About: /etc/net represents a new approach to Linux network configuration
tasks. Inspired by the limitations of traditional configuration
subsystems, /etc/net provides builtin support for configuration profiles,
interface name management, removable device support, full iproute2 command
set support, interface dependency resolution, and a QoS configuration
framework. /etc/net provides support for the following interface types:
Ethernet, WiFi (WEP), IPv6/IPv6 tunnels, PSK IPSec tunnels, VLAN, PLIP,
Ethernet bonding and bridging, traffic equalizer, Pent@NET, usbnet, and
PPP. Due to its modular design, support for new interface types can be
added without overall design changes.
Changes: A bug in network.init and a bug in ifplugd start were fixed.

[008] - Chronic 0.30
by Vipul Ved Prakash (http://freshmeat.net/users/hackworth/)
Tue, Apr 26th 2005 11:18
System :: Monitoring
System :: Systems Administration
About: Chronic is a constraints-based opportunistic application-level
scheduler. Unlike cron, which schedules according to a time
specification, it schedules tasks when specified constraints are met. In
other words, it schedules during a window of opportunity when the
circumstances are favorable.
Changes: "Ping" constraint was introduced. The constraint sends a single
ICMP ping to a given address, and is considered met if an ICMP packet is
successfully received. "Concurrent'' constraint was introduced. The
constraint keeps a tab on the number of concurrent processes of a
specified application. A "safe_sleep'' time was introduced at the end of
the scheduler's while() loop. This stops the scheduler to go into a tight
loop every time there are a few microseconds of latency between task_wait
and Freq constraint.

[012] - CollaborativeRank 0.1.2
by Amir Michail (http://freshmeat.net/users/amir/)
Tue, Apr 26th 2005 03:31
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Indexing/Search
About: CollaborativeRank is a utility to collaboratively improve the
quality of Google rankings. It weighs a user's ranking suggestions based
on how helpful and timely the user's suggestions are, determined by others
subsequently making the same ranking suggestions. CollaborativeRank also
allows users to associate additional URLs, which are not currently
returned by Google, with a query.
Changes: This release adds Unicode support (allowing you to associate a
URL with a query in a different language). Related queries now show the
most common form of the query (rather than the query words in alphabetical
order as was done in the previous version). The number of Google results
that are combined with the local search results is now only limited by the
Google API license (whereas this number was limited to 10 URLs in the
previous version). The CollaborativeRank measure was also changed (see the
paper on the site) and some cosmetic changes were made to the Web UI.

About: Gallery Mage is a client side photo gallery management system
designed to work with online gallery display scripts such as SPGM. Using
Gallery Mage, one can select, caption, rotate, crop, resize, and upload
photos taken with a digital camera to an online photo gallery. The rotate,
crop, and resize parameters are stored as text data with the images, and
the operations are only performed on a copy of the photo while exporting,
thus preserving the original picture files. Gallery Mage provides
abstraction from the online display software.
Changes: An FTP "Please login with USER and PASS" bug has been fixed.

[033] - Gujin 1.0
by Etienne (http://freshmeat.net/users/etiennelorrain/)
Tue, Apr 26th 2005 14:36
System :: Boot :: Init
About: Gujin is a PC boot loader which can analyze your filesystems. It
finds the Linux kernel images available, as well as other bootable
partitions (for *BSD, MS-DOS, Windows, etc.), and displays a graphical
menu for selecting which system to boot. Because it understands the
structure of Linux kernel images, Gujin does not need LILO and can even
load very big kernels. There is no need to execute anything after making a
new kernel: just copy the kernel image file into the "/boot" directory.
Gujin is written almost entirely in C with GCC, and it fully executes in
real mode to be as compatible as possible.
Changes: The first stable version: fully bootable from CD-ROM/DVD, and can
boot all of them through the menu. Many bugfixes, mostly for tiny.exe.

Software Development
About: JGraph Layout Pro is the next generation of graph layout engine
designed for optimal performance with the open source JGraph core. It has
flexibility and a simple design, enabling you to use circular, tree, and
force-directed layouts with ease in your JGraph application. It comes with
an application note and an example applet that demonstrates features such
as auto-layout, collapsing/expanding of grouped cells, graph morphing, and
selective laying out of sub-graphs.
Changes: A switch, positionMultipleTrees, was added to the tree layout to
enable multiple trees to be laid out without lapping.
JGraphFacade.getCells only returns connected edges, as unconnected edges
cause incorrect results in all layouts. A fix was made to the morphing
functionality to resolve an incompatibility with JGraph 5.4.7. A number of
corrections were made to the application note.

