCascade
models. It also includes a brand new geometry and mesh graphics pipeline,
a new mesh I/O layer (with support for industry-standard UNV, BDF, and STL
files), and an improved graphical interface (with immediate application of
changes in the option panels and a reworked visibility browser). The
release also adds support for incomplete second order elements (8-node
quads, 20-node hexas, etc.), offscreen rendering, and scalable vector
graphics (SVG) output.

About: GNU Transport Layer Security Library is a library which implements
a secure layer over a reliable transport layer such as TCP/IP. It
implements the TLS 1.1 and SSL 3.0 protocols, accompanied with
authentication methods such as X.509, OpenPGP, and SRP.

Changes: Support for Proxy Certificates as per RFC 3820 were added. The
--generate-proxy option was added to certtool. certtool --certificate-info
now prints information for Proxy Certificates. New APIs were added to set
proxy subject names and get or set a proxy cert extension. Parsing of
pathLenConstraints in BasicConstraints with missing CA was fixed. A
self-test was added to test for regressions of pathLenConstraint. Certtool
now prints times in UTC when printing certificate/CRL info. Importing of
ASCII armored OpenPGP keys was fixed.

Database :: Front-Ends
Information Management
Internet :: Log Analysis

About: ht://Miner's PHP middleware is a set of classes that build an
abstraction layer between applications and ht://Miner's data warehouse.
The objective is to simplify the creation of PHP driven applications for
querying Web usage data stored in the database. It requires ht://Miner.

Changes: This release has dramatically improved access times to aggregated
data through the usage of the new multiple-level summarization framework
that has been introduced by ht://Miner 0.5.0. A very efficient mechanism
of summary navigation which reduces the time of retrieval of aggregated
data by up to 1000 times (in the most complicated scenarios) has been
implemented. A few other important features have been introduced, such as
"year reporting" and run-time specification of which metrics to be
retrieved from the data warehouse. Support for PostgreSQL 8.2.x has been
added.

[019] - Inkscape 0.45
by Bryce Harrington (http://freshmeat.net/users/bryce/)
Mon, Feb 5th 2007 14:52

Artistic Software
Desktop Environment :: Gnome
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Editors :: Vector-Based

About: Inkscape is a drawing tool with capabilities similar to
Illustrator, Freehand, and CorelDraw that uses the W3C standard scalable
vector graphics format (SVG). The supported SVG features include basic
shapes, paths, text, markers, clones, alpha blending, transforms,
gradients, and grouping. In addition, it supports Creative Commons
meta-data, node-editing, layers, complex path operations, text-on-path,
and SVG XML editing. It also imports several formats like EPS, Postscript,
JPEG, PNG, BMP, and TIFF and exports PNG as well as multiple vector-based
formats.

Changes: This release adds a new Gaussian Blur SVG filter. This allows you
to softly and naturally blur any Inkscape objects, and enables a wide range
of photorealistic effects such as shading, drop shadows, glows, etc. A
history dialog allows you to browse your change history. There have been
performance improvements to rendering speed, on the order of 2-3% in
general. Compositing quality is also improved through the removal of
banding seen in gradients.

Office/Business
Office/Business :: Financial :: Accounting
Office/Business :: Groupware

About: Open Blue Lab is a RAD framework (MDA based) that transforms UML
models in Web 2.0 portal applications without writing code. It is
currently being used to develop a full Web ERP from scratch. Portal layout
may be configured through the UI, and Ajax and HTML-based forms are
automatically built from XML widget definitions, which may be generated on
the fly from a UML model that describes your information system. Widgets
are dynamically populated, making them data-aware automatically at run
time with no need to code any database interaction. This framework allows
you to focus on Information System design, with forms and portal
architecture being generated automatically.

Changes: The generator has been improved. Forms are opened outside the
normal window, which permits a more intuitive style of navigation. AJAX
use makes editing data even easier. JasperReport integration permits the
user to export data easily in PDF format.

Mon, Feb 5th 2007 08:33

Multimedia :: Graphics
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Capture :: Digital Camera
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Viewers

About: Qtpfsgui is a graphical user interface that enables users to work
on HDR images. Supported operations include: creations of a HDR file from
a set of images of a scene taken at different exposure settings,
tone-mapping an HDR image into a common LDR image format (e.g JPEG or
PNG), and loading, saving, and rotating existing HDR images. In some ways,
the program is a open source clone of Photomatix.

Changes: Drastic changes were made in the code layout and design. These
are intended to reduce memory usage. The EXIF tag check was improved, so
if EXIF data is not found, the user is warned and operation is aborted. A
segmentation fault that happens when compiling in Linux (SUSE 10.2)
against recent versions of Qt4 was fixed. The "fit to window" option now
keeps the image ratio. Computation of Durand va fftw3 was made faster. The
only LDR image format supported is now JPEG.

[049] - rsyslog 1.13.1 (Development)
by Rainer Gerhards (http://freshmeat.net/users/rgerhards/)
Mon, Feb 5th 2007 06:54

System :: Logging

About: Rsyslog is an enhanced multi-threaded syslogd. Among other
features, it offers support for reliable syslog over TCP and RFC 3195,
writing to MySQL databases, fully configurable output formats (including
great timestamps), the ability to filter on any part of the syslog
message, and on-the-wire message compression. It is designed as a drop-in
replacement for stock syslogd and thus is able to work with the same
configuration file syntax. Of course, some enhanced features require
changing the configuration file, but in general, this should be fairly
easy.

Changes: This is primarily a bugfix and compatibility release. Most
importantly, a bug was fixed that caused the database logging capabilities
to become disabled when support for compressed syslog was enabled. Also, an
issue with newer versions of the MySQL client library has been solved. The
new -e option has been added, which supports logging of all messages, even
if they are identical. Some performance enhancements have also been made.
There is no need to update to this version if you have 1.13.0 installed
and do not experience any problems.

metadata and exports CSV, HTML, Bibtex, Bibtexml, ONIX, and PilotDB.
Entries may be imported directly from Amazon.com, imdb.com, any z39.50
bibliographic server, PubMed, or an external script.

Changes: Secondary and tertiary sorting was fixed. A bug that caused
z39.50 results to be dropped was fixed. Relative URLs are now compared
correctly in file catalogs. The CDDB import was updated to insert EXTD
data into the comments field and category as a keyword. Files downloaded
using the NewStuff dialog are uninstalled cleanly. Disc number is taken
into account for MP3, Ogg, and flac files when importing audio file
metadata.

[062] - UMLGraph 4.6
by Diomidis Spinellis (http://freshmeat.net/users/diomidis/)
Mon, Feb 5th 2007 07:02

Multimedia :: Graphics :: Editors :: Vector-Based
Software Development :: Documentation

About: UMLGraph facilitates the declarative specification and drawing of
UML class and sequence diagrams. One can specify a class design using the
Java syntax complemented by Javadoc tags. Running the UmlGraph doclet on
the specification generates a Graphviz diagram specification that can be
automatically processed to create Postscript, GIF, SVG, JPEG, fig, or
Framemaker drawings. Similarly, sequence diagrams are specified using
declarative pic macros and compiled with the GNU plotutils pic2plot
program into a PNG, PNM, (pseudo) GIF, SVG, AI, Postscript, CGM, FIG, PCL,
HPGL, Regis, or TEK drawing.

Changes: This version introduces a portability fix so that UmlGraphDoc can
now run again under Unix. This fixes a serious bug introduced in version
4.5.
