with side effects) allows user created scripts to be run safely on email
servers. Sieve is targeted at the final delivery phase (where an incoming
email is transferred to a user's mailbox). jSieve is implemented as a
language processor that can be plugged into any Internet mail application
to add Sieve support.

balancing. It features a stateful firewall with NAT and PAT, and a content
filtering module blocking malicious HTTP requests like XSS, SQL and Command
Injection. It integrates a caching DNS, a DHCP server, a bandwidth shaper
to manage the QoS, a load sharing system, and an HA (high availability)
mode with VRRP and link bonding. 

Changes: CSS was added to the Web administration GUI. SSL v2 is no longer
supported when the appliance acts as reverse Web proxy (only SSL v3 and TLS
v1.0 are supported now).

printing. Moreover, new command line arguments were added that allow you to
use an alternative data directory, and to be more flexible when specifying
the range of dates to be considered when displaying appointments and
events. Finally, new key bindings ease movements in the calendar.

[010] - DBIx::Perlish 0.43 
  by Grrrr (http://freshmeat.net/users/Grrrr/)
  Thu, Aug 28th 2008 11:21



About: The DBIx::Perlish module provides the ability to work with
databases supported by the DBI module using Perl's own syntax for the four
most common operations: SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE, and INSERT. By using
DBIx::Perlish, you can write most of your database queries using a
domain-specific language with Perl syntax. However, the module is not
intended to replace all use of SQL in your program. The DBIx::Perlish
module quite intentionally neither implements nor cares about database
administration tasks like schema design and management. 

Changes: Global hash variables are understood in query subs.

[016] - Himerge 0.22 
  by Luis Araujo (http://freshmeat.net/users/LuisAraujo/)
  Thu, Aug 28th 2008 08:16

System :: Operating System :: Linux Distributions

About: Himerge is a GUI for emerge (Gentoo's Portage system) written in
Haskell using gtk2hs. The main idea is to simplify browsing the entire
portage tree, and allow running the most basic and common options from the
emerge command. It also offers several handy tools, like global and local
use flags browsers, inspired by UFED (the Gentoo Linux USE flags editor).
It also uses eix (a small utility for searching ebuilds with indexing for
fast results) as a back-end command to show package information in HTML/CSS
format, so you can access a package's Web site for a quick glance.

Changes: The versions of packages that are currently installed are now
identified with a green gentoo icon in the respective package views. The
"USE flag browser" now supports nested directories for the
/etc/portage/package.use branch. Now the "New Repo" file chooser dialog
text box can also be used to enter and select a new repository.

  Thu, Aug 28th 2008 00:06

System :: Archiving
System :: Archiving :: Backup

About: Manent is an algorithmically strong backup and archival program. It
features efficient backup to anything that looks like storage. Currently it
supports plain filesystems ("directories"), FTP, and SFTP. Planned are
Amazon S3, optical disks, and email (SMTP and IMAP). It can work (making
progress towards finishing a backup) over a slow and unreliable network. It
can offer online access to the contents of the backup. Backed up storage is
completely encrypted. Backup is incremental, including changed parts of
large files. Moved, renamed, and duplicate files will not require
additional storage. Several computers can use the same storage for backup,
automatically sharing data. Both very large and very small files are
supported efficiently. Manent does not rely on timestamps of the remote
system to detect changes.

Changes: This release is easier to package. Detection of unexpected
containers in the active sequence has been fixed.

mechanism to report parsing events such as the start of an entity header,
the start of a body, etc. If you are familiar with the SAX XML parser
interface you should have no problem getting started with mime4j. The
parser only deals with the structure of the message stream and won't do any
decoding of base64 or quoted-printable encoded header fields and bodies.
This is intentional - the parser should only provide the most basic
functionality needed to build more complex parsers.

Changes: This release brings a number of significant improvements in terms
of supported capabilities, flexibility, and performance. It has a revised
and improved public API, support for parsing of 'headless' messages
transmitted using non-SMTP transports such as HTTP, reduced external
dependencies, improved parsing performance (up to 10x), support for
RFC1864, RFC2045, RFC2183, RFC2557, and RFC3066, and a revised packaging
and exception hierarchy.

