Thu, Jan 27th 2005 05:31
Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
About: The mission of the Apache Portable Runtime (APR) project is to
create and maintain software libraries that provide a predictable and
consistent interface to underlying platform- specific implementations. The
primary goal is to provide an API to which software developers may code
and be assured of predictable if not identical behaviour regardless of
the platform on which their software is built, relieving them of the need
to code special-case conditions to work around or take advantage of
platform-specific deficiencies or features.
Changes: Changes include the addition of a multicast API, extensions to
build against a number of LDAP toolkits, support for LDAP SSL/TLS and
client certificates, the addition of Solaris 10 "Event Ports" as a backend
for APR Pollset, and various fixes.

Thu, Jan 27th 2005 14:46
Software Development :: Version Control
System :: Archiving :: Packaging
System :: Installation/Setup
About: Conary is a distributed software management system for Linux
distributions. It replaces traditional package management solutions (such
as RPM and dpkg) with one designed to enable loose collaboration across
the Internet. It enables sets of distributed and loosely connected
repositories to define the components which are installed on a Linux
system. Rather than having a full distribution come from a single vendor,
it allows administrators and developers to branch a distribution, keeping
the pieces which fit their environment while grabbing components from
other repositories across the Internet.
Changes: Tag handling was significantly reworked; the description-specific
actions went away, and were replaced by handler actions that get called for
handler or description changes. In addition, a bug that caused file tags
not to be considered on updates was fixed. All source files are now
committed to the repository, not just the ones that have been added with
the cvc add command. The repository now has the capability to log the
files added to the contents store.

Thu, Jan 27th 2005 14:58
Information Management
About: Housekeeper is an application for managing household issues. It is
able to keep a list of food items, inlcuding their expiry dates, so you
always have an overview of what is going to be needed soon.
Changes: This release's main feature is the separation of convenience

easier to decide your next meal while not forgetting "supporting" food's
expiry dates. In a later release, you will be able to define your own
categories. The next goal is further improvement of the user interface and
greater configurability.

added to make porting to operating systems other than Linux easier for
autoipd.

Thu, Jan 27th 2005 03:37
Communications :: Email
Communications :: Email :: Post-Office :: IMAP
Database
About: IMAPEngine is an IMAP server that uses a tdbengine database
structure to store all accounts, messages, and mailboxes. This means it
has nearly no limits in numbers, sizes, and performance, and it uses
indexes to sort/find its data. IMAPEngine is IMAP4Rev1 compatible and also
has built-in support for the ACL, ID, IDLE, and UIDPLUS extensions. It is
not (yet) an MTA, but it retrieves incoming messages from different POP3
servers. An simple integrated Web interface makes account configuration
easy.
Changes: This release fixed a database handling bug that caused Mozilla
Thunderbird 1.0+ and probably several other IMAP clients to always receive
the very first message body in combination with email headers from other
messages. Another annoying bug that caused the server to hang when clients
sent the APPEND command too often in a row was aksi fixed.

Multimedia :: Graphics :: Graphics Conversion
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Viewers
About: JLM image viewer is able to view standard image types as well as
JLM and PLM image types. It is also able to lighten or darken an image
using a "lightspace" technique. The technique is equivalent to changing
the exposure time of the camera which took the image. The lightening or
darkening method is generally considered superior to techniques found
(such as gamma correction) which are found in image manipulation programs
such as photoshop or the GIMP.

[040] - mcache 1.1.0
by John McCaskey (http://freshmeat.net/users/jmccaskey/)
Thu, Jan 27th 2005 15:07
Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes
About: mcache is a PHP extension providing an easy to use object- oriented
API for caching data to memcache-based servers. The extension is based on
the libmemcache C API, and is extremely fast. It has full support for
multiple servers as well. As such the extension is both faster, and more
feature full than the PECL standard memcache extension.
Changes: A bug was fixed where storing a value of the PHP type long,
double, or bool would result in the value being returned formatted as a
string on the get() call. Support was added for persistent memcache
objects/connections. This can significantly enhance performance in the
event of something like a server dying, as previously a TCP connection
would be attempted and wait for the connection timeout every page load.
The set(), replace(), and add() methods have been changed to not accept a
flags value.

display. It is very useful for notebooks when using full screen
applications, since it allows you to monitor your battery state in all
applications. It shows a status bar, the percentage of battery power left,
and maximum, minimum, and current voltage. It has a configuration file to
specify placement on the desktop, font, color, and update interval.
Changes: A silly bug where scanf was being used to copy default values
instead of strncpy was fixed. The code now always sets up default
configurations before reading the user config file so that settings always
have a default if the user config doesn't specify one. Shadow and no_loop
options were added.

