for installation.
Changes: The GUI was totally recreated. An InfoPanel and search engine
were added. MP3 files can be played online without downloading them.
Images can be viewed online as a diaporama inside a given folder. Multiple
file upload monitoring was improved. A start screen and load progress were
added. A Recycle Bin folder was added.

can both read and update older Lucene indexes. Adding to an index with an
older format will cause it to be converted to the newer format.

Software Development :: Libraries
Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
About: Gochacha is a functional replacement for BeanUtils, allowing you to
manipulate beans using strings. Gochacha, however, is much simpler because
it takes advantage of Java 1.5 autoboxing. It also foregoes BeanUtils'
singleton 'registry' of transformers for a context-like approach where the
calling application manages state.
Changes: The Java docs were updated. Javadocs are included in the build.
Support for retro-fitting BeanUtils converters is included.

Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes
Text Processing :: Filters
About: HTML Purifier is PHP software for HTML filtering. It is an
alternative to BBCode or other obscure custom markup languages. It will
not only remove all malicious code (XSS), but will also make sure the HTML
is standards compliant.
Changes: HTML Purifier 2.0 is the culmination of two major architectural
changes. The first is Tidy, which enables HTML Purifier to both natively
support deprecated elements and also convert them to standards-compliant
alternatives. The second is the Advanced API, which enables users to
create new elements and attributes with ease. Keeping in line with a
commitment to high quality, there are also five esoteric bugfixes and a
plethora of subtle improvements that enhance the library.

[034] - inotail 0.4
by Tobias Klauser (http://freshmeat.net/users/tklauser/)
Wed, Jun 20th 2007 07:43
About: inotail is a replacement for the 'tail' program found in the base
installation of every Linux/Unix system. It makes use of the inotify
infrastructure in recent versions of the Linux kernel to speed up tailing
files in the follow mode (the '-f' option). Standard tail polls the file
every second by default, while inotail listens to special events sent by
the kernel through the inotify API to determine whether a file needs to be
reread.
Changes: Buffers for filesystem I/O are allocated dynamically to use the
optimal size reported by the underlying filesystem. Correct handling of
interrupting signals has been added.

by jaimeghirelli (http://freshmeat.net/users/jaimeghirelli/)
Wed, Jun 20th 2007 05:27
About: Linux LiveCD Router allows you to share and firewall your broadband
connection and use WiFi. It works with DSL, cable modem, T1, and dial-up
connections and supports inexpensive hardware such as USB and PCMCIA WiFi
and ethernet cards. It does not require a hard disk. It is ideal for high
speed (5 Mbps+) ADSL lines, since most WAN ports on integrated routers do
not support speeds higher than 5 Mbps.
Changes: Startup does not automatically look for a floppy drive (this
caused problems on some newer motherboards). Configuration settings can be
saved to USB drives or hard disks. There are minor bugfixes. A TUN module
and beta code fonspot have been added from fon.es.

System :: Archiving :: Compression
System :: Installation/Setup
About: mkCDrec (Make CD-ROM Recovery) makes a bootable (El Torito)
disaster recovery image, including backups of the Linux system to one or
more CD-ROM(s) (multi-volume sets). Otherwise, the backups can be stored
on another disk, NFS/CIFS disk, or (remote) tape. After a disk crash or
system intrusion, the system can be booted from the CD-ROM and one can
restore the complete system as it was. It also features disk cloning,
which allows one to restore a disk to another disk (the destination disk
does not have to be of the same size, as it calculates the partition
layout itself). Currently, ext2, ext3, minix, MS-DOS, FAT, VFAT, Reiserfs,
XFS, and JFS filesystems are supported. It can restore disks in Software
RAID and LVM mode. It supports the One Button Disaster Recovery (OBDR)
mode, which simulates a bootable CD-ROM on tape.
Changes: Busybox was upgraded from version 1.1.1 to 1.4.2. Some minor bugs
were fixed. Mandriva 2007, CentOS 5, and RHEL 4 are supported as well.

also provided to allow you to acknowlege problems and disable
notifications from an internet-ready cellphone.
Changes: Support was added for soft passive host checks, initial non-UP/OK
states, and enhanced timeperiod definitions that should make rotation
on-call schedules much easier to define. Bugs were fixed regarding the
processing of multiple check results, multiple host notifications, and
plugin output.