  Thu, Aug 28th 2008 00:05

Multimedia :: Graphics :: Graphics Conversion
Multimedia :: Video :: Conversion

About: mkscreens.sh is a small wrapper script around MPlayer and
ImageMagick to generate collated thumbnails (a.k.a. "screens") from video
streams, similar to the feature found in Media Player Classic. It tries to
fit the maximum number of thumbnails of a given pixel width into predefined
compound image dimensions. It can handle every seekable video stream that
MPlayer can handle (AVI, MPEG, MKV, etc.), including DVD images, in which
case it processes the longest title. 

Changes: This release fixes calculation of the final montage size (grid
lines were not properly accounted for).

[028] - MySQL Cluster Administration Tools 0.3.1 
  by Devananda (http://freshmeat.net/users/Devananda_vdv/)
  Thu, Aug 28th 2008 08:12

Database
System :: Clustering/Distributed Networks
System :: Monitoring

About: The MyCAT project is a toolset for managing MySQL/Linux servers,
and could be helpful for anyone managing a network of *nix servers whether
running MySQL Cluster, standard replication, or not running MySQL at all.
At present, it contains three programs. rcall eases use and administration
of groups (clusters) of *nix servers by creating logical groupings and a
single location from which to run commands on all servers while entering it
only once. It requires only an SSH connection. rep_mon is a replication
monitor that notifies if a server is lagging or has encountered any errors.
It handles any replication topology easily. binlog_mon monitors disk space
used by MySQL binary logs, purging only when disk space is needed. It
checks all slaves to ensure that purged files are not still being read by
slaves. It has configurable behavior in the event that a slave still needs
the oldest file.

Changes: Critical bugs were fixed in both binlog_mon and rep_mon.

[040] - Python milter 0.8.10 
  by Stuart D. Gathman (http://freshmeat.net/users/stuartdgathman/)
  Thu, Aug 28th 2008 07:58

Communications :: Email :: Filters

About: The milter module for Python provides a python interface to
Sendmail's libmilter that exploits all its features. Milters can run on the
same machine as sendmail, or another machine. The milter can even run with
a different operating system or processor than sendmail. Sendmail talks to
the milter via a local or internet socket, and keeps the milter informed of
events as it processes a mail connection. At any point, the milter can cut
the conversation short by telling sendmail to ACCEPT, REJECT, or DISCARD
the message. After receiving a complete message from sendmail, the milter
can again REJECT or DISCARD it, but it can also ACCEPT it with changes to
the headers or body.

Changes: The rcpt for SRS rejections is logged. Parsing of MAIL FROM into
email and fullname was improved. No-DSN CBV was implemented. A check is
done cfor porn words in MAIL FROM fullname. IPs are now banned for too many
bad MAIL FROMs or RCPT TOs. Temperror policy is supported in sendmail
access. Gossip TTL was configured. AddrCache, parse_addr, and iniplist were
added to the Milter package. parse_header was added to Milter.utils. A
sample spfmilter.py milter was added. The pymilter and pymilter-spf
packages were split out. Milter apps were moved to /usr/lib/pymilter.

Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Players

About: Unix Amiga Delitracker Emulator (UADE) plays most Amiga music file
formats by simulating Amiga hardware and software. It plays approximately
200 Amiga music file formats. It provides a command line tool for playing,
but it also provides music player plugins for XMMS and Audacious. For other
music players, there is a FUSE filesystem that transparently converts Amiga
songs to WAV files.

Changes: Three new replayers were added, uadefs and uade123 were improved,
and several bugs were fixed.

Security
Security :: Cryptography
System :: Networking

About: The WiKID Strong Authentication System is a highly scalable, secure
two-factor authentication system. It is simple to implement and maintain,
allows users to be validated automatically, requires no hardware tokens,
has a simple API for application support (via Ruby, PHP, Java, COM, Python,
etc.), supports multiple domains, and supports replication for fault
tolerance and scalability. It also supports mutual /host and transaction
authentication. 

Changes: The code was updated for the latest JRE. Proxy support was
improved by fixing a problem that Windows tokens had with certain proxies
(such as squid). Support was added for authentication in proxies (see the
username and password boxes under Set Preferences).

data, simple calculations are possible (like sum).
