to the next floor and try not to fall down. As you go further up the
Falling Tower, the floors will fall more quickly. Try to survive longer and
get higher up than anyone else.

[025] - Granite Data Services 1.1.0 RC4

  Mon, Aug 11th 2008 13:01

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Software Development :: Code Generators
Software Development :: Object Brokering

About: Granite Data Services (GDS) is an alternative to Adobe LiveCycle
(Flex 2) Data Services for J2EE application servers. It is not, however, a
drop-in replacement: you won't be able to simply deploy a Flex 2 Data
Services application into a Granite Data Services server without
modifications. The main goal of this project is to provide a framework for
Flex 2/EJB3/Spring/Seam/Guice/Pojo application development with full
AMF3/RemoteObject benefits. It has a Data Push feature implemented as AMF3
requests sent over HTTP (Comet).

Changes: This release comes with a new feature for Pojo services
(@RemoteDestination annotation support), improvements for Ejb3 session
beans support (RMI calls and stateful configurations), many bugfixes for
Tide (GDS/Seam integration), and reduced dependency on third-party jars
(commons-beanutils, jdom, and log4j).

  by fooscope (http://freshmeat.net/users/fooscope/)
  Mon, Aug 11th 2008 13:00

Communications

About: gumnut is a program to aid a group of people to perform cooperative
decentralized decision making. The text or GUI client can create, moderate,
and display proposals over a decentralized communication network (currently
gnutella). Proposals are text files with a simple naming convention that
uses the filename to describe field attributes (such as topic and
geographical location). Popular proposals are found by searching on one or
more of these fields and then calculating the support for each proposal
based on the number of occurrences on the network. 

Changes: On the search results page of the GUI, the actions of clicking on
the index listing and the leaf name were swapped. Default countrycode and
postcode were added to the dropdown boxes. A compilation bug with new gcc
is avoided. The .deb package file was cleaned up.

Security :: Cryptography

About: Keyczar is a cryptographic toolkit designed to make it easier and
safer for developers to use cryptography in their applications. It supports
authentication and encryption with both symmetric and asymmetric keys.
Cryptography is easy to get wrong. Developers can choose improper cipher
modes, use obsolete algorithms, compose primitives in an unsafe manner, or
fail to anticipate the need for key rotation. Keyczar abstracts some of
these details by choosing safe defaults, automatically tagging outputs with
key version information, and providing a simple programming interface.

  by weibullguy (http://freshmeat.net/users/weibullguy/)
  Mon, Aug 11th 2008 23:40



About: PackManUtil is a command line application for simplifying the build
and management process for source packages. It was originally written for
use with an x86_64, multi-lib Cross Linux from Scratch (CLFS) system. Since
then, it has been extended to be used on ix86 CLFS systems. PackManUtil
consists of several system-wide scripts to handle the brunt of the work. A
separate build script is created for each package. PackManUtil comes with a
system-wide configuration file, but variables can be overridden on a
package-specific basis in the build script. PackManUtil has also been
tested on Slamd64-12.1 and Slackware-12.1; however, these distributions are
not officially supported.

Changes: The edit function no longer opens a blank file. Instead, it opens
a new file created from a template. Times are no longer entered in
times.log when a build fails. A PowerPC section has been added to
build.cfg.

[047] - Pantheios 1.0.1 beta 148 
  by Dr Proctor (http://freshmeat.net/users/DrProctor/)
  Mon, Aug 11th 2008 12:26

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: This release consists of a large number of changes to the names
and namespaces of components in the Util, Core, and Application Layer APIs.
The result is that a large number of names are removed from the "pantheios"
namespace, reducing the burden on users of the library to only being aware
of those functions and classes that they are likely to use directly. Note
that these are breaking changes. Users are strongly advised to recompile
all dependent software.

upon an image converter if image scaleing is on. The recommended image
converter is "convert" from the ImageMagick package.

Changes: Big code cleanup to make it easy to use RabbIt's HTTP classes
from other programs. Fixes for a few rare NullPointerExceptions. A problem
where ImageHandler ignored the min_size directive has been fixed.

Changes: The ability to use "select *" and "table.*" were added. The
"like" operator was added. Sometimes text was clipped in Graphviz. This was
fixed by specifying textsize.

Scientific/Engineering
Scientific/Engineering :: Mathematics
Scientific/Engineering :: Visualization

About: SciDAVis is an interactive application aimed at data analysis and
publication-quality plotting. It combines a shallow learning curve and an
intuitive, easy-to-use graphical user interface with powerful features such
as scriptability and extensibility. It is similar in its field of
application to proprietary Windows applications like Origin and SigmaPlot,
as well as free applications like QtiPlot, Labplot, and Gnuplot.  What sets
SciDAVis apart from the above is its emphasis on providing a friendly and
open environment (in the software as well as the project) for new and
experienced users alike, and particularly in providing good documentation
on all levels.

Changes: This release introduces many new features for tables and
matrices. These include a multi-level undo/redo system, support for
non-contiguous selections, and easier access to frequently used controls
and options in a sidebar. The internal data representation has been
improved to prevent loss of numeric precision and to allow more powerful
data manipulation from Python scripts.

Communications
Internet
Internet :: Proxy Servers

About: Tor is a network of virtual tunnels that allows people and  groups
to improve their privacy and security on the Internet.  It also enables
software developers to create new  communication tools with built-in
privacy features. It  provides the foundation for a range of applications
that allow  organizations and individuals to share information over  public
networks without compromising their privacy.  Individuals can use it to
keep remote Websites from tracking  them and their family members. They can
also use it to  connect to resources such as news sites or instant 
messaging services that are blocked by their local Internet  service
providers (ISPs). 

Changes: This release implements most of the pieces to prevent
infinite-length circuit attacks (see proposal 110). A bug that might cause
exit relays to corrupt streams they send back was fixed. Address patterns
(e.g. 255.128.0.0/16) are allowed to appear in ExcludeNodes and
ExcludeExitNodes config options. A big pile of bugs was fixed.

Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Indexing/Search

About: UvumiTools Dock Menu turns your Web site's navigation menu into a
very smooth and nicely animated Mac-like dock, making it feel less like a
Web page and more like the desktop of a Mac. It is totally degradable and
non-obtrusive, so your users won't be too upset if they try viewing your
site with Javascript disabled, and search engines like Google and Yahoo
won't be stymied when they index your site. The plugin starts with regular
and valid HTML, and builds a beautifully animated graphical menu with a
minimum of coding on your part.
