RegexKit is an Objective-C framework for regularexpressions using the PCRE library for Mac OS XCocoa and GNUstep. It includes an extensivecollection of category additions for the NSArray,NSDictionary, NSSet, and NSString Foundationobjects.License:BSD License (revised)Changes:This releases is a bugfix/workaround for Safari 3 users downloading .dmg files from sourceforge, which Safari 3 incorrectly identifies as .bz2 files. As a workaround, the .dmg is placed inside a .tar file. Mac Safari 3 users should download this release if they encountered this issue. This release also includes support for Xcode 3.0 DocSet subscriptions to the RegexKit documentation. Once you subscribe, Xcode will notify you and update the RegexKit documentation automatically.
Simple Settings Dialog (ssd) enables a scriptauthor to easily construct a simple dialog (e.g.for configuration purposes) that can be bepresented to the user during script execution. Itis build on QT4 and implements the most commonlyused widgets from QT. It is intended forsysadmins for scripting purposes. The goals arethat creation of a dialog should be done in veryfew lines, and the output from ssd (when the userhas made his/her choice) should be simple andparseable by bash. The code (or markup) for ssdcan either be stored in a separate file orembedded in the bash script, allowing one-filescripting.
Rally is a part of the Crow Designer project, andwas developed as a sample GuiLoader-basedapplication. This front end provides RPM packagemanagement functionality via an intuitivetree-less graphical interface. Users are able tobrowse available repositories, search forpackages, and perform updates, installations, andremovals. Rally employs Parallel Installer, whichdownloads and updates packages simultaneously,potentially reaching a vast performance boost. Thename of this application reflects its orientationfor speedy and reliable processing.
CUPS provides a portable printing layer for Unix(r)-based operating systems. It has been developed to promote a standard printing solution for all Unix vendors and users. CUPS provides the System V and Berkeley command line interfaces, and uses the Internet Printing Protocol ("IPP") as the basis for managing print jobs and queues. The Line Printer Daemon (LPD) Server Message Block (SMB), and AppSocket (a.k.a. JetDirect) protocols are also supported with reduced functionality. CUPS adds network printer browsing and PostScript Printer Description ("PPD") based printing options to support real world printing under UNIX. It includes an image file RIP that supports printing of image files to non-PostScript printers. A customized version of GNU Ghostscript 7.05 for CUPS called ESP Ghostscript is available separately to support printing of PostScript files within the CUPS driver framework. Sample drivers for Dymo, EPSON, HP, and OKIDATA printers are included that use these filters.License:GNU General Public License v2Changes:This release fixes a buffer overflow bug along with some localization, authentication, and printing bugs.
Nagios (formerly Netsaint) is a daemon written in C that is designedto monitor networked hosts and services. It has the ability to notifycontacts (via email, pager or other methods) when problems arise andare resolved. Host and service checks are performed by external"plugins", making it easy to write custom checks in your language ofchoice. Several CGIs are included in order to allow you to view thecurrent and historical status via a Web browser, and a WAP interfaceis also provided to allow you to acknowlege problems and disablenotifications from an internet-ready cellphone.License:GNU General Public License (GPL)Changes:Cleanup of the logging API, macro generation and processing logic, and internal data structures. Fixes for various segfaults and bugs with scheduled downtime, freshness checks, object inheritance, and mutex access.
Cibyl is a programming environment that allowscompiled C programs to execute on J2ME-capablephones. Cibyl uses GCC to compile the C programsto MIPS binaries, and these are then recompiledinto Java bytecode. The programs are not parsedduring runtime, and Cibyl is therefore relativelywell-performing. With Cibyl, games written in Ccan be ported to J2ME without switching language.License:GNU General Public License (GPL)Changes:Some code refactoring and cleanup, a workaround for a bug on SonyEricsson phones, and a minor bugfix in register allocation.
HDBC provides an abstraction layer between Haskellprograms and SQL relational databases. This letsyou write database code once, in Haskell, and haveit work with any number of backend SQL databases(MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, ODBC-compliantdatabases, etc.) HDBC is modeled loosely onPerl's DBI interface, though it has also beeninfluenced by Python's DB-API v2, JDBC in Java,and HSQL in Haskell.License:GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL)Changes:This release adds strict versions of several functions. The spec has been changed to make metadata functions strict. SqlByteString support has been added.
GNU Classpath (essential libraries for Java) is a project to create free core class libraries for use with virtual machines and compilers for the Java programming language. It includes all native methods and core classes necessary for a completely functional execution environment. License:GNU General Public License (GPL)Changes:Small compile, configure, and build fixes.
The Geospatial Data Abstraction Library (GDAL) is a unifying C/C++ API for accessing raster geospatial data, and currently includes formats like GeoTIFF, Erdas Imagine, Arc/Info Binary, CEOS, DTED, GXF, and SDTS. It is intended to provide efficient access, suitable for use in viewer applications, and also attempts to preserve coordinate systems and metadata. Python, C, and C++ interfaces are available.License:MIT/X Consortium LicenseChanges:Many bugfixes, large and small.
WordPress is a state-of-the-art, semantic, personal publishing platform with a focus on aesthetics, Web standards, and usability. It was born out of a desire for an elegant, well-architected personal publishing system. While primarily geared towards functioning as a Weblog, WordPress is also a flexible CMS capable of managing many types of Web sites. In addition to the basic blog functions, it also has an integrated link manager (e.g. for blogrolls), file attachments, XFN support, support for stand-alone pages, Atom and RSS feeds for both content and comments, blogging API support (Atom Publishing Protocol, Blogger, MetaWeblog, and Movable Type APIs), spam blocking features, advanced cruft-free URL generation, a flexible theme system, and an advanced plugin API.License:GNU General Public License (GPL)Changes:This release contains a security update that is important for sites that still run with register_globals turned on (which you shouldn't do anyway). There are also several bugfixes and enhancements, including improved SQL performance for tag intersection queries, tagging support for Windows Live Writer, and improved email address extraction in wp-mail.php (post-by-email).
Tor is a network of virtual tunnels that allows people and groups to improve their privacy and security on the Internet. It also enables software developers to create new communication tools with built-in privacy features. It provides the foundation for a range of applications that allow organizations and individuals to share information over public networks without compromising their privacy. Individuals can use it to keep remote Websites from tracking them and their family members. They can also use it to connect to resources such as news sites or instant messaging services that are blocked by their local Internet service providers (ISPs). License:BSD License (revised)Changes:This release fixes many problems including crash bugs, problems with hidden service introduction that were causing huge delays, and a big bug that was causing some servers to disappear from the network status lists for a few hours each day.
HTTP Time Protocol is a time synchronization tool that uses Web server responses (HTTP headers) instead of the NTP protocol. If you are behind a corporate firewall, NAT device, or proxy server, HTP will still be able to synchronize the time.For high precision time synchronization, use ntpd.License:GNU General Public License (GPL)Changes:This release fixes an issue with the clock being set incorrectly on Microsoft Windows during Daylight Savings Time.
