[008] - atool 0.33.0
by Oskar Liljeblad (http://freshmeat.net/users/osk/)
Wed, Aug 22nd 2007 11:26
System :: Archiving
About: atool is a script for managing file archives of various types (tar,
tar+gzip, zip etc). The main command is aunpack, which extracts files from
an archive. It overcomes the problem of extracting files from an archive
without checking whether the files were located in a subdirectory or in
the top directory of the archive, resulting in files scattered all over
the place by first extracting to a new directory. If there was only a
single file in the archive, that file is moved to the original directory.
It also prevents local files from being overwritten by mistake. The other
commands are apack for creating archives, als for listing files in
archives, and acat for extracting files to standard out.

[009] - audio-checker 1.3
by hadji (http://freshmeat.net/users/hadji/)
Wed, Aug 22nd 2007 14:49
Education
Multimedia :: Graphics :: 3D Modeling
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Analysis
About: The aim of auch is to visualize harmonics in musical recordings.
Many tools show the spectrum, but this tool focuses on one or two specific
octaves with an indication of the tonica (the key) and sub-dominant(IV) and
dominant(V). It also supports wavelet transformation and resampling to
further analyze and clean-up the recording. This way, notes, chords, and
harmonics in a musical piece become more clear. Another feature is that
this tool can compare outgoing audio (from a .wav file) with incoming
audio (microphone). This way, the effect of external filters can be
tested.
Changes: This release adds two tin-can music 'transforms'. The filters
simulate the propagation of the audio through an elastic medium (just like
the rope in a tin can telephone). Critical parameters like damping, pull
force, mass, length, etc. can cause reflections and resonance on the
string. A second device is 'ether': an imaginary tin can telephone-system
with many ropes of different lengths between the two end points.

Communications :: Email
Communications :: Email :: Filters
Internet
About: DynaStop is a utility to examine IPv4 based addresses for Exim and
procmail for the purpose of filtering based upon patterns defined by the
administrator. This can be a pivotal factor in email filtering and server
load management, since dynamic IP addresses are typically used for
dial-up, DHCP, and DSL accounts. All of which have a designated mail
exchange server through which all outbound mail flows as defined with
many, if not most, large Internet service providers.
Changes: The ability to mix GreyListing and non-GreyListing functionality
in the same DynaWall server was added. DynaStop was also updated with this
feature. Inline filtering will now receive a valid return code even on
GreyListed IP addresses. Be sure to delete your DynaWall.cache file (file
structure change) before running this version.

to have a relatively small Bittorrent client, which runs on a small
computer without a graphical interface and to control this server from a
different machine. An example of this type of architecture is the mldonkey
client/server system for the edonkey protocol.
Changes: Due to an incorrect encoding of some torrent hashes in version
0004 and below, about 10% of torrents were reported to be unknown by the
trackers. This was fixed. The second important fix solves the settings
problem for the upload and download rates. Both limits are now heeded
correctly by the server. The client got a new torrent selector box. Both
the client and the server were successfully compiled and tested on Mac OS
X.

Software Development :: Libraries
Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
Software Development :: Object Brokering
About: GUPnP is an object-oriented open source framework for creating UPnP
devices and control points, written in C using GObject and libsoup. The
GUPnP API is intended to be easy to use, efficient, and flexible. The
GUPnP framework consists of two libraries. GSSDP implements resource
discovery and announcement over SSDP, and GUPnP implements the UPnP
specification: resource announcement and discovery, description, control,
event notification, and presentation (basic Web server functionality
through libsoup). GUPnP does not include helpers for construction or
control of specific standardized resources (e.g. MediaServer); this is
left for higher level libraries utilizing the GUPnP framework.
Changes: A new series of functions for sending actions taking hash tables
of parameter name-GValue pairs. New introspection methods for state
variable and action retrieval by name. A new pkg-config file for building
against an uninstalled libgupnp. Improved conversion between GValues and
UPnP value types. This release will only include evented state variables
in the initial event message.

