fonts was fixed. Reusing subset 2-byte OpenType fonts across documents now
works correctly. Some fixes were added to PDF/A document creation and
validation. Fixes were made for reading byte-aligned Group 4 and some 2D
Group 3 CCITT streams. Inverted 1-bit images for certain unusually
constructed PDFs were fixed. Some XFA forms wth pageArea objects were
fixed. Improvements were made to the Swing "Look & Feel" for Viewer on
Windows and Linux.

Adaptive Technologies
Scientific/Engineering :: Artificial Intelligence
Scientific/Engineering :: Image Recognition
About: CellWriter is a grid-entry natural handwriting input panel. As you
write characters into the cells, your writing is instantly recognized at
the character level. When you press 'Enter' on the panel, the input you
entered is sent to the currently focused application as if typed on the
keyboard. Writer-dependent, CellWriter learns your handwriting for
reliable recognition. Correcting preprocessor algorithms account for
digitizer noise, differing stroke order, direction, and number of strokes.
Unicode support enables you to write in any language.

[009] - Cook 2.30
by Peter Miller (http://freshmeat.net/users/pmiller/)
Tue, Aug 21st 2007 04:19
Software Development :: Build Tools
About: Cook is a tool for constructing files. It is given a set of files
to create, and recipes of how to create them. In any non-trivial program
there will be prerequisites to performing the actions necessary to
creating any file, such as include files. Cook provides a mechanism to
define these. When a program is being developed or maintained, the
programmer will typically change one file of several which comprise the
program. Cook examines the last-modified times of the files to see when
the prerequisites of a file have changed, implying that the file needs to
be recreated as it is logically out of date.
Changes: Some build and portability fixes were made. The license was
changed to the GPLv3.

where visitors and other items on the page are visualized. This status is
retained as visitors move around. A lot of real-time interaction is
possible, resulting in persistent interactive page environments. DutchPIPE
uses AJAX and the DOM for the browser, and it works without Java, Flash,
plugins, or firewall adjustments.
Changes: An option for using the MDB2 database abstraction layer from
PHP's PEAR library was added. DutchPIPE now supports MySQL, MySQLi,
PostgreSQL, Oracle, Frontbase, Querysim, Interbase/Firebird, MSSQL, and
SQLite. More administrator commands were added. UTF-8 support was
debugged.

Scientific/Engineering :: Visualization
About: Fityk is nonlinear curve-fitting and data analysis software. It
allows data visualization, separation of overlapping peaks, and least
squares fitting using standard Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm, a genetic
algorithm, or Nelder-Mead simplex method. It knows about many functions
(mostly bell-shaped, like Gaussian, Loretzian, Pearson 7, Voigt,
Pseudo-Voigt, and Doniach-Sunjic) and user-defined functions can be easily
added. It also enables background substracting, data calibration, and task
automation with a simple script language. It is being developed to analyze
powder diffraction patterns, but is also used in chromatography,
photoluminescence, infrared, and Raman spectroscopy, and can be used to
fit analytical functions to any kind of data. The most similar program to
Fityk is probably PeakFit.

[018] - FreeDup 0.2
by Andreas Neuper (http://freshmeat.net/users/aneuper/)
Tue, Aug 21st 2007 13:48
System :: Filesystems
System :: Systems Administration
Utilities
About: Freedup uses filesystem links to eliminate duplicate files and thus
reduce the amount of used disk space within one or more file systems.
Freedup searches all given file system trees for identical files and links
them to the most frequently referenced inode or to the inode of the first
file tree. If the devices differ, a symbolic link is used instead of a
hard link. Symbolic links will not replace files when at least one of the
directory trees does not start with a "/" (unless overridden by the -s
option).
Changes: The performance of freedup was improved by reducing the number of
file system reads. Additional functionality is provided, since "locate" (or
other applications) are allowed to send file names to standard input of
freedup. A man page was added with more detailed information than help. In
order to improve quality, further tests and rules were added to the
Makefile. The bugs concerning "-a" support and the incomplete basename
macro were fixed.

Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
About: Interchange is a mature Web application development environment
with a focus on ecommerce and dynamic content management. It offers
session and user management, database connectivity (both via SQL and a
database abstraction layer), templating, a shopping cart, payment
processing, inventory, encryption (via GnuPG, PGP, etc.), tax and shipping
calculation, discounts, Web-based administration, localization, event
routing, SOAP-based RPC, a custom tag language akin to CFML, and the full
power of Perl. It grew out of two earlier projects, MiniVend and Tallyman.
Changes: Process management in PreFork mode was greatly improved, making
Interchange scalable to a new level. The Vend::Swish2 module was added.
This is superior to Vend::Swish because instead of running the swish
binary it uses the Swish Perl API. Control of the session per IP lockouts
when RobotLimit is set was improved. A minor DoS attack hole was closed.
Many other bugfixes and minor enhancements were made.

