can only access and modify users, tests, and questions within the
restricted sub-nodes. This release has been updated for JBoss 4.2.0 GA. An
updated JDBC driver is provided to support MySQL 5.x.

Thu, Jul 5th 2007 05:50
Internet :: Log Analysis
Security
System :: Logging
About: devialog is a behavior/anomaly/signature-based syslog intrusion
detection system which can detect new, unknown attacks. It fits
comfortably in a heterogeneous Unix/Linux/*BSD environment at the core of
a central syslog server. devialog generates its own signatures and acts
upon anomalies as configured by the system administrator. In addition,
devialog can function as a traditional syslog parsing utility in which
known signatures trigger actions.
Changes: Bug fixes include better handling of lines with some special
characters. A timing error was fixed within alert generation: sometimes
alerts would be sent inadvertently based on the timing of a new log
arriving as an alert was sent out in specific high-volume log situations.
Altered signature generation creates more exact regular expressions.

Internet
About: GeoServer connects your information to the Geospatial Web. With
GeoServer, you can publish and edit data using open standards. Your
information is made available in a large variety of formats as maps/images
or actual geospatial data. GeoServer's transactional capabilities offer
robust support for shared editing. It supports WFS-T and WMS open
protocols from the OGC to produce JPEG, PNG, SVG, KML/KMZ, GML, PDF,
Shapefiles, and more. It is built on the GeoTools2 Java GIS toolkit.
Changes: This release includes full WFS 1.1 support, GeoRSS as a new
output format, many KML improvements, including superoverlays (with the
ability to reference a remote TileCache instance) and templated output,
and a new integrated Google maps demo. It also integrates Acegi, a great
security subsystem. The other big piece is versioning support in the WFS,
so one can do history, diffs, and rollbacks on edited geographic features.
There are a number of small improvements as well, including syntax
highlighting in SLD editing and an improved preview window for sample
requests.

by Lorenzo Bettini (http://freshmeat.net/users/bettini/)
Thu, Jul 5th 2007 11:09
Software Development
Utilities
About: GNU gengetopt takes a simple description of arguments and
generates a C function that uses the GNU getopt_long(3) function to
parse and validate the options. It is perfect if you are too lazy to
write all that is required to call getopt_long(3), or need to use many
options. The generated code also works with autoconf or automake.
Changes: This release fixes some bugs when --include-getopt is specified.
In help output, a section is not generated if all its options are hidden.
The option --default-optional, which allows specifying that all options
are by default optional, was added. A bug corrupting memory when using
args entry in the .ggo file was fixed.

Thu, Jul 5th 2007 05:09
Software Development :: Compilers
Software Development :: Interpreters
Software Development :: Libraries
About: GNU Smalltalk is a free implementation of the Smalltalk-80
language.
Changes: There is now a conversion tool from the old syntax to the new one
introduced in 2.95a. Continuations and generators have moved to the base
image. The test suite covers the iconv package too. The package manager
has been mostly rewritten and now installs packages as ".star" (Smalltalk
archive) compressed files. All service scripts supplied with GNU Smalltalk
are now written in Smalltalk exclusively, and the file handling class
libraries were improved heavily as a result. GNU Smalltalk now needs
InfoZIP (zip/unzip) to be installed on the machine where it is running.

[024] - gpsdings 0.2
by ringler (http://freshmeat.net/users/ringler/)
Thu, Jul 5th 2007 11:20
Scientific/Engineering :: Geographical
About: GPSdings is a Java 1.5 command line tool for the manipulation and
analysis of track and waypoint data recorded with a GPS receiver. It
comprises the following applications: exifloc (determines the geolocation
of digital camera pictures from a GPS track), trackanalyzer (analyzes and
plots GPS tracks), gpxkml (converts GPX to KML), googlemap (converts GPX
to Google Maps API Javascript), and gpxovl (converts between GPX and OVL
formats).
Changes: The functionality of the exifloc and trackanalyzer components has
been extended. Gpsdings can now calculate additional quantities like
bearing and slope, can create interactive SVG plots, and can produce KML
tracks colored by altitude, speed, etc. While it used to need an external
binary, Gpsdings can now directly write GPS information to the EXIF
headers of digital photographs.

Software Development :: Code Generators
Software Development :: Compilers
About: Low-Level Virtual Machine (LLVM) is a compiler infrastructure
designed for compile-time, link-time, run-time, and "idle-time"
optimization of programs from arbitrary programming languages. It
currently supports compilation of C and C++ programs, using front-ends
derived from GCC 3.4 and 4.0.1. There is a demonstration front end,
Stacker, which provides a simple Forth-like language. Work is currently
under way to provide a Java class file front-end, as well as other
significant improvements.
Changes: In this version, the ARM backend is stable and fully supported,
x86 backend supports MMX and PIC, and an MSIL (.NET) backend was added. A
new loop rotation pass was added, and PassManager and loop strength
reduction pass were improved. Integer types are now signless and can
support arbitrary bitwidths. Support for software floating point was
added, and inline assembly support is improved. Improved DWARF debug
information and support for zero-cost DWARF exception handling are now
available. There are major changes in the API and the bytecode format.

Statistics. The "StatementsStructure" portlet was added. In the general
accounting class diagram, all boolean values are now represented as either
"yes" or "no".

Thu, Jul 5th 2007 02:19
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: rsyslog now supports dynamic file names in selector lines. With
that, log files can be automatically created based on sending host, time
of reception, and any other message property. Also, control over file
creation modes has been improved. There are some minor improvements. This

Security
Security :: Cryptography
System :: Networking
About: strongSwan is a complete IPsec and IKEv1 implementation for Linux
2.4 and 2.6 kernels. It also fully supports the new IKEv2 protocol with
Linux 2.6 kernels. It interoperates in both IKEv1 and IKEv2 mode with most
other IPsec-based VPN products. The focus of the strongSwan project is on
strong authentication mechanisms using X.509 public key certificates and
optional secure storage of private keys on smartcards through a
standardized PKCS#11 interface. A unique feature is the use of X.509
attribute certificates to implement advanced access control schemes based
on group memberships.
Changes: Support of the IKEv2-based MOBIKE protocol (RFC 4555) allows
dynamic IP address changes and multi-homing without re-establishing the
IPsec tunnels. For IKEv1, the introduction of the rightallowany=yes option
or, as an alternative, the right=%peer.foo.bar wildcard improves the
re-establishment of IPsec connections after a dynamic address change in a
host which registers its address with DynDNS.

About: Xapian is a search engine library, scalable to collections
containing hundreds of millions of documents. It's written in C++ with
bindings for Perl, Python, PHP, Java, Tcl, C#, and Ruby. It is a highly
adaptable toolkit that allows developers to easily add advanced indexing
and search facilities to their own applications. It supports the
Probabilistic Information Retrieval model and also a rich set of boolean
query operators. Omega is a Web search application built upon the Xapian
library. It can index a Web server's document tree (including HTML, PDF,
OpenOffice, MS Word/Excel/Powerpoint/Works, WordPerfect, RTF, PS, etc.),
or data exported from arbitrary sources (e.g. SQL databases).
Changes: This release adds support for spelling correction and synonym
expansion. Some Btree tables are now optional, so opening a database is
slightly quicker. The Xapian::NumberValueRangeProcessor class has been
reworked to fix a design flaw. A few bugs have been fixed. Performance was
improved in several cases.