Internet
System :: Networking
About: gwhois is a generic whois client (and server) which strives to
know the right server to query for each and every top level domain and IP
address. You can ask gwhois about a domain or IP address, and it will
automatically forward your query to the appropriate server. It even
queries whois servers that can only be reached by a Web form, and outputs
the results as text. It can be used as a client or as a relaying server,
so you can use your normal whois client to ask gwhois.
Changes: The lookup for the .de top level domain was fixed.

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: This is a cleanup and bug fixing release. It fixes a bug which
can lead to a high load closing a remote connection. A potential segfault
on reinit as well as some other bugs were fixed. Further, the unloading of
modules was enhanced. Especially the MySQL output module has been
optimized. The hardcoded module path "/lib/rsyslog" changed to
$(pkglibdir) in order to support 64-bit platforms. This is a recommended
update for all users.

[063] - tclDBRCS 0.3a
by Jean-Samuel (http://freshmeat.net/users/xsgauthier/)
Wed, Aug 22nd 2007 13:32
Software Development :: Version Control
About: tclDBRCS is a database-oriented revision control system which
features full project/tag/branch support. It also supports encryption of
file content, CVS import, infinite branching of branches, entire diff or
merge of project, RC of binary files, empty directory storage, removal
without losing history, and more. No specialized server is needed outside
of PostgreSQL, and all operations are executed on the client machine.
Changes: DBRCS API is available as a package that requires dbrcs. An
installation and configuration tool, install_package.tcl, has been added.
There are crash fixes. This release can use an internal xdelta3 program
interface: no fork/exec, just download the Tcl extension. It is easier to
integrate into other applications.

Communications
Documentation
Information Management :: Document Repositories
About: Trac is an advanced tool for tracking software development
projects. It provides a simple wiki, issue tracking system, and tight
integration with the Subversion revision control system. This JumpBox
bundles Trac 0.10.4 and Subversion 1.3.1.
Changes: DHCP is no longer required. The JumpBox console is now an
interactive text application that allows you to set a static IP for your
JumpBox. A bug that failed to properly test write permissions on a backup
volume has been fixed, thus improving the robustness of the backup
mechanism. Apache logs will be saved for 4 weeks rather than 52 weeks.
There are no application-specific changes.

Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
About: WidgetServer is a Java/XML server-side GUI-framework which enables
an application to run as either a monolithic Swing app, a client/server
Swing app, or as a Web app without any change and without loss of
functionality. A rich widget set is supported that includes tree views,
tabbed panes, split panels, and much more. A unified widget-based,
object-oriented programming interface for Web and Swing GUIs is offered to
the developer to control and assemble the GUI. Web applications are fully
AJAX enabled. For Swing client/server applications, the framework handles
client/server communication, including compression and security layers. A
GUI builder is included.
Changes: This version fixes some bugs in the JavaScript library. The
Component-Set example is more interactive now. A new component similar to
JSpinner has been added. A new package to create wizard based applications
by declaration was added. Some enhanced error messages help to detect XML
configuration errors now.

[067] - XMLSensors 0.2
by Nocturn (http://freshmeat.net/users/nocturn/)
Wed, Aug 22nd 2007 10:34
System :: Networking :: Monitoring
About: XMLSensors is a set of programs that serve as generic plugins to
monitoring systems such as Nagios, Big Brother, Zabbix, and many others.
The sensors output an XML status file for each sensor that is retrieved
and processed by a generic plugin to the monitoring system of your choice.
The XML can be published on a Web server, and transferred via network
shares or SSH. It currently has 2 sensors. phpbb2_version checks the
version of a phpBB forum against the offcial release, and smf_version does
the same for a Simple Machines forum. There's also a dummy sensor that you
can modify yourself.
Changes: This release adds support for the XMLSensor1.1 format and moves
to the GPLv3.
