Tue, May 24th 2005 11:33
Communications :: File Sharing
Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Browsers
About: CGIProxy is a Perl CGI script that acts as an Internet proxy.
Through it, you can retrieve resources that may be inaccessible from your
own machine. The user is kept as anonymous as possible from any servers.
HTTP and FTP are supported, and optionally SSL. Common uses include
VPN-like setups, anonymous proxies, personal proxies, and others. Options
include text-only browsing (to save bandwidth), selective cookie and
script removal, simple ad filtering, access restriction by server, encoded
target URLs and cookies, configuration by end user, and much more
(currently about 50 config options). An online demo is available.
Changes: This is the long-awaited version that supports JavaScript, i.e.
all JavaScript that passes through this program is rewritten so that all
subsequent network accesses also pass through this program, so the browser
never makes a direct connection with the destination server. A few bugs
have been fixed.

Communications :: Fax
Printing
About: DrygerFax is a HylaFAX client for Windows which communicates
through a special server running on Linux. It employs Samba and CUPS on
the server to present a full-fleged network printer. Once a print job has
been submitted, the server calls back to the client to ask for the fax
information. Unlike some clients, this one does not need custom printer
driver software to print, since the printer is presented as a generic
Postscript printer. Unlike other clients, this one "phones home" to the
user to get information needed to fax.

Tue, May 24th 2005 08:31
Multimedia :: Graphics
Scientific/Engineering
About: EMAN is a scientific image processing suite with full Python
bindings. While it is mainly designed to perform single-particle
reconstructions of individual molecules, it may also have uses for many
other imaging methods. Single particle reconstruction is a method where
projection images of individual molecules in random orientations are
processed to produce a 3D structure of the molecule in question. The
library can process 1-3 dimensional data in a variety of formats,
including a variety of Fourier and real-space filters and many more
esoteric image processing routines.
Changes: A major overhaul of the parallelism infrastructure (runpar) was
done. It now uses fileserver for both reads and writes in the cluster
versions. A binary release was made for AMD64, and support for OSX was
improved. A new program, refine2d.py, was added for generating
reference-free class-averages from a set of particles. A new program,
makeinitialmodel.py, was added for constructing 3D models from blobs. The
AIRS software was greatly expanded and improved with Chimera bindings.
Major improvements were done to the experimental 2D crystallography
preprocessing program (qindex).

trouble ticket page views, keyword count, and a number of different
factors to simulate search engine like results for the help desk software.
A problem with plain text email support was corrected, and the trouble
ticket update page was also debugged.

[038] - Luban programming language Beta 1.3
by peterx (http://freshmeat.net/users/peterx/)
Tue, May 24th 2005 07:21
About: Luban is a component oriented scripting language. It was created to
be easier than Java and to feature namespaces and interfaces. It has a
simple and clean syntax and a property-based component model similar to
Java beans. A component can be a process or a composition. All data types
and components are saved in a namespace hierarchy. Thread dispatching and
synchronization are built in. It also features component interface
inheritance, dynamic type checking, reflection, serialization, remote
component calls, exception free error handling, and an API to import data
new types from C++.
Changes: A bug that always returned the default instance for wrong
constructor parameters was fixed. The error type is now returned
correctly. The allfuncs() member function was fixed for all data types.
The function returned a result containing some internal data type object,
and now it only contains an object of type string. A memory bugfix and
minor internal performance improvements were made.

Information Management
Information Management :: Records Management
About: Magellan Metasearch is a modular meta search engine, enabling users
to monitor as many search engines as they want and use a complex query
language with full boolean syntax and proximity operators, which is much
more elaborate than languages provided by Google, Altavista, etc. It can
be fed any sources, since its abstraction layer manages the search results
and their meta tags in a uniform way. In conjunction with the local process
scheduler (such as "cron"), Magellan enables you to save your requests and
replay them later automatically: new results are sent through email in
real time.
Changes: Many exciting new features have been added, including multi-proxy
support, several new search engine drivers, a major UI upgrade,
post-crawling analysis filters, and automated upgrade from previous
versions. There is new user and developer documentation. The internal API
is now much easier to re-use to develop custom drivers.

Software Development :: Embedded Systems
Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
About: The Open RObot COntrol Software (Orocos) framework applies
software patterns in C++ to achieve real-time execution of software
components and provides an infrastructure to quickly integrate them in a
real-time operating system such as RTAI or RTLinux, although it can be
tested on normal Linux systems. It is designed to appeal to roboticists.
See the Orocos project homepage for an automated download script.
Changes: This major feature release focused on refactoring of the API,
validation and improvement of the realtime scripting language, and
improvement of the overall realtime performance. The documentation has
been reordered to separate the "Realtime Control Services" from the "Robot
Control Software". Usability classes have been added to reduce the "red
tape" code required to setup an Orocos application. This is demonstrated
by a new demo application ("taskintro") which is fully interactive and is
hardware independent.

