dbus-cxx 0.4.1
dbus-cxx is a C++ wrapper for dbus that supports introspection and includes a proxy/adapter generator (dbus-cxx-xml2cpp). What differentiates dbus-cxx from other C++ wrappers is that dbus-cxx relies heavily on sigc++ and explicitly exposes the wrapped D-Bus C API.
Changes: This release adds support to dbus-cxx-xml2cpp for allowing proxies to multiply inherit virtual interfaces. An example demonstrating how to use this feature can be found in examples/xml2cpp/calculator-interface. Additionally, a few warnings were cleaned up, including one regarding unused values when debugging output is turned off.
Granite Data Services 2.0.0.SP1
Granite Data Services (GDS) is an alternative to Adobe LiveCycle (Flex 2) Data Services for J2EE application servers. The primary goal of this project is to provide a framework for Flex 2+/EJB3/Seam/Spring/Guice/Pojo application development with full AMF3/RemoteObject benefits. It also features a Comet-like Data Push implementation (AMF3 requests sent over HTTP) and ActionScript3 code generation tools (Ant task and Eclipse Builder).
Changes: This is a minor bugfix release.
Source-Highlight-Qt 0.1
Source-highlight-qt is a library for performing syntax highlighting in Qt documents by relying on the GNU Source-Highlight library. It provides an implementation of the Qt abstract class QSyntaxHighlighter class, and it deals both with Qt3 and Qt4, although you will need to build a separate version of the library for the two different Qt framework versions. The Qt3 version has fewer features and it is there only for old Qt applications. Furthermore, the QSyntaxHighlighter class in Qt3 has some design problems which make it quite inefficient to use.
Changes: This is the initial release.
GROUP-E 1.705
GROUP-E is collaboration software which integrates groupware, project management, and business server on one platform. The solution is based on a LAMP architecture (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP). GROUP-E offers project management, transparent Samba (file server) integration, integration of Cyrus IMAP server with administration and personal SIEVE filters, support for SyncML 1.0, LDAP-based user management with single sign-on authentication, and LDAP contact databases.
Changes: Several minor bugs were fixed. A DAV interface was added for the internal file manager. Mass editing of adresses was added. Searching for mailfolders was made faster. Email messages can be exported as .eml files. User email adresses can be assigned for absence messages. Complete icalendar support was added (for importing and exporting ICS). Supplementary rejecting of appointments and tasks was implemented.
schily 2009-07-06
The "Schily" Tool Box is a set of tools written or managed by Jörg Schilling. It includes programs like: cdrecord, cdda2wav, readcd, mkisofs, smake, bsh, btcflash, calc, calltree, change, compare, count, devdump, hdump, isodebug, isodump, isoinfo, isovfy, label, mt, p, sccs, scgcheck, scpio, sdd, sfind, sformat, smake, sh, star, star_sym, suntar, gnutar, tartest, termcap, and ved.
Changes: Wide char support now works on Mac OS X. The command line history editor from bsh (also used by the included Bourne Shell) now correctly uses wcwidth() to compute the visible char width (which is needed for Japanese chars). sdd now supports a -md5 option. libxtermcap now correctly checks for octal numbers in \ooo escapes. The termcap compiler now includes much better checks for correct syntax in the termcap entries, as well as checks for correct quoting in string parameters and for correct format specifiers in parameterized strings. Cdrtools was bumped to 2.01.01a61.
Alfresco 3.2
Alfresco is an enterprise content management (ECM) application that provides document management, collaboration, records management, knowledge management, Web content management, and imaging. It includes a content repository, an out-of-the-box Web portal framework for managing and using standard portal content, a CIFS interface that provides file system compatibility on Microsoft Windows and Unix-like operating systems, a Web content management system capable of virtualizing Web apps and static sites via Apache Tomcat, Lucene indexing, and jBPM workflow.
Changes: Mobile content management was enabled. Email and document management were enhanced. New and enhanced support was added for open specifications and standards, including CMIS and IMAP.
cdrtools 2.01.01a61
cdrtools (formerly cdrecord) creates home-burned CDs/DVDs with a CDR/CDRW/DVD recorder. It works as a burn engine for several applications. It supports CD/DVD recorders from many different vendors; all SCSI-3/mmc- and ATAPI/mmc-compliant drives should also work. Supported features include IDE/ATAPI, parallel port, and SCSI drives, audio CDs, data CDs, and mixed CDs, full multi-session support, CDRWs (rewritable), DVD-R/-RW, DVD+R/+RW, TAO, DAO, RAW, and human-readable error messages. cdrtools includes remote SCSI support and can access local or remote CD/DVD writers.
Changes: Support for 64-bit compilation on Mac OS X was added. Some workarounds were added to cdda2wav for Solaris USB driver bugs. The mkisofs manual now prints correctly with GNU troff. Isoinfo now allows automated processing of the output even if the time stamps on the medium contain illegal months.
checksysreport 1.0-6
checksysreport performs some automatic tests against a directory containing an untarred Red Hat Enterprise Linux sysreport. You will need a valid Red Hat Network login in order to use it, as it fetches information from RHN using the RHN API (see https://rhn.redhat.com/rpc/api/). A graphical tool, yadarh, is also included: it uses the cache generated by checksysreport to display RPMs in a given channel and lets you browse them to have a list of errata and new entries in changelogs that come with other versions of the same package.
