[001] - Animal Shelter Manager 2.3.4
by Bob Tetley (http://freshmeat.net/users/bobintetley/)
Tue, Oct 28th 2008 13:10

Database
Information Management
Information Management :: Records Management

About: Animal Shelter Manager is a complete computer solution for animal
sanctuaries, rescue shelters, and veterinary surgery clinics. It features
complete animal and owner management, document generation, flexible
reporting, charts, Internet Web site publishing, and more.

Changes: This release fixes the last of the Mac issues. Additional
permissions are now supported and a new Web build allows ASM to run from a
Web server as a Java applet. Finally, a much-needed splash screen shows
startup progress.

[003] - Anyterm 1.1.27 (Development)
by Phil Endecott (http://freshmeat.net/users/endecotp/)
Tue, Oct 28th 2008 13:19

Communications :: WAP
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Terminals :: Terminal Emulators/X Terminals

About: Anyterm provides a terminal emulator on a Web page using Javascript
and a server daemon. The daemon typically runs behind an HTTP proxy; it
forks a shell and communicates with the script using XMLHTTP on port 80 or
securely using SSL. This provides you with shell access to your machine
from almost any Web browser, even when firewalls are in the way. The
my.anyterm.org service provides access without the need to install anything
on your servers.

Changes: This version fixes two build bugs, one affecting SuSE users, and
works around a probable Firefox 3 bug that had caused an unnecessary
horizontal scrollbar to be shown. This version also builds on Mac OS X.

[004] - artiPACS 0.5
by hadji (http://freshmeat.net/users/hadji/)
Tue, Oct 28th 2008 18:17

System :: Archiving

About: The artiPACS (Art in a Picture Archive) is a digital picture
archive. It has two main modules: the archive and the broker. The Picture
Archive module consists of a file-transfer server, a reference repository,
and a utility to upload photos. Since the archive uses version control, you
can see collections evolve over time. The Broker exposes the collections to
the users. The mipmip client is a portable graphical user interface, using
3D technology to browse and view high-resolution images.

Changes: Proxy-support, fullscreen, mouse-release, and a
crash-with-connection-lost were fixed in the source code, but not in the
Win32 binary. Documentation was added on the homepage.

[005] - Back In Time 0.7.2
by Dan (http://freshmeat.net/users/danleweb/)
Tue, Oct 28th 2008 13:08

System :: Archiving :: Backup
Utilities

About: Back In Time is a simple backup system for the GNOME desktop
inspired by the "flyback project" and "TimeVault". The backup is done by
taking snapshots of a specified set of directories. All you have to do is
configure: where to save snapshot, what directories to backup, and when a
backup should be done (manually, every hour, every day, every week, or
every month). It acts as a "user mode" backup system. This means that you
can backup and restore only folders to which you have write access.

Changes: Integration with GNOME icons was improved. The last path is
remembered. The month is capitalized in the timeline.

About: bahcount is a utility that counts down the seconds left until noon,
January 20, 2009 in a small window. This is the expected date Bush will
cease being president of the USA. The program takes your timezone into
account and counts down according to EST. Various command line options are
available.

Changes: The -t option was added to just show UCT and local time. General
cleanup of the source and minor fixes were done.

[008] - check_hpasm 3.0.5
by lausser (http://freshmeat.net/users/lausser/)
Tue, Oct 28th 2008 13:16

System :: Diagnostics
System :: Hardware
System :: Monitoring

About: check_hpasm is a plugin for Nagios which checks the hardware health
of Hewlett-Packard Proliant servers. To accomplish this, you must have
installed the hpasm package. The plugin checks the health of processors,
power supplies, memory modules, fans, CPU- and board-temperatures, and
alerts you if one of these components is faulty or operates outside its
normal parameters.

Changes: The plugin now runs faster through a decreased amount of
transferred oids. The --ignore-fan-redundancy switch was added. SNMP memory
checking was rewritten for better reliability.

[009] - check_logfiles 2.4.1.8
by lausser (http://freshmeat.net/users/lausser/)
Tue, Oct 28th 2008 13:18

System :: Diagnostics
System :: Logging
System :: Monitoring

About: check_logfiles is a plugin for Nagios which checks logfiles for
defined patterns. It is capable of detecting logfile rotation. If you tell
it how the rotated archives look, it will also examine these files. Unlike
check_logfiles, traditional logfile plugins were not aware of the gap which
could occur, so under some circumstances they ignored what had happened
between their checks. A configuration file is used to specify where to
search, what to search, and what to do if a matching line is found.

Changes: A bug in scriptparams with CL_TAG was fixed. A bug was fixed in
rotating::uniform and macros. A bug was fixed in Windows scriptpath.
Relative pathnames for configuration files are now possible.

[010] - check_oracle_health 1.5.0.1
by lausser (http://freshmeat.net/users/lausser/)
Tue, Oct 28th 2008 13:17

Database :: Database Engines/Servers
System :: Monitoring
System :: Systems Administration

About: check_oracle_health is a plugin for the Nagios monitoring software
that allows you to monitor various metrics of an Oracle database. It
includes connection time, SGA data buffer hit ratio, SGA library cache hit
ratio, SGA dictionary cache hit ratio, SGA shared pool free, PGA in memory
sort ratio, tablespace usage, tablespace fragmentation, tablespace I/O
balance, invalid objects, and many more.