Internet :: Log Analysis
System :: Networking :: Monitoring
System :: Systems Administration
About: pmacct is a small set of IPv4/IPv6 accounting and aggregation
tools. Aggregation of IP traffic revolves around the concept of
primitives (VLAN id, source and destination MAC addresses, IP addresses,
networks, AS numbers, ports, ToS field, and IP protocol are supported)
that may be employed alone or arbitrarily combined with others to form
complex aggregation methods. It supports custom historical breakdown,
packet sampling, filtering and tagging, recovery actions, and triggers.
Both libpcap (and promiscuous mode if required) and NetFlow
v1/v5/v7/v8/v9 are supported.
Changes: MySQL multi-value INSERT clauses have been introduced, and they
have proven to be much faster than classic INSERTs. Dynamic SQL tables
have been introduced; the following variables are supported: %d (the day
of the month), %H (hours), %m (month), %M (minutes), %w (the day of the
week), %W (week number), and %Y (the current year). The "sql_table_schema"
directive has been added to allow the automatic creation of dynamic tables.
The --disable-l2 configure option has been added to compiled pmacct without
support for Layer-2 stuff.

[061] - Sendmail filter for SpamAssassin 1.0.0
by Eugene Kurmanin (http://freshmeat.net/users/smfs/)
Tue, May 24th 2005 00:03
About: smf-spamd is a Sendmail filter for SpamAssassin. It aims to be
lightweight, reliable, and simple rather than have a myriad of options. It
only scans the messages less than defined size, has a hosts/networks
whitelist, performs subject tagging if SPAM is detected, adds an
information header, copies SPAM messages to the defined "garbage" mailbox,
rejects SPAM messages at the SMTP DATA stage, and logs all filter
activities to syslog. The code is small (does not exceed 580 lines), fast,
stable, and few resources are required. No temporary files are created.

[062] - SharpConstruct 0.08
by NicholasBishop (http://freshmeat.net/users/NicholasBishop/)
Tue, May 24th 2005 14:41
Multimedia :: Graphics :: 3D Modeling
About: SharpConstruct is an OpenGL graphics application that supports
real-time sculpting of polygon meshes. The process is similar to
painting on a canvas in a traditional 2D image program, but with an added
dimension. Depth is simply brushed onto the model, offering an easy way
to create highly detailed meshes.
Changes: This release contains many new tools, including a new primitive
type, a new modeling brush, and a number of new deformations. Also new is
support for quads; this means that when loading a model containing quads,
it won't be converted to triangles anymore. More features have been added
to the interface, including snap-to-border dialogs.

[077] - yersinia 0.5.4
by tomac (http://freshmeat.net/users/tomac/)
Tue, May 24th 2005 14:15
Communications
Security
System :: Networking
About: Yersinia implements several attacks for the following protocols:
Spanning Tree (STP), Cisco Discovery (CDP), Dynamic Host Configuration
(DHCP), Hot Standby Router (HSRP), Dynamic Trunking (DTP), 802.1q and VLAN
Trunking (VTP). It helps the pen-tester in different tasks, such as
becoming the root role in the Spanning Tree, creating virtual CDP
neighbors, setting up rogue DHCP servers, becoming the active router in a
HSRP scenario, enabling trunk, performing ARP spoofing over VLAN hopping,
adding or deleting VLANs (via VTP), and more.
Changes: This release adds a 'g' option (for switching among modes, which
is useful if you run a window manager that manages F1, F2, etc.). An
annoying deadlock with TTY terminal and uptime thread, bad man page
examples, an annoying memory leak due to thread design, a possible bug in
term_delete_node, and htonl/ntohl issues on hsrp_send_raw have been fixed.

[078] - zoem 05-144
by Stijn van Dongen (http://freshmeat.net/users/micans/)
Tue, May 24th 2005 15:33
Documentation
Software Development :: Documentation
Text Processing :: General
About: Zoem is a macro/programming language. It can be used as an
all-round macro language, but has more specialized uses as well. One such
specific use is its support for creating small mark-up languages that map
to different devices. It has character filtering capabilities tailored to
this application. Two such languages come packaged with zoem; one for
creating manual pages that can be output either in troff or in HTML, the
other for creating FAQs again in either troff or HTML output. It supports
arithmetic evaluation, regular expressions, multidimensional data
storage, iteration, comprehensive IO, control operators, dictionary
stacks, system commands, and more.
Changes: The \begin{label} .. \end{label} environment now allows easier
definition of default settings, easier overriding of default settings, and
the declaration of keys taking arguments. This provides a simple and useful
extension mechanism for customizing environments by wrapping them, well
integrated with the environment dictionary stack framework. The \writeto
macro which resets the default output stream now considers the presence of
a path separator in the file name a risk, and obeys the --unsafe and
--unsafe-silent options.
