[002] - aria2 0.15.1
by SlotGazer (http://freshmeat.net/users/slotgazer/)
Thu, Jul 31st 2008 17:43

Communications :: File Sharing
Internet :: File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
Internet :: WWW/HTTP

About: aria2 is a utility for downloading files. The supported protocols
are HTTP(S), FTP, BitTorrent, and Metalink. It has a powerful segmented
downloading ability, downloading a file from multiple sources and multiple
protocols and utilizing your download bandwidth to the maximum. It supports
downloading a file from HTTP(S)/FTP and BitTorrent at the same time, while
the data downloaded from HTTP(S)/FTP is uploaded to the BitTorrent swarm.
Using Metalink's chunk checksums, aria2 automatically validates chunks of
data while downloading a file like BitTorrent.

Changes: This release fixes broken gzip inflation, lowers CPU usage, and
has submitted patches applied. Bulgarian and French translations were
updated.

[003] - Blosxom 2.1.1
by Axel Beckert (http://freshmeat.net/users/xtaran/)
Thu, Jul 31st 2008 17:50

Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: News/Diary

About: Blosxom (pronounced "Blossom") is a lightweight yet feature-packed
Weblog application designed from the ground up with simplicity, usability,
and interoperability in mind. Fundamental is its reliance upon the file
system, folders, and files as its content database. Users can create, edit,
rename, and delete entries on the command-line, via FTP, WebDAV, or
anything else they might use to manipulate their files.

Changes: isPermalink has been changed back to "false" for the default RSS
story template because it won't be a working link in many situations. This
won't change the GUID, but don't let it be used as a link anymore. The no
longer working manual base URL detection code has been rewritten. It is
simpler, easier to understand, and only applies if the base URL is not set
manually.

[004] - Butterfly Container 2.3.9-beta
by Jakob Jenkov (http://freshmeat.net/users/jjenkov/)
Thu, Jul 31st 2008 14:09

About: Butterfly Container is a Java dependency injection container. It is
smaller (~100KB jar), yet more flexible and easier to use than Spring,
Pico, and Guice (at least in the developers' opinion). Instead of XML,
Butterfly Container is configured using a simple, flexible, Java-like
configuration language, or by plugging plain non-annotation, non-reflection
Java factories into the container. There are no external dependencies.

Changes: This version brings improved error messages during factory script
parsing. Earlier, the parser did not always tell you the name of the
factory in which the parsing error was encountered. This has been improved.

Internet
Security
System :: Networking :: Firewalls

About: FireHOL a simple yet powerful way to configure stateful iptables
firewalls. It can be used for almost any purpose, including control of any
number of internal/external/virtual interfaces, control of any combination
of routed traffic, setting up DMZ routers and servers, and all kinds of
NAT. It provides strong protection (flooding, spoofing, etc.), transparent
caches, source MAC verification, blacklists, whitelists, and more. Its goal
is to be completely abstracted and powerful but also easy to use, audit,
and understand.

Changes: This version was updated to parse the latest format of the IANA
reservations page. Support for custom actions for services was added. This
opens a way to allow actions that can be controlled externally without
restarting the firewall. Several minor issues were fixed, providing better
NAT support for all services, handling for external pager commands, kernel
config parsing, a config wizard, etc.

Thu, Jul 31st 2008 10:51

Software Development :: Embedded Systems
Software Development :: Interpreters
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries

About: The Hecl Programming Language is a high-level scripting language
implemented in Java. It is intended to be small, extensible, extremely
flexible, and easy to learn and use. It is intended as a complement to the
Java programming language, not a replacement. As such, it tries to do well
what Java doesn't, and leaves those tasks to Java for which it is best
suited. It is also easy to add Hecl to Java, or write new Hecl commands in
Java. It aims to be a very immediate language so that you can pick it up
and start doing useful things with it quickly. Of particular interest is
the fact that it's small enough to run on Java-enabled cell phones, so you
can quickly script applications for them!

Changes: Android code is now included and working. Reflection was added to
the language for the Android and J2SE versions. Documentation was cleaned
up . There were various fixes and improvements.

Software Development :: Code Generators
Software Development :: Compilers
System :: Networking

About: MIB Smithy is an application for SNMP and COPS developers, MIB and
PIB designers, and Internet-draft authors. It provides a GUI-based
environment for designing, editing, and compiling MIB and PIB modules
according to the SMIv1, SMIv2, and COPS-PR-SPPI standards. It accelerates
the development process by providing an easy-to-use GUI-based environment
for developing the specifications without the syntax and formatting
concerns of editing the modules by hand. It includes a number of built-in
basic SNMP management tools, XML support, and (with MIB Smithy
Professional) support for custom compiler output formats.

Changes: Left/right key bindings were added to the Project Tree for
navigation. Bugs were fixed in configuring project dependencies under Unix,
errors that could occur during output generation or editing of records to

SMI/MIB Module definitions, unlike similar extensions that provide only
read access to a limited subset. The SDK allows multiple discrete SMI
databases and SNMP sessions, and provides all of the built-in validation
and error recovery capabilites of the full product, without the visual MIB
development environment.

Changes: Several bugs in the SMI parser, XML-SMI parser, and notification
handling were fixed. Some MIB database querying APIs were made more
flexible. Documentation was updated with example corrections and more
logging features added in an earlier release.

Communications
Information Management :: Metadata/Semantic Models
Internet

About: Morla is an editor of RDF documents that allows you to manage more
RDF documents simultaneously, visualize graphs, and use templates for quick
writing. You can import RDFS documents and use their content to write new
RDF triples. Templates are also RDF documents, and they make Morla easily
personalizable and expandable. You can also use Morla as an RDF navigator,
browsing the RDF documents present on the Internet exactly as you are used
to doing with normal browsers.

