About: Pagecast submits lists of URLs to various search engines such as AltaVista, Infoseek, Excite, Google, etc. to be indexed. It can run from the command-line or as a mail-robot (email a list of URLs to pagecast@yourmachine). It has a few advanced features such as the ability to rate a URL's keyword-to-title relevance and fix broken meta tags. Changes: This is a development release not intended for casual users. Anyone who is interested in previewing the features that will be availible in version 2.x should check this out, but beware; few server definitions are implemented, but it should be easy enough to roll your own. Changes in this alpha release include full proxy support, plug-in server architecture, and preliminary groups support.
About: gFTP is a free multithreaded file transfer client for *NIX based machines running X11R6 or later. It has text and GTK+ 1.2/2.x interfaces and supports the FTP, FTPS (control connection only), HTTP, HTTPS, FSP, and SSH protocols and has FTP and HTTP proxy server support. It supports UNIX, EPLF, Novell, MacOS, VMS, MVS, and NT (DOS) style directory listings, and has a bookmarks menu that allows you to quickly connect to remote sites.

It has many features and can be used in scripts (e.g. PHP, Perl, Ruby, Lua, and Python) for dynamic image generation. PHP users should note that PHP 4.3.x includes its own distribution of gd, which is currently the best choice for PHP applications.
About: The NET-SNMP (formerly UCD-SNMP) package contains various tools relating to the Simple Network Management Protocol including an extensible agent, an SNMP library, tools to request or set information from SNMP agents, tools to generate and handle SNMP traps, a version of the unix 'netstat' command using SNMP and a Tk/perl mib browser. It was originally based on the Carnegie Mellon University SNMP implementation (version 2.1.2.1), but has been greatly enhanced, ported and fixed and barely resembles the original package anymore. Changes: Huge number of changes. Briefly: SNMPv3 support, complete agent rewrite, alpha level AgentX support, syslog support in the agent, "make test" support, more configurable options, etc...
About: GAG is a Graphical Boot Manager with a lot of features. It doesn't need a partition, it works with primary and extended partitions in every hard disk, it has a lot of icons, it allows you to put passwords for each operating system, it can swap hard disks and it can be tested from diskette. The SafeBoot feature allows you to boot your hard disk even if GAG is overwritten. It includes extensive support for many languages and keyboard types. Changes: Fixed a translation bug in the Brazilian Portuguese version. Now it can be installed in hard disk pressing the 'I' key, as say the menu, instead the 'H' key (sorry). Fixed a 'security hole' with SafeBoot. See README.TXT file for details.
About: Midgard is a freely-available solution for managing content on Web, Extranet, and Intranet services. It is also a toolkit for building dynamic applications to power eBusiness and Information Management processes. Writing applications and functionalities for the platform is done using the easy-to-learn PHP scripting language. All interfacing with the system is done via a regular Web browser, and no special tools are needed for developers or content authors. Changes: The 1.2.1 release of Midgard contains some bug fixs and minor new features over the 1.2 release. The most notable new features are support for plaintext passwords and the possibility to compile mod_midgard statically with Apache using the --add-module configure option.
About: pydf displays the amount of used and available space on your filesystems, just like df, but in colours. The output format is completely customizable. Changes: Fixed typo messing up formatting of small sizes.
About: GProc is a GTK application which allows you to manage your running processes with only a few mouse clicks. It is very configurable and uses skins for better integration with your desktop.

Collaborative tools may be added on a directory basis (one forum, one chat and one shared calendar per directory). Changes: Online change of user's Password now available.
About: Memchan is an extension library to the script language Tcl, as created by John Ousterhout. It provides two new channel types for in-memory channels and the appropriate commands for their creation. They are useful to transfer large amounts of data between procedures or interpreters, and additionally provide an easy interface to on-the-fly generation of code too. No need to set or append to a string, just do a simple puts. Changes: This new major version drops support for Tcl 7.6 or older. The last version of memchan supporting the 7.x series is 1.9 and still available from the site. No other changes were made.
About: pyChing is a program that allows you to 'consult' the I Ching. The I Ching is an ancient Chinese book of wisdom, which, apart from being read as a book, has also traditionally been consulted as an oracle. pyChing allows you to perform an I Ching 'reading' using the coin oracle, and then look up a brief interpretation from the I Ching. pyChing is completely written in Python, a cross platform, object oriented, programming language, using the Tkinter interface to the Tk GUI toolkit. Changes: First public release.
About: Aglaophone is a system of interconnectable modules for the recording, processing, and playback of real-time audio. It features a real-time spectrogram display for visualization along with a number of processing modules. Modules include filters, downsamplers, upsamplers, and quantizers. An MP3 comparison module allows interactive blind comparison of MP3 encoded audio with CD audio, demonstrations of spectral imaging, quantization, and Smith-Barnwell filter bank based wavelet decomposition are included, and there is a module that can perform an automatic spectral analysis of a speaker system. Changes: New filtering/upsampling/downsampling modules, simplified protocol, improved documentation, more demos.
About: Blackbox is yet another addition to the list of window managers for X. It is written in C++, sharing no common code with any other window manager (even though the graphics implementation is similar to that of WindowMaker). It features small code size, a fast interface with simple menus, multiple workspaces, decorated windows, built-in graphics code to render solids, gradients, and bevels on the fly, and more. Changes: Bug fixes and addition of [stylesdir] and [stylesmenu] menu syntax keys. See the ChangeLog for details.
About: Memtest-86 is a very thorough stand-alone memory test for x86 and Pentium systems (and compatibles). It currently does 11 tests to fully determine whether you have faulty RAM or not.
About: Genius is an arbitrary precision integer and multiple precision floating point calculator. It includes its own programming language similar in some aspects to C, bc, or Pascal. It can deal with rational numbers and complex numbers. It has matrix support as well. It uses the gmp library so it is very fast for calculations of large numbers. It has a command line and a GNOME interface. The GNOME interface supports plotting functions and 3D surfaces. Changes: Modular arithmetic support (e.g. "expr mod n"), plugin toplevel command, better command line file parsing, exp function now behaves properly for matrices (sort of), setting calculator parameters is now more natural, just as setting variables, option for maximum line output length for expression output, and for maximum number of errors printed, backdivision for matrices (e.g. X=A\B means A*X=B), and of course bug and portability fixes.
About: CMan is a rolodex type of application. This version is english only, an international/non-international GUI version for various platforms is to be released late this fall. For more information, please consult the web site. Changes: Minor fixes and build script included.

It keeps a local database and can access remote CD databases to retrieve or submit your disc information. It allows you to pick your choice of compression type, multiple preference sets (play lists and skip lists), ability to store volumes for a particular CD, and read-only access to old sadp, Workman, and xmcd-style data bases. Changes: Added submission to remote CD data bases, 16bit sound support, GAIN parameter to control spectrum analyser bar height Improved and tooltips now disappear and reappear according to specified time values.
