as simple as one mount command (or one line in fstab).
Changes: This release integrates patches porting ChironFS to FreeBSD and
NetBSD, and changes the debug code on *BSD versions to get the same system
information that the Linux version gets. It is needed because the next
ChironFS release will need that info in order to resynchronize failed
replicas.

Sun, Apr 6th 2008 03:25
Database
Database :: Front-Ends
About: The dbmstools module exists mainly for developers who need to
support applications on more than one database management system (DBMS).
It's intended to allow all the database information (schema and base data)
to be kept in one single place, and to have DBMS-specific scripts (for
creating and populating the database schema, and upgrading from one
version to the next) generated from that data. It can generate schema
documentation for any DBMS (including diagrams), and can export data from
a database in several formats. It also has wrappers for several tools so
that they can be run from within Apache Ant. It supports PostgreSQL 7 and
8, Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL, and Hypersonic (limited support).
Changes: Major improvements in this version include: proper support for
UTF-8 (Unicode) and ISO-8859-1 (Latin 1) character encodings; basic
support for the SQLite DBMS; and an improved Jython Ant task supplied as a
single standalone jar file (containing Jython, the Ant task, and all the
dbmstools scripts). The version of Jython supplied has been updated to
2.2.1.

[019] - FET 5.5.4
by Liviu Lalescu (http://freshmeat.net/users/LalescuLiviu/)
Sun, Apr 6th 2008 23:48
Scientific/Engineering :: Artificial Intelligence
About: FET (free timetabling tool) automatically schedules the timetable
of a school, high school, or university. It aims to have the same
functionality as expensive scheduling programs.
Changes: Small interface improvements were made. The "2 activities
ordered" constraint was added to require that two activities occur in a
particular order. Constraints regarding the maximum hours a teacher or
student can be scheduled continuously were added. A rare crash bug was
fixed, which was triggered if using home rooms with weight under 100% and
rooms are constrained. More tests were added to ensure that home rooms are
input correctly. Generating multiple timetables now saves each timetable in
fet form to allow opening later. The number of days per week was increased
to 28, to allow exam scheduling.

[024] - fwknop 1.9.3
by Michael Rash (http://freshmeat.net/users/michaelrash/)
Sun, Apr 6th 2008 03:12
Security
System :: Monitoring
System :: Networking :: Firewalls
About: fwknop implements an authorization scheme called Single Packet
Authorization that requires only a single encrypted packet to communicate
various pieces of information, including desired access through an
iptables or ipfw firewall policy and/or specific commands to execute on
the target system. The main application of this program is to protect
services such as SSH with an additional layer of security in order to make
the exploitation of vulnerabilities much more difficult. The authorization
server works by passively monitoring authorization packets via libpcap.
Also supported is a robust port knocking implementation based around
iptables log messages.
Changes: MASQUERADE and SNAT support were added to complement inbound DNAT
connections for SPA packets that request --Forward-access to internal
systems. A hex_dump() feature was added for the fwknop client so that raw
encrypted SPA packet data is displayed in --verbose mode. When
ENABLE_IPT_FORWARDING is set, a check was added for the value of the
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward file to ensure that the local system allows
packets to be forwarded. Unless ENABLE_PROC_IP_FORWARD is disabled,
fwknopd will automatically set the ip_forward file to "1" if it is set to
"0".

[031] - IDSS 0.1.0
by Fab Nicol (http://freshmeat.net/users/fabnicol/)
Sun, Apr 6th 2008 16:34
About: IDSS is a statistical application for email surveys. It parses HTML
questionnaires filled in by respondents. Output is: a separated database, a
SAS DATA step import program, and correspondence tables between variable
characteristics and field values. IDSS was developed as an alternative to
Web-based statistical surveys. No coding experience or network programming
is required to set up a survey. Tools for checking execution and coherence
of data are available. Performing database authoring takes barely more
running time than gzip compression of the survey questionnaires. IDSS can
thus be used to parse and analyse fairly large numbers of electronic
questionnaires and create large databases (10,000 lines and more in
tests).

[065] - Seed7 2008-04-06
by Thomas Mertes (http://freshmeat.net/users/thomas_mertes/)
Sun, Apr 6th 2008 16:50
Software Development :: Compilers
Software Development :: Interpreters
About: Seed7 is a general purpose programming language. It is a higher
level language compared to Ada, C++, and Java. In Seed7, new statements
and operators can be declared easily. Functions with type results and type
parameters are more elegant than a template or generics concept. Object
orientation is used when it brings advantages and not in places when other
solutions are more obvious. Although Seed7 contains several concepts of
other programming languages, it is generally not considered as a direct
descendant of any other programming language.
Changes: The interpreter and the compiler (comp.sd7) were improved to
support the functions bitLength, lowestSetBit, <<, <<:=, >>, and >>:= for
integer and bigInteger. The priority of the << and >> operators was
changed from 19 to 9 in syntax.s7i. Uses of the obsolete file output
operator << were replaced with write in several files. The manual and the
chkint.sd7 and chkbig.sd7 programs were improved. The compiler was
improved to optimize some functions. A boss mode was added to panic.sd7
and mahjong.sd7. The bas7.sd7 (basic interpreter) example program was
improved.

[074] - TaskForest 1.07
by enoor (http://freshmeat.net/users/enoor/)
Sun, Apr 6th 2008 19:21
System :: Monitoring
About: TaskForest is a simple but expressive job scheduler that allows you
to chain jobs and tasks and to create time dependencies. It uses plain-text
configuration files to specify task dependencies. It is designed for use on
a single machine.
Changes: A major bug was fixed in this release. Long-running jobs (that
ran for longer than the wait time, or longer than the time between two
invocations of taskforest) were not recognized as such. This caused the
jobs to be marked as 'Ready' and not 'Running', causing them to be run
again. All users are urged to upgrade to this release and make sure to use
the current version of the 'run' wrapper.

[077] - tig 0.11
by Jonas Fonseca (http://freshmeat.net/users/fonseca/)
Sun, Apr 6th 2008 16:37
Software Development :: User Interfaces
Software Development :: Version Control
Utilities
About: Tig is a git repository browser that additionally can act as a
pager for output from various git commands. When browsing repositories, it
uses the underlying git commands to present the user with various views,
such as a summarized revision log and showing the commit with the log
message, diffstat, and the diff. Using it as a pager, it will display
input from stdin and colorize it.
Changes: This release fixes pager mode and disable view reliance on the
git directory. The date and author columns and references can now be
toggled on and off. Local (unsigned) tags are now shown as references, and
the builtin reference colors have been changed to highlight the current
branch and the remote tracked by the current branch. The status and stage
views are now reloaded after running external commands (e.g. git commit)
so they stay up to date. A blame view has been added, and is accessible
from the command line (tig blame [rev] file), status view, and the tree
view (by pressing 'B').

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
About: Tntnet is a Web application server for generating Web applications
in C++. HTML pages with some additional tags for inclusion of C++ code are
compiled into shared libraries and served from tntnet. It resembles PHP,
JSP, or Mason, but the programming language used is C++, and the pages are
compiled into native code before serving. Tntnet is fully multithreaded and
supports HTTP keep-alive for best performance. Its dynamic pages are faster
than static pages with other Web servers, while creating Web applications
is simple.
Changes: This release brings some bugfixes in handling of SSL. The GnuTLS
support is much more robust and faster now.