Changes: Dmidecode information about the system is printed. Some packages were not considered as coming from RHN when present in several RHN channels. WCS spool was stuck if there was a problem with the local MTA. A configuration section was added in the man page. Plugins can be automatically launched.
AgileWiki 16.2.0
AgileWiki is a composable platform for advanced Web-based and P2P networks. It allows multiple points of entry, where each node is an information fusion system with controlled access, pluggable applications, and native deductive reasoning.
Changes: Twits now subclass Chats and the twits view shows only twits. The new chat and chats views provide a time-based display. The new forum view gives a thread view with nested replies. You can now follow any Rolon, not just User Rolons.
Aluminium Language 0.4
Aluminium was started as an effort to find a different way of creating Web applications. It turned out as a visual data-flow based programming language.
Changes: This release introduces Aluminium Constructor, the Aluminium application editor. A few conceptual changes were made to the language.
Instavue 1.4
Instavue extracts the Instaviz diagrams from the user's iPhone or iPod Touch backups. The user can then choose to print the diagrams or export them to any of these vector and bitmap formats: BMP, EPS, GIF, Graphviz, JPEG, PNG, PostScript, SVG, TIFF, Visio VDX, or VML. Mac users can also export to these additional formats: JPEG2000, OpenEXR, Photoshop, PDF, Quickdraw, Silicon Graphics or TGA. Windows users can also export to the EMF (Enhanced Metafile) format.
Changes: A problem in which graphs were not appearing from iTunes 8.2 backups was fixed.
Bean 2.3.1
Bean is a rich text editor with many niceties added to make writing convenient, efficient, and comfortable. It is, to use a horrible cliché, Text Edit on steroids. It uses Apple's NSText object to do most of what it does, but adds live word count, the ability to adjust printed margins, and lots of other bells and whistles.
Changes: A bug involving the Line Spacing control in Preferences was fixed.
BuGLe 0.0.20090706
BuGLe combines a graphical OpenGL debugger with a selection of filters on the OpenGL command stream. The debugger allows viewing of state, textures, framebuffers, and shaders, while the filters allow for logging, error checking, free camera control, video capture, and more.
Changes: This release just fixes compilation problems with the newest glext.h. If you have successfully installed the previous version, there is no need to upgrade.
GLib 2.21.3
GLib is a library containing many useful C routines for things such as trees, hashes, and lists. GLib was previously distributed with the GTK toolkit, but has been split off as of the developers' version 1.1.0.
Changes: GMappedFile is now refcounted. In Mainloop it is now possible to set per-thread default contexts. GIO was enhanced. Several bugs were fixed.
Tinypug 0.9.3
Tinypug is a system for building portals that enables innovation communities. The idea is to go beyond one-off statistical surveys (which tend to only verify an existing paradigm) to foster real collaboration and anecdotal feedback from users/customers. A company seeking to gather more feedback on its products usually has to resort to a few existing stand-alone mechanisms such as polls and comments on product listings. But Tinypug puts all of these tools together in one place. It also makes it easier to integrate with call center applications for the active gathering of customer feedback. It's not a content management system as much as it is a feedback management system. It provides in-browser message boards, polls, surveys, and user-submitted ideas with voting. There's also a basic content system that enables you to upload and publish pages and images. You can customize the look of the site using themes and extend its functionality using add-on libraries.
Changes: This release provides a new visual display for survey results, support for downloading free text survey responses, Gravatar integration, and new user feedback CRM features. Many bugs were also fixed.
Lynx 2.8.7rel.1
Lynx is a fully-featured WWW client for users running cursor-addressable, character-cell display devices (e.g., vt100 terminals, terminal emulators running on PCs or Macs, or any other character-cell display). It will display HTML documents containing links to files on the local system, as well as files on remote systems running HTTP, HTTPS, gopher, FTP, WAIS, NNTP, finger, or cso/ph/qi servers, and services accessible via logins to telnet, tn3270, or rlogin accounts.
Changes: Many improvements to HTML parsing, rendering, and SSL support.
Flash Operator Panel 0.30
Flash Operator Panel displays information about your Asterisk PBX activity in real time via a standard Web browser with the Flash plugin. The display and button layout is configurable, so you can have more than 100 buttons on the screen at once. It also supports contexts: you can have one server running and many different client displays (for hosted PBX, different departments, etc). It can monitor several asterisk servers at once. It can integrate with CRM software, by popping up a Web page (and passing the CLID) when a specified button is ringing. It also can be used to enable click-to-dial for Web-based applications.
Changes: This release adds compatibility with Asterisk 1.6. It works with the latest flash player. It includes some new features: spy channels and passing variables to popups. There are several bugfixes.
sharktorrent 0.1.8.4
sharktorrent is a cross-platform BitTorrent client. It is written in C++ using Qt4 and Arvid Norberg's libtorrent.
Changes: Some code changes to compile with libtorrent-rasterbar 0.1.4.2.
