[002] - ACE 5.4.5 (Development)
  by imipak (http://freshmeat.net/users/imipak/)
  Fri, Mar 4th 2005 04:21

Software Development :: Libraries

About: The ADAPTIVE Communication Environment (ACE) is an object-oriented
(OO) C++ framework that can help you develop and deploy high-performance
software systems faster and better. ACE is especially useful for systems
that use network and/or inter-process communications and that take
advantage of multithreading. While the ACE source code is free, that's not
the only way you save money with ACE. ACE's wrappers and higher-level
patterns help you develop your software quickly and portably, helping you
to complete your projects on time and within budget.

Changes: Both static and shared libraries now work correctly with 
VxWorks. The build scripts have been replaced. gets() and 
ACE_Unbounded_Set_Ex have been removed. C++ cast  macros are now used
instead of ACE ones. Autoconf support  was improved. Bugs in TSS emulation
were fixed.

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Site Management
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Presentation

About: AnotherScrapBook is a static Website generator. It can  currently
handle (almost) all kinds of pictures, as well as  MJPEG films as
typically generated by a digital camera. 

Changes: This release is more or less completely object-oriented, and a
lot of things have been simplified and streamlined. The main change for
the user is that interactive modifications and generation of the Web pages
and files have been properly separated, eliminating the long pauses between
two questions.

Security :: Cryptography

About: Ciphire Mail is an email encryption tool. It works in conjunction
with your existing email client. It operates seamlessly in the background
and does not interfere with normal email routines. It encrypts and
decrypts email messages, and can digitally sign each message to provide
authentication and guard against identity theft. It resides on your
computer, between your email client and your email server, transparently
encrypting/decrypting and digitally signing your email communication. It
runs on Windows 2000/XP, Linux, and Mac OS X. It is compatible with all
email clients using standard SMTP, POP3, or IMAP4 (including SSL/TLS
variants and STARTTLS support). It is free for consumers, non-profit
organizations, and the press.

Changes: Less intrusive defaults for incoming email markup. Configuration
to only mark secured/signed messages. Speed improvements when scanning big
IMAP folders. Opening the options screen without an active key is possible.
On Mac OS, the menu icon is disabled until Ciphire Mail is running, a
broken floating icon is eliminated, there is an animation fix for
Mail.app, optimisation for automatic software updates, and improved
multiple user handling. On Windows, an explanation for manual upgrade has
been added (first uninstall). There are several minor bugfixes.

[009] - Domain Technologie Control 0.17.0-R2 
  by Thomas Goirand (http://freshmeat.net/users/zigo/)
  Fri, Mar 4th 2005 06:25

Communications :: Email :: Post-Office :: IMAP
Communications :: Email :: Post-Office :: POP3
Internet :: File Transfer Protocol (FTP)

About: Domain Technologie Control (DTC) is a Web-based control panel for
hosting that can delegate the task of creating subdomains, email, and FTP
accounts to users for the domain names they own. It has support for many
programs, including bind 8 and 9, MySQL, Apache, PHP 4, qmail, Postfix,
Courier, Dovecot, ProFTPD, Webalizer, and mod-log-sql. It can also
generate backup scripts, calculation scripts, and config files using a
single system UID/GID, and monitor all traffic accounting per user and per
service. It is fully skinnable and translated into several languages.

Changes: A bug in the database table structure creation of the installer
has been found. It prevented the panel from initializing the subdomain
table correctly, so the Apache vhosts generation was broken at
installation. This bug touched partially on upgrading the panel. Details
are available on the project's forum.

Software Development :: Libraries
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
Software Development :: Object Brokering

About: elemenope is an Enterprise Application Integration, Service
Oriented Architecture, and general messaging framework. It provides the
capability for massive decoupling of an enterprise's components through
standardized interfaces for communications. It provides complete
abstraction of both transmission protocol and functional components. A
project may connect components via a particular protocol standard, and
completely change the protocol technology deployed with a simple change to
a configuration file, i.e. no code changes. It implements the following
connector sets: JMS, SOAP, XML-RPC, direct call, and native IBM MQSeries.
It allows an organization to easily create a large scale multi-platform
application to conduct messaging or transaction processing. It simplifies
architecture of large systems by standardizing functional components and
message pathways.  

Changes: This release adds the reorganization of base interfaces for
complete transmission protocol and functional transparency, the addition
of new connectors (direct/blocking call connector and SOAP Web services
connector), and new framework features for configurable dispatcher (send)
failover and complete protocol transparency for transmission and receipt
of messages.

bell-shaped functions (Gaussian, Loretzian, Pearson 7, Voigt,
Pseudo-Voigt) and polynomials, but more sophisticated formulae can be
easily added if necessary. It also enables background substracting, data
calibration, and task automation with a simple script language. It is
being developed to analyze powder diffraction patterns, but is also used
in chromatography, photoluminescence, infrared, and Raman spectroscopy,
and can be used to fit analytical functions to any kind of data. The most
similar program to Fityk is probably PeakFit.

[072] - XOM 1.1 alpha 2 
  by Elliotte Rusty Harold (http://freshmeat.net/users/elharo/)
  Fri, Mar 4th 2005 14:04

Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
Text Processing :: Markup :: XML
Text Processing :: Markup :: XSL/XSLT

About: XOM is an XML object model. It is a tree-based API for processing
XML with Java that simultaneously supports streaming. In many use-cases,
it can process arbitrarily large documents with effectively constant
memory sizes. It strives for correctness, simplicity, and performance, in
that order. XOM supports XSLT, Canonical XML, and XInclude. 

Changes: Aside from one very minor bugfix in XOMTestCase, the primary
focus of this release is XPath. In particular, XPath execution is about an
order of magnitude faster, several bugs in parsing and interpretation of
location paths have been squashed, and a new XPathTypeException subclass
of XPathException is thrown when an XPath expression returns something
other than a node-set.
