improved: now you can specify the parent item by path and may omit the
relation name in case "child" is used. The path directive allows inlined
relation names, of course.

routines from LAPACK.
Changes: Assertions have been added for improved debugging, and threaded
GEMM performance has improved for cases where two dim < NB. The default
MaxMalloc has been increased to 64MB. Support has been added for building
Windows ATLAS with Intel's ifort and for building on Windows without the
cygwin library. The ability to get cycle accurate timer when using Windows
compiler has been added, POWER4 & P4SSE2 arch defaults are improved, and
the makefiles have been cleaned up.

[009] - Big Faceless Graph Library 2.3.2
by BFO (Big Faceless Organization)
(http://freshmeat.net/users/faceless/)
Mon, Aug 6th 2007 10:19
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Presentation
Software Development :: Libraries
About: The Big Faceless Graph Library is a Java class library for creating
graphs and charts. It is backed by a full 3D engine, allowing you to create
shaded 3D pie, bar, and line graphs as GIF, PDF, PNG, or other image
formats. Its features include transparent backgrounds, extensible axes to
graph dates, currencies, custom fonts, and spline curve fitting. It is
small, fast, and easy to use.
Changes: Display order of markers on a non-3D graph is now deterministic.
Markers, images, and labels on bar series appear in the correct place if
the order of the bars is changed between series or if the series is part
of a stack barseries. A label tag can be made into a hyperlink, and now
accepts attributes such as href and onmouseover. It's possible to cause
the GraphServlet to reject requests based on HTTP headers, via the
"headercheck.N" init-parameters.

[010] - Bitgate Server Software Environment 0.4.3
by Ken Hollis (http://freshmeat.net/users/Tsuichi1/)
Mon, Aug 6th 2007 03:36
Internet
About: Bitgate Server Software Environment aims to build a multi-protocol
environment in which server protocol handlers can be eventually loaded and
unloaded on the fly using a center console or controller Web page. It aims
to have 99.9% uptime, and have high-availability (Java 6) compliance. It
is written in Java 5, and relies completely on Java's I/O functionality to
provide non-blocking support for both SSL and non-SSL sockets
(transparently). All configuration is done via XML files, as this is
easier to maintain. It includes a minimal demonstration HTTP server.
Changes: This is the last release in the 0.4.x series of code. The HTTP
directory code was updated to show truncated filenames, file sizes, and
types in two columns. hashCode to ByteString was implemented so that
HashMaps can be used with ByteStrings as keys. Keep-Alive was implemented
in the HTTP server. A couple of responses to the client from the server
were corrected. 302 redirects were added on directory entries that do not
end in "/".

[016] - Cheese Tracker 0.9.15
by J Phelps (http://freshmeat.net/users/jphelps/)
Mon, Aug 6th 2007 17:45
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Sound Synthesis
About: Cheese Tracker is a program to create module music. It aims to have
an interface and feature set similar to that of Impulse Tracker. It works
on Unix systems and on Windows (using cygwin), but all the interface/audio
code is fully modular and abstracted in individual classes, which should
make the porting of this program to other platforms very easy.
Changes: With the help of libaudiofile, this release supports many formats
that had to be treated as raw in previous versions, and WAV files load
better than in previous versions. Some of the formats now supported
include AIFF/AIFF-C, AU, and .voc. ADPCM-compressed and IEEE
floating-point WAV files can now be loaded correctly, and several bugs
were fixed.

Mail module have been updated to a more consistent and themable look.
Messages marked as Special are now automatically added to a virtual folder
of the same name, making them easier to find. A Preferences option has been
added to whitelist recipients of email that you send, and the Filter Mail

About: Webconverger is a Web kiosk. It is an evolution of the hybrid
client for deployments in places like banks, offices, or Internet cafes
where only Web applications are used. Unlike thin or hybrid clients,
Webconverger is faster and more responsive by providing a Web browser that
runs locally.
Changes: The latest security updates to Iceweasel (Firefox) rebuild
2.0.0.6 have been applied. Previous versions of Webconverger will upgrade
nonetheless with somewhat delayed startups.

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: News/Diary
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Site Management
About: WordPress is a state-of-the-art, semantic, personal publishing
platform with a focus on aesthetics, Web standards, and usability. It was
born out of a desire for an elegant, well-architectured personal
publishing system, and is the official successor to b2/cafelog. While
primarily geared towards functioning as a Weblog, it is also a flexible
CMS capable of managing many types of Web sites. In addition to the basic
Weblog functions, it also has an integrated link manager (e.g. for
blogrolls), XFN support, support for "static" pages, Atom and RSS feeds
for both content and comments, XML-RPC blogging API support (Blogger,
MetaWeblog, and Movable Type APIs), spam blocking features, advanced
cruft-free URL generation, a flexible theme system, and an advanced plugin
API.
Changes: There are several security patches and other bugfixes in this
release. All users should upgrade ASAP. There are no feature additions or
changes, so there should not be any issues with themes or plugins due to
the upgrade.
