Fri, Nov 23rd 2007 16:06
Desktop Environment
Desktop Environment :: Tools
Software Development :: User Interfaces
About: AntiRight provides gtkshell, an interface for scripting a GUI.
Around this interface, applications can be defined at the command line.
This allows rapid application development, leaving the developer to focus
on core application logic. Also included are ACE, a sample desktop
implementation, and gshterm, a vte-based terminal emulator with
transparency, anti-aliased fonts, and xterm-compatible command
specification.
Changes: This release features undo capabilities for the text editor
widget, the addition of improved icons for the ACE Deskbar, a file
management panel that is more useful than the iconic file manager, code to
verify the presence of new configuration keys introduced as ACE evolves,
icon-only toolbars for gtkshell app-mode, a simple calculator (interface
to bc), fixed text editor scrolling, an initial xshell-based panel, left
alignment of menu labels, and icons for each Deskbar menu item.

[002] - Architecture Rules 2.0.2

Fri, Nov 23rd 2007 09:46
Software Development :: Build Tools
Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
About: Architecture Rules is a Java library that allows a programmer to
assert code's architecture via unit tests or ant tasks. This test is able
to assert that specific packages do not depend on others and is able to
check for and report on cyclic dependencies among your project's packages
and classes. This project wraps a industry accepted JDepend to simplify
the process of maintaining a solid software architecture.
Changes: This release fixes getConfiguration() scope too weak usability
(issue 21) and adds package.html and overview.html maintainability (issue
9).

[005] - BlueProximity 1.2.1 (Nightly Builds)
by Lars Friedrichs (http://freshmeat.net/users/highno/)
Fri, Nov 23rd 2007 04:20
Desktop Environment :: Gnome
Desktop Environment :: K Desktop Environment (KDE)
Desktop Environment :: Tools
About: BlueProximity helps add a little more security to the desktop. It
does so by detecting a certain Bluetooth device, most likely a mobile
phone, and keeping track of its distance. If it is moved away from the
computer and the distance is above a certain level (no measurement in
meters is possible) for a given time, it automatically locks the desktop
(or starts any other shell command wanted). Once away, the computer awaits
its master's return: if the device is nearer than a given level for a set
time, the computer unlocks without any interaction (or starts any other
shell command wanted).
Changes: The proximity command now only executes if proximity is detected
and not paused, not always as before. Some tooltips should help the
initial user. Channel setting is now possible via a GUI, and a device can
be scanned for usable channels. There are more error messages if external
packages are missing.

by Michael Rash (http://freshmeat.net/users/michaelrash/)
Fri, Nov 23rd 2007 15:31
System :: Logging
System :: Monitoring
System :: Networking :: Firewalls
About: fwsnort translates snort rules into an equivalent iptables ruleset.
By making use of the iptables string match module, fwsnort can detect
application layer signatures which exist in many snort rules. fwsnort adds
a --hex-string option to iptables, which allows snort rules that contain
hex characters to be input directly into iptables rulesets without
modification. In addition, fwsnort makes use of the IPTables::Parse Perl
module in order to (optionally) restrict the snort rule translation to
only those rules that specify traffic that could potentially be allowed
through an existing iptables policy.
Changes: A major signature update from Bleeding Threats. This update
includes a large number of new signatures with PCRE statements, with an
emphasis on detecting SQL injection attacks directed at internal Web
servers from external sources. The ability to interpret PCRE statements
that include simple string matches separated by ".*" and ".+" as multiple
iptables string matches has been added. The asn1 keyword has been added to
the unsupported list.

not try to provide extensive algebraic capabilities and a simple
programming language but instead accepts a given language (C++) and
extends it by a set of algebraic capabilities.
Changes: A memory leak in ginac_yylex() was fixed. Memory leaks in
mul::eval() and power::eval() were fixed. Macro checking for the version
of libreadline was fixed (Mac OS X). A broken preprocessor instruction in

Security
Software Development :: Libraries
System :: Monitoring
About: The Prelude Library (libprelude) is the glue that binds all aspects
of Prelude together. Prelude is a hybrid Intrusion Detection framework
implementing an open communication layer for use by any security
application. libprelude is a library that enables Prelude components to

components). It provides common, useful features used by every sensor.
Changes: This release sends heartbeats as high priority messages, fixes
compilation issues on systems with old GnuTLS versions, propagates the CC
environment variable when compiling bindings, makes more explicit
assertions on invalid API usage, and appropriately sets the process umask
before creating analyzer profile/failover files and directories (fixing a

Fri, Nov 23rd 2007 02:56
System :: Emulators
About: plus4emu is a portable emulator of the Commodore Plus/4 computer.
It supports Windows and POSIX platforms (32 bit Windows, 32 and 64 bit

uncompressed YV12, at the expense of some TV emulation effects not being
captured. A new command line option for selecting the GUI style and colors
was added. Various minor improvements and bugfixes were made.

About: WP Clipart is an attempt to make a useful clipart package of public
domain images for use in word processors. It includes an optional
cross-platform viewer/editor written with Python/wxWidgets. The collectoin
contains non-transparent PNG images, scaled down images, midtones expanded
for inkjet print quality, etc. It is suitable for documents as well as Web
graphics, but also has business application (credit cards, promo graphics)
and educational uses (pictures of all US presidents, all country flags
alphabetically listed, all US states, historical figures, and a sign
language alphabet).
Changes: The code for the viewer/editor was updated to work well with
wxGTK >= 2.8. A large update of clipart images was done. The entire
collection can once again be downloaded in packages.