Changes: A bug with decimal numbers and the German locale was fixed.
Numerical results of mode=sql are now rounded to two places. A bug was
fixed in the sga-shared-pool-free mode.

[011] - Common UNIX Printing System 1.4b1
by Michael Sweet (http://freshmeat.net/users/easysw/)
Tue, Oct 28th 2008 04:14

Internet
Printing
Software Development :: Libraries

About: CUPS provides a portable printing layer for Unix(r)-based operating
systems. It has been developed to promote a standard printing solution for
all Unix vendors and users. CUPS provides the System V and Berkeley command
line interfaces, and uses the Internet Printing Protocol ("IPP") as the
basis for managing print jobs and queues. The Line Printer Daemon (LPD)
Server Message Block (SMB), and AppSocket (a.k.a. JetDirect) protocols are
also supported with reduced functionality. CUPS adds network printer
browsing and PostScript Printer Description ("PPD") based printing options
to support real world printing under UNIX. It includes an image file RIP
that supports printing of image files to non-PostScript printers. A
customized version of GNU Ghostscript 7.05 for CUPS called ESP Ghostscript
is available separately to support printing of PostScript files within the
CUPS driver framework. Sample drivers for Dymo, EPSON, HP, and OKIDATA
printers are included that use these filters.

Changes: This release has over 65 changes and new features compared to
CUPS 1.3.x.

Desktop Environment :: File Managers
Information Management :: Document Repositories

About: DocFetcher is a desktop search application: It allows you to
perform fast searches for all documents in a given set of folders that
contain certain keywords. You can think of it as Google for your local
document repository. The application is currently available for Windows and
GTK-based Linux distributions.

Changes: This release fixes an annoying window layout bug that caused the
filter panel to become smaller over time. Other changes include a much
improved look when the program is used with the 'Windows classic' theme,
and an improved system tray icon on Linux.

[017] - ExtSQL SUSE-10/SOLARIS-10
by John Murtari (http://freshmeat.net/users/jmurtari/)
Tue, Oct 28th 2008 12:54

Database :: Database Engines/Servers
System :: Monitoring

About: ExtSQL is not a new database server. It is a significant set of
independently developed software additions and patches to the existing
source code of both MySQL and PostgreSQL. It provides a new set of SQL
language features that make it easy for a DBA to monitor and audit activity
on a busy server and account for activity by user, database, or even
connecting client host. It even includes the ability to store historical
usage data in amounts and time intervals specified by the DBA. It is not a
separate monitoring utility, but built into the core of both servers.

Changes: Complete patch sets for SUSE 10 are now supported on both on x86
and x86_64 architectures. Solaris 10 is supported on SPARC architectures.

Multimedia :: Video

About: frei0r is a minimalistic plugin API for video sources and filters.
The behavior of the effects can be controlled from the host by simple
parameters. The intent is to solve the recurring reimplementation or
adaptation issue of standard effects. It is not meant as a generic API for
all kinds of video applications.

Changes: Three new plugins were added: UV Map, Edge Glow, and K-Means
Clustering. Various bugfixes were done.

About: Gambatte is an accuracy-focused, cross-platform Game Boy and Game
Boy Color emulator. It is based on hundreds of corner case hardware tests,
as well as previous documentation and reverse engineering efforts. The core
emulation code is contained in a separate library back-end (libgambatte)
written in pure platform-independent C++. There is a GUI that uses
Trolltech's Qt4 toolkit (gambatte_qt), and a simple command-line SDL
front-end (gambatte_sdl). The GUI front-end contains platform-specific
extensions for video, sound, and timers.

[022] - glideinWMS 1_5_1
by Igor Sfiligoi (http://freshmeat.net/users/sfiligoi/)
Tue, Oct 28th 2008 18:22

Scientific/Engineering :: Bioinformatics
Scientific/Engineering :: Physics
System :: Clustering/Distributed Networks

About: The purpose of the glideinWMS is to provide a simple way to access
the Grid resources. To achieve this without reinventing the wheel,
glideinWMS is a Glidein-based WMS (Workload Management System) that works
on top of Condor. Once setup, final users can submit regular Condor jobs to
the local queue and the glidein factory will provide the computing
resources behind the scenes. From the final user point of view, the Condor
pool just magically grows and shrinks as needed.

Changes: This version adds a flag to factory that allows or requires
proxies from the frontend. There are bugfixes to the node blacklisting
code, Squid proxy handling, and the installer.

[023] - GNU CD Input and Control Library 0.81
by R. Bernstein (http://freshmeat.net/users/rocky/)
Tue, Oct 28th 2008 12:54

Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: CD Audio
Multimedia :: Video
Software Development :: Libraries

About: The GNU Compact Disc Input and Control library encapsulates CD-ROM
reading and control for applications wishing to be oblivious to the OS- and
device-dependent properties of a CD-ROM. It provides an API for access to
SCSI-MMC (multimedia commands) and support for CD image types like BIN/CUE,
cdrdao's TOC, and Nero's NRG, which gives applications using the library
the ability to read disc images as though they were CDs. ISO-9660
filesystem support is included, as are utility programs for displaying CD
and CD-ROM drive information, reading the blocks of a CD, and extracting
files from an ISO-9660 filesytem image. cdparanoia is also included.

