Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Office/Business
Office/Business :: Groupware
About: OBM is a groupware, email, LDAP, Windows PDC, CRM, and project
management application. It is mainly used as an Exchange or Notes/Domino
groupware and mail server replacement, as an LDAP directory, as a Windows
PDC, as a contact and customer database, as a project management tool, or
as any combination of these functions. It provides groupware (calendars,
contacts, and tasks) connectors for Outlook, Thunderbird/Lightning, and
PDAs. It supports internationalization and themes. It is highly scalable,
and is used by sites from five to many thousands of users.
Changes: Many enhancements were made in the time/activity module (better
displays, user group selections, and PDF generation), in the calendar
module (double-click popups, ICS, and VCS import fixes), in the mail system
handling (auto folder creation, multiple name spaces support, and
subdomains handling), and the LDAP system (public contact synchronization
and specific postfix relay map generation). An SSO server mechanism has
been embedded. Many fixes and improvements were made in Invoice, password
handling, group, and other modules.

Mon, Jun 16th 2008 04:00
Software Development :: Libraries
System :: Logging
About: Pantheios is a C/C++ logging API library. It offers an optimal
combination of complete type-safety, very high efficiency, genericity, and
extensibility. It is simple to use and extend, highly portable (platform
and compiler independent), and it upholds the C tradition of only paying
for what you use. Pantheios supports logging of message statements of
arbitrary complexity, consisting of heterogenous types. Pantheios supports
filtering of log messages based on severity level.
Changes: The Application Layer was enhanced such that it is now possible
to disable all third-party or operating-system-specific string access shim
headers. Implicit linking was added for fe.WindowsRegistry. Project files
for VC++ 7.1 and 8 were added for the Core, Util, and all stock backend and
frontend projects. This version bundles xTests 0.8.2, and depends on
STLSoft 1.9.45.

Office/Business
Other/Nonlisted Topic
Scientific/Engineering :: Medical Science Apps.
About: PatientOS is an electronic medical record system (PMS and EHR or
EMR) for a physician or clinics. It is designed to be expanded into a
healthcare information system for a hospital. It is a distributed clinical
system.
Changes: This release adds granulinking: a scanned form can have discrete
data bound to areas on the form to allow a clinician to markup a regular
paper form, but behind the scenes the system captures discrete data for
reporting, graphing, mining, etc. The patient chart can have new custom
tabs, and prescriptions have been streamlined with few screens in the
wizard. Two new drug databases are supported.

[035] - PHP MIME Mail decoder class 2008.06.14
by Manuel Lemos (http://freshmeat.net/users/mlemos/)
Mon, Jun 16th 2008 14:10
Communications :: Email :: Filters
Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes
About: PHP MIME Mail decoder class is a PHP class to parse and decode MIME
email messages. It supports decoding single RFC 2822 MIME messages or
archives that aggregate multiple messages in the mbox format. It can decode
messages read from files or data strings. The bodies of multipart messages
can be decoded into distinct sub-messages. Optionally, the message body
data can be saved to separate files, so the class can handle messages
larger than the available memory. The parser can tolerate some syntax
errors in malformed messages that are not compliant with RFC 2822.
Changes: This release provides support to tolerate malformed messages due
to truncated multipart part separators. A couple of bugs were fixed to
correctly handle messages with headers split in multiple lines and messages
with mixed line break types.

[036] - POMStrap 1.0.11
by Alag (http://freshmeat.net/users/Alag/)
Mon, Jun 16th 2008 14:32
Software Development :: Build Tools
About: POMStrap is a really simple Java application bootstrap and
classloader trick that allows dependency "classloading" without side
effect. POMStrap uses Maven2 pom files to resolve dependencies required to
launch an application. For example, if your application depends on A-1.0
(and can only work with this version) and B-1.0; and if B-1.0 also depends
on A-2.0, then B-1.0's dependency won't normally be able to be satisfied
without violating another one of your application's dependencies. POMStrap
avoids this kind of dependency conflict.
Changes: POMStrap groupId has be changed to org.pomstrap.tigris to match
the Maven recommendation. This release also includes a few small minor
adjustments.

About: PostgreSQL is a robust, next-generation, Object-Relational DBMS
(ORDBMS), derived from the Berkeley Postgres database management system.
While PostgreSQL retains the powerful object-relational data model, rich
data types and easy extensibility of Postgres, it replaces the PostQuel
query language with an extended subset of SQL.
Changes: pg_get_ruledef() now parenthesizes negative constants. ALTER
AGGREGATE ... OWNER TO was made to update pg_shdepend.

[042] - rsyslog 3.17.4 (Beta)
by Rainer Gerhards (http://freshmeat.net/users/rgerhards/)
Mon, Jun 16th 2008 14:28
System :: Logging
About: Rsyslog is an enhanced multi-threaded syslogd. Among others, it
offers support for on-demand disk buffering, reliable syslog over TCP, SSL,
TLS, and RELP, writing to databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and many
more), email alerting, fully configurable output formats (including
high-precision timestamps), the ability to filter on any part of the syslog
message, on-the-wire message compression, and the ability to convert text
files to syslog. It is a drop-in replacement for stock syslogd and able to
work with the same configuration file syntax.
Changes: This version fixes a problem with imklog symbol lookup on newer
kernels. Recent kernels do the symbol lookup themselves. The default
behavior of imklog was to also do the symbol lookup. This uncoordinated
dual-lookup caused the symbol information to be destroyed. This has been
fixed by changing imklog's default to not do any lookup. The lookup
functionality as whole has been deprecated and is scheduled to be removed
with the next version.

Mon, Jun 16th 2008 03:55
Software Development
Software Development :: Libraries
Utilities
About: runawk is a small wrapper for the AWK interpreter that helps one
write standalone AWK scripts. Its main feature is to provide a
module/library system for AWK which is somewhat similar to Perl's "use"
command. It also allows you to select a preferred AWK interpreter, to setup
the environment for your scripts. It also provides other helpful features.
runawk makes programming AWK easy and efficient, despite the fact that AWK
is a very simple programming language. runawk also provides many useful AWK
functions and extensions implemented in the separate files/modules.
Changes: The -v|--assign option was added, which works like AWK's -v
option. This is to pass some variables to the AWK interpreter. For example,
"runawk -v var=123 -e 'BEGIN {print var }'". Better error messages and
clean-ups were added in modules/xgetline.awk. NR is also printed to stderr
in modules/abort.awk. Minor fixes were made in *.c. Clean-ups and fixes
were made in "make test", so it no longer depends on the author's own
system and runawk directory. The Makefile was ported to the ancient
pmake-1.45 found in some Linux distributions.

Mon, Jun 16th 2008 14:39
Games/Entertainment :: Arcade
About: Word War vi is a side-scrolling shoot 'em up '80s style arcade
game. You pilot your "vi"per craft through core memory, rescuing lost .swp
files, avoiding OS defenses, and wiping out those memory hogging emacs
processes. When all the lost .swp files are rescued, head for the socket
which will take you to the next node in the cluster.
Changes: The radar now shows a box around your ship indicating the
boundaries of the screen, and your ship and the humanoids blink twice as
fast as they used to for increased visibility. Default options can now be
set via the ~/.wordwarvi/.exrc config file, and customization of keyboard
and joystick controls can be done via this file as well. A couple more
levels have been added. The mouse cursor has been changed to something less
obtrusive. A few very minor bugs have been fixed.