[063] - Shadow 4.0.8
by kloczek (http://freshmeat.net/users/kloczel/)
Tue, Apr 26th 2005 07:34
System :: Systems Administration
About: The Shadow password file utilities package includes the programs
necessary to convert traditional V7 UNIX password files to the SVR4 shadow
password format, and additional tools to maintain password and group files
(that work with both shadow and non-shadow passwords).
Changes: Support for OPIE, SKEY, NDMB, kerberos, and des_rpc was removed
since it was not working. SElinux fixes were made for chage, chfn, chsh,
and passwd. The man pages were synchronized. Many minor cleanups were made
in the man pages. Translation updates were made for the cs, da, es, eu, fi,
fr, it, ko, nl, pl, pt, sk, and uk locales. A tl translation was added. A
potential security problem when a mailbox is created in useradd was fixed.
The use of SU_WHEEL_ONLY was fixed. A race condition in vipw was fixed.

[065] - SOPE Application Server 4.4beta.6
by OpenGroupware.org (http://freshmeat.net/users/helge5/)
Tue, Apr 26th 2005 05:24
Software Development :: Libraries
Text Processing :: Markup :: XML
About: The SOPE package is an extensive set of frameworks (16 frameworks,
~1500 classes) which form a complete Web application server environment.
Besides the Apple WebObjects compatible appserver extended with Zope
concepts, it contains a large set of reusable classes: XML processing
(SAX, DOM, XML-RPC), MIME/IMAP4 processing, LDAP connectivity, RDBMS
connectivity, and iCalendar parsing. The parts of the package can be used
stand-alone (e.g. in Cocoa applications) and do not require the appserver
parts. For MacOSX developers, the package includes SOPE:X, which contains
special Xcode and Cocoa support for SOPE.
Changes: A major last minute change is the inclusion of a working MySQL
adaptor for sope-gdl1. Some minor issues were fixed, like some to/cc
generation issue in NGMime (bug #1324), a fix to submit button handling,
and some fixes to improve XHTML compliance.

About: SQLgrey is a Postfix greylisting policy service with auto-
whitelisting and an SQL database as storage backend. It is based on
postgrey, refining auto-whitelisting and storing whitelists and
connection attempts in a database. Its goal is reducing the amount of spam
reaching user mailboxes.
Changes: The logging is improved (split into configurable categories). A
bugfix for the auto-whitelists with VERP and SRS improves the
auto-whitelist performance.

[068] - t-prot 2.0-rc2
by Jochen Striepe (http://freshmeat.net/users/jstr0051/)
Tue, Apr 26th 2005 07:41
Communications :: Email :: Filters
About: t-prot (TOFU Protection) is a filter which improves the readability
of email messages and Usenet posts by hiding some of their annoying parts.
The annoyances it handles include mailing list footers, signatures, TOFU,
sequences of blank lines, and repeated punctuation. TOFU is an acronym
that stands for "Text oben, Fullquote unten", a German reference to the
practice of adding just a few lines of original text and quoting a
complete message below them.
Changes: The handling of mailing list and commercial footers in raw
MIME/Multipart messages was fixed.

[069] - talloc 1.0
by tridge (http://freshmeat.net/users/tridge/)
Tue, Apr 26th 2005 03:31
Software Development :: Libraries
About: talloc is a small wrapper around malloc that makes memory
hierarchical. It is similar to a standard memory pool system, but much
more powerful as any pointer returned by talloc is also a pool. This
allows you to hang structures off other structures in an intuitive
fashion, and free up a whole subtree of memory with one call. talloc also
features type safety, destructors, and many helper functions.
Changes: This release features improved docs, plus minor functional
additions.

[072] - Toolserver Framework for Python 0.3.6
by Georg Bauer (http://freshmeat.net/users/gbauer/)
Tue, Apr 26th 2005 04:12
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: HTTP Servers
Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
About: The Toolserver Framework for Python is a Medusa-based Web server
with added dynamic multithreading and support for easy object publication
via SOAP, XML-RPC, and REST.
Changes: The main focus of this release was to smooth it out with
features. Primary tasks were better (and extensible) RPC mechanisms,
integration of WSGI, better and more complete authentication mechanisms
(optionally RSA authentication if you install pycrypto), and an IPC
mechanism that uses the same hooks as the RPC mechanisms. Additionally
there is now an abstract client that supports advanced features like
deflate encoding.

[075] - tvmet 1.7.1 (Stable)
by Olaf Petzold (http://freshmeat.net/users/opetzold/)
Tue, Apr 26th 2005 10:41
Scientific/Engineering
Scientific/Engineering :: Mathematics
Software Development
About: This Tiny Vector and Matrix template library uses Meta Templates
and Expression Templates (ET) to evaluate results at compile time, thus
making it fast for low-end systems. Temporaries are avoided because of
this. The produced code is similar to hand-coded code, but the quality of
the code still depends on the compiler and its version. The dimensions for
vectors and matrices are static and bounded at compile time using template
arguments.
Changes: tvmet now compiles with gcc 3.4.3 (there was a problem with the
comma initializer list). The docs and regression tests have been
enhanced/corrected.
