Information Management
Software Development :: Libraries :: Ruby Modules
System :: Operating System :: Linux Distributions
About: The Amahi Home Server is a Linux Home Server based on Fedora (and
later on Ubuntu). Your machine becomes a "Home Digital Assistant" or HDA
after the installation. Each HDA is a Fedora-based server targeted for home
and home office environments. It provides an iTunes server, calendaring, a
wiki, shared network storage, network backups, a printer server, VPN, and a
plug-in architecture built on Ruby on Rails.
Changes: A new dynamic DNS system is included that is fully automatic with
no need for configuration files. A major new version of the installer
brings an easier install process, with more reliable package installation,
as well as much more user friendly messages during the process.

Limit, and new filters. It has a minor fix in Advance View that increases
performance. The updateipsshd function has been fixed to increase
performance. The updateipsmbd function, which decreased performance, has
been disabled.

Thu, Aug 7th 2008 03:28
Multimedia :: Graphics
Scientific/Engineering :: Mathematics
About: Benojt is a fast and flexible explorer for various types of
fractals. It can render escape-time fractals like Mandelbrot/Julia style
fractals, Newton fractals, Lyapunov fractals, and two dimensional
attractors/strange attractors. Due to its modular design, single components
like iterators, renderers, and colorings can be replaced, making it easy to
experiment with individual aspects of fractal creation. New iterators can
be created at runtime by typing a fractal fomula which is compiled and
loaded automatically.
Changes: This release contains new displays for 3D and 4D attractors, new
iterators for Pickover Stalks and Buddhabrot fractals, and new templates
for Pickover Stalks, Buddhabrot fractals, and 3D/4D attractors.

Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: CD Audio :: CD Writing
System :: Archiving
About: cdrtools (formerly cdrecord) creates home-burned CDs/DVDs with a
CDR/CDRW/DVD recorder. It works as a burn engine for several applications.
It supports CD/DVD recorders from many different vendors; all SCSI-3/mmc-

IDE/ATAPI, parallel port, and SCSI drives, audio CDs, data CDs, and mixed
CDs, full multi-session support, CDRWs (rewritable), DVD-R/-RW, DVD+R/+RW,
TAO, DAO, RAW, and human-readable error messages. cdrtools includes remote
SCSI support and can access local or remote CD/DVD writers.
Changes: A workaround was implemented for a GNU make design bug that
prevented compilation on some Linux platforms. The minimal write speed of a
ultraspeed CD-RW capable drive was reduced from 16x to 10x. Some mkisofs
bugs in -stream-file mode were fixed.

and installation does not need superuser privileges.
Changes: This release contains a major new feature: distcc-pump mode. With
pump mode, distcc is now able to distribute preprocessing too, not just
compilation. As a result, this release can be up to three times faster than
earlier versions. It also contains many other new features and bugfixes.

downloaded or after an expiration date. The F*EX server itself is installed
on a UNIX system, while the recipient and sender only need an email program
and a Web browser of any kind on any operating system. Sending to multiple
recipients needs storage on the server only once.

Thu, Aug 7th 2008 15:25
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Editors
About: Jaikoz is a powerful tag editor that allows you to organize, edit,
and correct thousands of audio tags with ease. Jaikoz has powerful
automation features. Jaikoz uses MusicBrainz and MusicIP, online databases
of over 5 million songs, which can match your songs automtically based on
the actual music as well as the metadata. Jaikoz uses a convenient
spreadsheet view to allow you to edit information very quickly and provides
many autoformatting tasks which do most of the work for you.
Changes: The preferred musicbrainz country is now set for releases based
on the locale of the computer. When track matches multiple releases
identically, the release whose its total number of tracks matches the total
number of tracks loaded into Jaikoz with the same release name is picked. A
check is done to ensure that outgoing access to port 10001 is open and a
warning is given if it isn't. This is required for Retrieve Acoustic Ids to
work optimally.

[032] - rsyslog 2.0.6 (v2 Stable)
by Rainer Gerhards (http://freshmeat.net/users/rgerhards/)
Thu, Aug 7th 2008 17:09
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: IPv6 addresses could not be specified in forwarding actions,
because they contain colons and the colon character was already used for
some other purpose. IPv6 addresses can now be specified inside of square
brackets. This is a recommended update for all v2-stable branch users.

[038] - UDFclient 0.6.3
by Reinoud Zandijk (http://freshmeat.net/users/buzztoh/)
Thu, Aug 7th 2008 15:08
Utilities
About: UDFclient is a userland implementation of the UDF filesystem as
defined by the OSTA group. It is designed to be a study platform and a
run-up to a full read and write (NetBSD) kernel level implementation. It
provides a user interface not unlike ftp but differs in that it always
fetches or writes files recursively. It supports the basic get, mget, put,
mput, mv, rm, mkdir, cd, lcd, free, pwd, and lls command set.
Changes: A byteswapping option was implemented to allow udfclient to read
and write PVR hard disks which appear to be byteswapped for some reason.
Also, udfdump dumping was improved, making it handle big free space maps
and allocation extensions and making cd_disect ATAPI happy again.

Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
Text Processing :: Markup :: XML
About: UJO Framework offers a special architecture of beans different from
conventional JavaBeans. The useful features are XML persistence of an
object tree, controlled access to its attributes, easy collaboration with
Swing tables, and very light weight.
Changes: Some abstract implementations of the UjoExt interface were
slightly improved for better type safe features. There is a new method to
set columns to a UjoTableModel class. The methods of the UjoTextable
interface were extended about the "context" parameter. The original methods
are implemented in a SuperUjo class. The method of the UjoCloneable
interface was extended about the "context" parameter.