[052] - PHP/JavaScript interpreter 0.01011
by milky (http://freshmeat.net/users/milky/)
Thu, Jan 27th 2005 11:58
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
Software Development :: Interpreters
About: The PHP JavaScript interpreter is intended to be embedded into
CMS/Wiki engines to allow users to inject server-side executable code as
Web site extensions. This is possible because scripts run safely in a
sandbox, while interfaces to the hosting interpreters environment and
resources were still allowed. The language looks like a mix of PHP and
EcmaScript, but does not reach for completeness. It also runs magnitudes
slower than a real interpreter.
Changes: This experimental release introduces support for variable scopes
with the var statement and adds user function definitions. The older
bytecode interpreter has fallen behind the accelerator and may only work
partially in this version.

Software Development :: Build Tools
System :: Software Distribution Tools
Utilities
About: Pre Make Kit (PMK) aims to be a BSD alternative to GNU autoconf,
GNU libtool, and pkg-config. It uses data files instead of scripts to
limit the spreading of trojans in software packages. It's designed to be
easy to use for users and developers. For better portability and
efficiency, all of the components are written in C. Requirements are a
POSIX system, a C compiler, a POSIX shell, and a make tool.
Changes: This release includes privilege separation for pmksetup when used
with root privileges. CPU detection support for IA64 and Alpha processors
has been added. The decision to keep the original path separator (":") has
been taken to keep compatibility and to avoid too much useless processing
of the data. This change means that you absolutely need to update your
pmk.conf before using pmk.

Thu, Jan 27th 2005 09:33
Internet :: File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
About: Walker is a Python script that updates entire Web sites. It matches

added locally. The default deletion of files and directories can be
overridden on the command line. Walker allows you to update your entire
site by going online and then running one command in a terminal. It also
includes Scpper.py, which updates a site in a similar manner, using scp.

[074] - Wi.Ser Beta 0.6.1
by dvdw (http://freshmeat.net/users/dvdw/)
Thu, Jan 27th 2005 09:02
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
About: Wi.Ser is a Java/XML server-side GUI-framework which enables an
application to run as either a monolithic Swing app, a client/server Swing
app, or as a Web app without any change. It includes a mixed deployment
mode, which supports one server to serve Swing clients and Web clients at
the same time. The framework uses XML to define an application's GUI. It
provides a common widget-based, object-oriented programming interface for
Web and Swing GUIs, which prevents the developer from struggling with HTML
and HTTP or with the internals of Swing. For Swing client/server
applications the client/server split as well as the client/server
communication is handled transparently by the framework. The project
includes a GUI builder that is based on the framework's functionality
(screenshot, deployed as a Web/HTML application).
Changes: A new slider widget (for Swing and Web/HTML clients) has been
added. Some minor bugs were corrected.

[075] - Wiclear 0.7-beta4
by David Jobet (http://freshmeat.net/users/djobet/)
Thu, Jan 27th 2005 03:36
About: Wiclear aims to provide a simple, small, and accessible wiki. It
supports the XHTML and CSS W3C specifications. There is a simple install
program and an admin panel. All content is classified via a tree-like
structure. The wiki in itself is easily themeable (same capabilities as
dotclear), is multilingual, commentable, and supports history, diffs, and
editions. There are several types of users: admins, moderators, and simple
users. Moderators and admins can edit ACLs to reduce the number of people
allowed to modify a particular page. They can remove comments or
particular version of the content. Admins can edit/delete users, create
groups, edit them, set global rights (anonymous post, anonymous comments,
etc.), change themes, etc.
Changes: This release added content deletion, a reworked language removal
system, and the ability to restore current content to the latest entry of
history. Preview is now optional and is configurable in admin panel. Fixes
were made to language management and UTF-8 support.