About: The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is used to synchronize the time of
a computer client or server to another server or reference time source,
such as a radio or satellite receiver or modem. It provides client
accuracies typically within a millisecond on LANs and up to a few tens of
milliseconds on WANs relative to a primary server synchronized to
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) via a Global Positioning Service (GPS)
receiver, for example.
Changes: This release fixes a multicast mode authentication problem, an
error in NTP packet handling on Windows that could lead to ntpd crashing,
and several other minor bugs. Handling of multicast interfaces and logging
configuration were improved. The required versions of autogen and libopts

About: Open Blue Lab is a modular ERP, built on a plugin architecture.
Each business domain (such as Groupware, Financial, HCM, PLM, or SCM) is
separated into subdomains which are implemented through plugins. This
architecture permits you to choose only the components that suit your
needs. Each plugin is certified Zero Code, configurable through a GUI, and
may be adapted through the UML models provided.
Changes: Many tools were created to manage a model simply. The first tool
added is for searching in a set of OBL files. If you search a particular
class or a package in a folder, you just select the folder and fill the
regular expression. The second tool is interesting because it permits the
user to generate HTML documentation from an REF file. The documentation
generated looks like the javadoc and contains all classes and all
packages. The user can now navigate simply in the global model and export
an OBL model.

Desktop Environment :: Tools
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
Software Development :: User Interfaces
About: The Sanaware Java Docking library allows developers to easily
manage dynamic dragging of Swing components. Static applications can be
turned into flexible environments that users can tune to their needs and
preferences. The library provides all the necessary components, ranging
from simple draggable buttons in toolbars all the way to multiple floating
frames in complex layouts.
Changes: This version adds a number of new features. Notably, buttons and
minimized windows can be dragged around in their tool bar or to other tool
bars. Furthermore, tool bars can be docked at borders or can be made
floating. Dockable components can now have buttons for minimizing and
maximizing.

the "outdated" persistent state, includes a mechanism to detect when a new
version of itself has been installed (rebuilding the persistent database
accordingly), sorts the package lists giving priority to glibc packages
during upgrades, and adds a "local-search" command to search for files in
local packages.

Wed, Jun 20th 2007 05:51
Scientific/Engineering :: Mathematics
Software Development :: Libraries
About: SymPy is a symbolic manipulation package, written in pure Python.
Its aim is to become a full featured CAS in Python, while keeping the code
as simple as possible in order to be comprehensible and easily extensible.
Currently, Sympy has only around 1600 lines of code (including comments),
and its capabilities include basic arithmetics, basic simplification,
series expansion, functions (exp, ln, sin, cos, tan, etc.),
differentiation, integration (currently it can do only very simple
integrals), basic substitution, arbitrary precision integers and
rationals, standard (Python) floats, basic complex numbers, and symbolic
limits.
Changes: This release adds determinants, groebner bases, multivariate
division, gcd, fraction free Gaussian elimination, the resultant of
polynomials, graphing support, a geometry module, prime numbers, and
special functions (factorials). The is_commutative argument was renamed to
commutative, and is_dummy was renamed to dummy. MathML was refactored and
renamed to mathml and now uses xml.dom.minidom. ratsimp() was added to
sympy.modules.simplify for simplifying fractions. Pretty printing was
added. infty was renamed to oo. Experimental plotting support was added
via matplotlib.

Changes: Problems with pocount --csv were fixed. The timezone offset was
calculated to cater for the differences bewteen Windows and Linux. oo2po
was fixed, as it caused broken PO files in some cases. New PO files are
ensured to be initialized if new POT files were introduced. Some updates
were made to quality checks, including introducing some more test
dependencies so that frequently co-occurring errors should happen less
often. Most tools will now also ignore the _darcs directory when looking
for files. The poglossary script is included.

authorized to check out source code. This allows you to delegate the
administration of your Subversion depots. USVN permits easy management of
access restriction on Subversion files.
Changes: The SQLite database is supported. The mysqli adapter is
supported, which solves a crash on Debian etch. 64-bit support was added.
Microsoft Windows is supported. Some possible configuration issues in
installation (regarding mod_dav_svn, mod_rewrite, safe_mode, etc.) are now
detected. Access rights are enabled on the root directory of subversion
repositories. When you create a user, you can create a group with the same
name. A user can be added into a group directly in the group's admin page.
The arrow works in completions. Zend Framework 1.0.0RC2 is used.

by Dan Graham (http://freshmeat.net/users/dgraham/)
Wed, Jun 20th 2007 11:07
Information Management
Office/Business :: Scheduling
About: yeaGTD is an acronym for "yaml encoded approach to getting things
done". It is a script which extracts information from simple text files,
one for each project, and then produces nicely formatted summary reports.
Flexible rules can be used to specify repeated projects. Context, project,
and date views are supported and output can be filtered in a variety of
ways. Output can optionally be printed or sent to standard output in
several formats. Commands are provided for marking tasks complete, opening
files for editing, and backing up project files.
Changes: This release adds a command to display a project file
"cheatsheet". A PDF version is included in the distribution. Create
project now takes a path and uses the root file name as the (temporary)
agenda title. If the path exists, the original file is opened for editing.
Otherwise, a new file is created and opened for editing. The logic for
deciding which date to use for display and for sorting has been improved.
A bug in sorting by date has been fixed.