Internet
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
System :: Monitoring
About: jNetPcap is a Java wrapper around the Libpcap network packet
capture library. The low-level API is exposed in Java, which allows
kernel buffer tuning, flags, and other features. All captured packet
buffers are wrapped, not copied, in efficient java.nio.ByteBuffer and
delivered to Java by reference. This allows not-in-memory copies of
packet data and very efficient and fast delivery of packets. The software
is released for various platforms with the appropriate native library
bundled.
Changes: This release is available in RPM format. A few new features have
been added and some bugs fixed.

[024] - jPersist 2 rc 4
by DaveB (http://freshmeat.net/users/dbulmore/)
Tue, Aug 21st 2007 07:24
Database
Database :: API
Software Development :: Libraries
About: jPersist is an extremely powerful object-relational database
persistence API that manages to avoid the need for configuration and
annotation; mapping is automatic. It uses JDBC, and can work with any
relational database and any type of connection resource. It uses
information obtained from the database to handle mapping between the
database and Java objects, so mapping configuration is not needed, and
annotation is not needed. In fact, there is no configuration needed at
all.
Changes: This is a major milestone release. It contains updated
documentation, usability enhancements, and major bugfixes. Support for
several more databases was added. jPersist now directly supports DB2,
Oracle, MySQL, H2, HSQL, Derby, and PostgreSQL. All jPersist functionality
is available. A problem that resulted in a previous refactoring that led to
an inheritance problem was fixed. Generated key support and
imported/exported key support were also improved. This release will likely
become a final release.

[026] - Karmasphere Parallel Data Processing Language 3.0.2
by Shevek (http://freshmeat.net/users/shevek/)
Tue, Aug 21st 2007 13:49
Information Management :: Workflow Frameworks
Internet :: Log Analysis
Security :: Forensics
About: The Karmasphere DP language is a high-performance non-blocking
parallel language for performing data processing. It is designed to give
the user a high degree of control over the usage of system resources, such
as how many CPU cores or how much disk I/O time to use, without requiring
the software developer to explicitly consider these issues in code. The
implementation is a stand-alone library that can be used in any Java 1.5
environment. It can take full advantage of multiprocessor (SMP or NUMA)
systems, and may be scaled sideways: since the interpreter and environment
are stateless, an entire cluster of machines may run the interpreter in
parallel without any need for synchronization.

smooth. Background clear-color is no longer flashed upon startup. The
close button in the "about" dialog was fixed. A workaround for the "white
rectangle" bug in xserver was added.

synchronization. This has been taken care of. System library dependencies,
specifically in context with OpenSSL libraries, were resolved. Flaws in the
init script were resolved.

[041] - SCSS 0.3.0
by Julian Graham (http://freshmeat.net/users/joolean/)
Tue, Aug 21st 2007 02:12
Internet :: WWW/HTTP
About: SCSS is a Guile Scheme module for parsing, querying, and emitting
style information compatible with the W3C Cascading Stylesheets
recommendation. While SCSS does not itself provide any rendering
functionality, it can provide style information to applications and
libraries that do. If used with XML documents produced by SXML or SDOM,
SCSS can accomodate the full range of selector types described in the W3C
recommendation. It can also match simple selectors against strings when
structured document information is not available.
Changes: The parsing system has been completely rewritten for greater
correctness and error-handling flexibility. The data structure used to
represent stylesheets has been changed to be more compatible with the
WebIt! XML toolkit. Support has been added for media types and the
rgb-function syntax for specifying color values. The license has been
upgraded to GPLv3.

links in each of the pages to verify if they are on the list. Links to
external sites can also be verified by performing HTTP requests to the
remote Web servers to check whether the pages still exist.

[043] - StreamCruncher 2.2 Beta
by Ashwin Jayaprakash (http://freshmeat.net/users/AshwinJ/)
Tue, Aug 21st 2007 02:11
Database :: Database Engines/Servers
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
System :: Monitoring
About: StreamCruncher is an event processor. It supports a language based
on SQL that allows you to define "event processing" constructs like
sliding windows, time-based windows, partitions, and aggregates. Such
constructs allow for the specification of boundaries (some are time
sensitive) on a stream of events that SQL does not provide. Queries can be
written using this language, which in turn can be used to monitor streams
of incoming events. It also provides a feature similar to materialized
views. Joins and sub-queries are also supported to allow event
co-relation. A database is used underneath to do the heavy lifting.
Pattern matching or multi-stream correlation are also possible.
Changes: Correlation Queries ( alert..when..) have been re-architected to
perform better. "case..when.., first, distict, limit" clauses, "group by",
and other Group functions are temporarily not working. OutputSession's
return value is now List<Object[]> instead of Object[][]. A new
CorrelationPerfTest test class performs a load test where four Event
Streams are monitored by three different Correlation Queries.