Changes: This release supports the new librasqal API. The Windows binary
package uses the latest GTK+, Glib, Pango, and Cairo libraries.

[028] - Neko 1.7.1
by Nicolas Cannasse (http://freshmeat.net/users/ncannasse/)
Thu, Jul 31st 2008 20:32

Software Development :: Assemblers
Software Development :: Code Generators
Software Development :: Compilers

About: Neko is a high-level dynamically typed programming language. It can
be used as an embedded scripting language. It has been designed to provide
a common runtime for several different languages. Learning and using Neko
is very easy. You can easily extend the language with C libraries. You can
also write generators from your own language to Neko and then use the Neko
Runtime to compile, run, and access existing libraries. Neko is a good way
for language designers to focus on design and reuse a fast and
well-designed runtime, as well as existing libraries for accessing
filesystem, network, databases, XML, etc. It has a compiler and a virtual
machine. The virtual machine is very lightweight and well optimized. The VM
can be easily embedded into any application, and your libraries can be
accessed using the C foreign function interface.

Changes: Several small bugfixes and some new APIs for multithread
programming (mutexes, deque, and TLS).

[029] - Nodezilla 0.5.3-cindy
by plop (http://freshmeat.net/users/smkaribou/)
Thu, Jul 31st 2008 14:13

Communications :: File Sharing
Internet

About: Nodezilla is a secured, distributed, and fault tolerant routing
system (or grid network) that supports distributed services such as file
sharing, chat, efficient video multicast streaming, and secured file
storage. It provides cache features where any server may create a local
replica of any data object. These local replicas provide faster access and
robustness to network partitions, and reduce network congestion by
localizing access traffic. To ensure data protection, redundancy and
cryptographic techniques are used.

Changes: Small bugs in the replication code which prevented some objects
from ever being properly replicated under high load were fixed. A new
DistributedPocket API was added.

Security
Security :: Cryptography
Software Development :: Libraries

About: OpenSC consists of tools and libraries and a PKCS#11 module to use
smart cards and initialize blank smart cards. It supports many commercial
smart cards with filesystems, many national ID cards (read only), and some
Java Card cards with specific Java Card applets. OpenSC implements the
PKCS#15 standard. Cards initialized with OpenSC can be used (read-only)
with other software implementing PKCS#15 standard and vice versa.

Changes: This version fixes a vulnerability in OpenSC. Affected are smart
cards and USB crypto tokens based on Siemens CardOS M4 if initialized with
OpenSC. Please test and update all your cards with "pkcs15-tool -T -U"
using this release. The configure options in the build system have changed,
support for ruTokens added, and other improvements made.

Thu, Jul 31st 2008 17:31

Security
Security :: Cryptography
System :: Systems Administration

About: Pam_p11 is a pluggable authentication module (PAM) package for
using cryptographic tokens such as smart cards and USB crypto tokens for
authentication. Pam_p11 is very simple, as it has no config file, no
options other than the PKCS#11 module file, and does not know about
certificate chains, certificate authorities, revocation lists, or OCSP.
There is one module that uses the $HOME/.eid/authorized_certificates file
(like the old pam_opensc did) and one module that uses the
$HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys file (like ssh does).

Changes: A number of build fixes have been applied.

[036] - SCSS 0.3.1
by Julian Graham (http://freshmeat.net/users/joolean/)
Thu, Jul 31st 2008 04:25

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 codebase has been completely reorganized to facilitate
porting to other Scheme interpreters. The selection algorithm has been
modified to support intelligent caching of style information related to
pseudo-elements, obviating the need for user management of the style cache.
The lexer has been rewritten by hand, resulting in a smaller and slightly
more efficient implementation.

[042] - The Cell Messaging Layer 2.2
by Scott Pakin (http://freshmeat.net/users/pakin/)
Thu, Jul 31st 2008 04:25

Software Development :: Libraries
System :: Clustering/Distributed Networks

About: The Cell Messaging Layer is a communication library for clusters of
Cell Broadband Engine processors. It implements a subset of the popular MPI
message-passing API on the Cell's SPE processors, with one MPI rank per SPE
across any number of Cells and the ability for any SPE to communicate
directly with any other SPE, even across a network. The Cell Messaging
Layer thereby makes programming clusters of Cell processors similar to
programming clusters of conventional CPUs.

Changes: The build process is now more robust to incorrect timestamps on
files and is slightly better at constructing some of the Makefile build
variables. A CMLDACSTHREADED environment variable has been introduced to
control whether DaCS should surround all of its internal operations with
locks. An end-of-run race condition has been fixed. CML has been tested on
the full, 12,240-Cell Roadrunner supercomputer.

small. For example, the overhead for a record is 16 bytes for a hash
database, and 5 bytes for a B+ tree database. Furthermore, the scalability
of Tokyo Cabinet is great. The database size can be up to 8EB.

Changes: The network server now supports FreeBSD and Mac OS X. An API of
fixed-length array database was added. A compression mode with bzip2 was
added.

Thu, Jul 31st 2008 20:31

Desktop Environment :: Tools
System :: Systems Administration
Terminals

About: xlax is an X11 input multiplexer: it sends your keyboard input from
the xlax window to a group of windows simultaneously. The tool is designed
for system administrators who typically have to do the same thing on
several machines (or in several different directories). Windows can be
added or deleted interactively, or temporarily disconnected and
reconnected. xlax allows you to assign a custom string to each window (e.g.
a hostname) that can be sent with a button click. An included script
handles starting up and arranging windows, and allows you to set up
commonly used window groupings in a config file.

Changes: Pasting the current selection and using Send String were both
broken for anything except alphanumeric characters. This is now fixed, and
all 7-bit characters should be handled correctly.