Changes: Nero disk image handling is more complete in the areas of CD-Text
processing, DAO in reading audio sectors, and ISRC processing. ISO 9660
time getting and setting have been made reentrant and some bugs were fixed.
Some Mac OS X and mingw32 cross-compiling bugs were fixed.

[024] - gSwing 0.7
by gmh04 (http://freshmeat.net/users/gmh04/)
Tue, Oct 28th 2008 22:25

About: gSwing is a program for viewing election results and a collection
of tools for maintaining the data. It shows the performance of the main
parties in elections over a number of years in a series of charts and
graphs.

Changes: The viewer graph is now scrollable. The ability to export party
and election lists as XML has been added. FTP to server functionality has
been added. The build system has been moved to Maven. The code base has
been moved to Java 1.5.

[025] - Himerge 0.30.30
by Luis Araujo (http://freshmeat.net/users/LuisAraujo/)
Tue, Oct 28th 2008 04:38

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: This release fixes an important bug in the packages branch
directory backup creation. Many different shortcut keys have been added to
access most of the Himerge operations and work around the most important
widgets (surfing the browser views, closing panel tabs, and jumping to the
package search box). A single new module is included for easy shortcut keys
configuration. The documentation has been updated to reflect the new keys
functionality.

[026] - HTMLTemplate 1.5.0
by hhas01 (http://freshmeat.net/users/hhas01/)
Tue, Oct 28th 2008 18:22

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Text Processing :: Markup :: HTML/XHTML

About: HTMLTemplate converts (X)HTML templates into simple object models
controlled by callback functions defined in your Python code. Conceptually
similar to DOM (but much simpler), it provides complete separation between
HTML markup and presentation logic. It boasts an excellent power-to-weight
ratio thanks to its lightweight DOM-inspired design: the implementation and
API are extremely simple and compact, yet powerful, flexible, and easy to
modify and/or use.

Changes: This release makes minor API improvements and converts all
documentation and tutorials to HTML format.

Games/Entertainment :: Turn Based Strategy
Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Software Development :: Interpreters

About: JACL is an interpreted language for creating interactive fiction
(text adventure games). Using a variety of Glk libraries, JACL has
cross-platform support for graphics and sound.

Changes: New variables for the disabling of multimedia features, a new
"grandof" operator to determine an object's ultimate parent object, and a
new library for debugging code were added. Improvements were made to the
power and flexibility of the saved-game system plus several small bugfixes.

[028] - Jailer 2.5.7
by Wisser (http://freshmeat.net/users/rwisser/)
Tue, Oct 28th 2008 18:19

Database
Database :: Front-Ends
Software Development :: Testing

About: Jailer is a tool for model-based data exporting, schema browsing,
and rendering. It exports consistent, referentially intact row-sets from
relational databases. It removes obsolete data without violating integrity.
It is DBMS agnostic (by using JDBC), platform independent, and generates
hierarchically structured XML and topologically sorted SQL-DML.

Changes: The primary key of the table JAILER_ENTITY can be generated in a
more compact way in order to reduce the risk of exceeding the maximum
number of parts per key allowed by the DBMS. To enable this feature, set
the parameter 'minimize-UPK' to true in 'config/config.xml'.

Tue, Oct 28th 2008 04:40

System :: Systems Administration

About: mlocate is a new locate implementation. The "m" stands for
"merging", because updatedb reuses the existing database to avoid rereading
most of the file system, which makes updatedb faster and does not trash the
system caches as much. The locate(1) utility is intended to be completely
compatible to slocate. It also attempts to be compatible to GNU locate,
when it does not conflict with slocate compatibility.

Changes: Translations were updated. updatedb.conf(5) was clarified.

[062] - WordPress Release 2.6.3
by Dougal Campbell (http://freshmeat.net/users/emc3/)
Tue, Oct 28th 2008 18:24

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: News/Diary
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Site Management

About: WordPress is a state-of-the-art, semantic, personal publishing
platform with a focus on aesthetics, Web standards, and usability. It was
born out of a desire for an elegant, well-architected personal publishing
system. While primarily geared towards functioning as a Weblog, WordPress
is also a flexible CMS capable of managing many types of Web sites. In
addition to the basic blog functions, it also has an integrated link
manager (e.g. for blogrolls), file attachments, XFN support, support for
stand-alone pages, Atom and RSS feeds for both content and comments,
blogging API support (Atom Publishing Protocol, Blogger, MetaWeblog, and
Movable Type APIs), spam blocking features, advanced cruft-free URL
generation, a flexible theme system, and an advanced plugin API.

Changes: This version addresses a vulnerability in the included Snoopy
library. WordPress uses Snoopy to fetch the feeds shown in the Dashboard.
If you don't want to download the whole release to get the security fix,
individual files are available for download to patch your 2.6.2
installation.

changes were made.
