[002] - ATA over Ethernet driver 46 (For Linux 2.6)
  by Ed Cashin at Coraid (http://freshmeat.net/users/ecashinCoraid/)
  Thu, Feb 15th 2007 10:47

System :: Archiving :: Backup
System :: Archiving :: Mirroring
System :: Operating System Kernels :: Linux

About: This driver allows the Linux kernel to use the ATA over Ethernet
(AoE) network protocol. Using AoE, a Linux system can use AoE block
devices like EtherDrive (R) storage blades. The block devices appear as
local device nodes (e.g. /dev/etherd/e0.0).

Changes: aoetools version 14 is bundled with the aoe driver. Compatibility
with XFS for AoE on network cards without scatter gather support was added.
The EtherDrive HOWTO was updated. The ed command is no longer used by the
Makefile. Network buffers are now allocated on demand. Load balancing
across multiple AoE paths was improved. A feature whereby unused or absent
devices may be removed was added. An SMP race condition in multi-path AoE
discovery was fixed.

Office/Business
Office/Business :: CRM
Office/Business :: Scheduling

About: Auto Project Planner automatically calculates a proper project plan
based on your effort estimations and the due dates you have in mind. A list
of tasks and a list of employees can be defined. Tasks can be assigned to
one or more employees. It is also possible to define a maximum percentage
value an employee can/should work on a task. Public holidays, leaves,
weekly working hours, and more parameters can be specified and are
considered in the calculation. According to this input, the software
computes time plans by minimizing the MSE (mean squared error) between
expected and computed end dates.

  Thu, Feb 15th 2007 23:27



About: Internet DJ console is a graphical shoutcast/icecast client that
runs under GTK+ and the JACK audio connection kit. In short, it's an
Internet radio app for making a live radio show or podcast. Features
include two main media players with a crossfader, a jingle player,
microphone signal processing (compressor and noise gate), IRC track
announcements with X-Chat, an automatic stream shut-off timer, MP3 or Ogg
streaming and recording at various bit rates, aux input for connecting
external JACK aware applications, and audio level meters.

Changes: A dependancy bug workaround was added so that a seek to the last
second of audio of a track will not result in a crash. An event driven
commands feature was added in the Prefs, mainly for controlling the mixer.
A pop-up context menu was added to the prefs, server, jingles, and window
open buttons, containing a close option. The locale in the mixer and
server modules is now forced to "C" to ensure proper operation of sscanf
when faced with floating point numbers. A playback speed control was added
for main media players.

[025] - Linux Bluetooth Remote Control 0.2 
  by Matthias Bläsing (http://freshmeat.net/users/matthiasblaesing/)
  Thu, Feb 15th 2007 06:39



About: Linux Bluetooth Remote Control (LBRC) is a remote control program
that allows a Linux computer to be controlled by a J2ME device via
Bluetooth. It is divided into a server part that runs on the computer and
reacts to input events and a client part that runs on the J2ME device. The
J2ME client sends the device's keycodes, which are translated to
keystrokes, mouse movements, mouse clicks, or other input events on the
controlled computer. 

Changes: The server part was split into a core part, responsible for the
receiving and injection of the keycodes, and a GUI part. The communication
is done via DBUS. A configuration file for the location of the uinput
device and default profile was added. Some minor code cleanups were done
(removing some hardcoded paths). The original BlueRemote was renamed to
LBRC.

[027] - Memcache Engine for MySQL 0.4 
  by Brian Aker (http://freshmeat.net/users/briantangentorg/)
  Thu, Feb 15th 2007 14:23



About: The memcache_engine allows memcache to work as a storage engine to
MySQL. This means that you can SELECT/UPDATE/ INSERTE/DELETE from it as
though it is a table in MySQL. This is very experimental.

Changes: Support has been added for packed rows (uses less memory).
Support has been fixed for IN() operations. A bug in UPDATE when ORDER BY
was given has been fixed.

  by igoriii (http://freshmeat.net/users/igoriii/)
  Thu, Feb 15th 2007 06:37

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: HTTP Servers

About: mod_jail is an Apache module that supports 1.3.x and 2.0.x
branches. It is similar to mod_chroot, but uses FreeBSD's specific system
call "jail", which is more secure than chroot. Thus, it is intended to run
on FreeBSD only. This module allows you to run Apache in a secure jail
easily, without creating a real jail environment containing a copy of
/lib, /libexec, /usr/lib, etc. Also, it is able to change the securelevel
within a created jail prison. 

Changes: There is now one set of source code that supports both Apache
1.3.x and 2.0.x.

[058] - WinFF 0.28

Desktop Environment :: Gnome
Multimedia :: Video :: Conversion

About: WinFF is a cross platform batch GUI for FFmpeg. WinFF processes
multiple files in multiple formats at one time. For example, it will
convert MPEG, FLV, and MOV files into AVI files all at once. 

Changes: The ability to import and export presets to files was added. The
"remove" button now removes multiple files at once. If only one file is
present in the file list, the play button plays it without being selected.
A more compact window is used for lower screen resolutions.
