description:
Harpia is a topic-centric dynamic content management system.
Topic-centric design lets the user follow a logical thought through
topics to find all associated items to that topic. Each item (i.e.
news, links, FAQ, etc.) is associated with one or more topics, and then
all the items are displayed for each topic. Harpia uses a very modular
design, which allows easy modification to the core or modules.

changes:
Errors in displaying times, reading anonymously posted comments, and
updating links have been fixed. There are also bugfixes in the admin
Quote system and the menu adding.

urgency:

was why it was written).

description:
Lua is a programming language originally designed for extending
applications, but also frequently used as a general-purpose,
stand-alone language. Lua combines simple procedural syntax (similar to
Pascal) with powerful data description constructs based on associative
arrays and extensible semantics. Lua is dynamically typed, interpreted
from bytecodes, and has automatic memory management, making it ideal
for configuration, scripting, and rapid prototyping. Lua is implemented
as a small library of C functions, written in ANSI C, and compiles
unmodified in all known platforms. The implementation goals are
simplicity, efficiency, portability, and low embedding cost.

changes:
A new, simpler, fully re-entrant API, a "for" statement, faster virtual
machine, and improved error handling.

description:
The main goal of the Linux Trustees project is to create an advanced
permission management system for Linux. The solution proposed is mainly
inspired by the approach taken by Novell Netware and the Java security
API. Special objects (called trustees) can be bound to every file or
directory. The trustee object can be used to ensure that access to a
file, directory, or directory with subdirectories is granted (or
denied) to a certain user or group (or all except user or group).
Trustees are like POSIX ACLs, but trustee objects can affect entire
subdirectory trees, while ACLs a single file.

Support for 2.2.8 and 2.4.0-test12 kernels, and fixes for problems with
recent glibc that caused broken getrlimit (2.2.x kernels).

features are ease of use, allowing the user to specify arbitrary field
and line delimiters, and automatic creation of new databases and tables
on the fly.

changes:

they create rather than creating a default column titled "primary_key".

changes:
This release adds heavy code optimization, a fancy new install script
that takes care of everything, an improved multi-version uninstall
function, and automatic updating of old info in your $ENV for the new
version. It is more or less a rewrite, as the author has removed any
need for any tmp files other than the rc file itself and the uninstall
process. The prebuilts function is now handled in a separate library
file so adding new prebuilt prompts will be easier, and will soon be
automated. The custom function now works and can be used to put shell
scripts in the prompt. The tty function now works right out of the bag
without the need to log back in.

form of any Java object, and it's equally easy to write your own
Configuration, Validation, and Parsing classes to deal with your value
objects of choice. Because parameter values in the
TwilightMinds.Configuration package can be any object, the package also

The Global File System (GFS) is a 64-bit shared disk cluster file
system for Linux. GFS cluster nodes physically share the same storage
by means of Fibre Channel or shared SCSI devices. The file system
appears to be local on each node and GFS synchronizes file access
across the cluster. GFS is fully symmetric, meaning that all nodes are
equal and there is no server which may be a bottleneck or single point
of failure. GFS uses read and write caching while maintaining full UNIX
file system semantics. GFS supports journaling, recovery from client
failures, and many other features.

changes:
Kernel patches have been updated and GFS now runs on 2.2.18. Initial
work has begun on porting to 2.4. It is not ready yet, but it should be
shortly after 2.4 is officially released. Initial support has also been
added for exporting GFS filesystems to non-GFS nodes via kernel-space
NFS. Support for banning a GNBD client from a GNBD server has been
implemented, as well as a new STOMITH method that utilizes this
functionality. Further enhanments have been made to the `memexpd' high
availability failover setup and a new tool, `initds', has been
introduced for initializing data segments that maintain lock state
info. New tools for DMEP operations have also been introduced.

description:
aewm is a minimalistic window manager for X11. It has no nifty
features, but is light on resources and extremely simple in appearance.
It should eventually make a good reference implementation of the ICCCM.
A few separate programs are included to handle running programs,
switching between windows, etc.

changes:
Anti-aliased font support using Xft has been added. The Makefiles have
been cleaned up. Window positioning has been improved. This version
includes more comprehensible debugging code.
