description:
Java Serialization to XML (JSX) is an two-way bridge between XML and
Java. It automatically creates tags and attributes from classnames and
fieldnames - instead of you writing parsing code with SAX, DOM or JDOM.
It does three impossible things: handles classes which customise their
own serialization, creates without constructors, and accesses private
fields - instead of you rewriting classes as Java Beans. It also
handles circular references and arrays of arrays. JSX is lightweight.
changes:
This release fixes the third successful JSX Challenge. Fields like
_wert (beginning with an underscore) are no longer deserialized
incorrectly.

Echomine Muse API is a Java API with the goal of integrating all
network-collaboration services into one. The API will give an
easy-to-use interface that allows you to log on to multiple services
(ie. ICQ, AIM, MSN, Yahoo Messenger, IRC, Napster, Gnutella, Jabber).
There will be a client GUI Framework API to combine the use of all
these service under one easy-to-access API so that you can write GUI
client with much less effort.
changes:
This release contains major additions such as Napigator support, a
default Remote-Queue Checker, and initial Multi-Napster support. You
can now connect to multiple napster servers and submit search queries
to them. A bug with the New user Login code is fixed. To prepare for
Multi-Napster support, most of the listener interfaces have their
method signatures changed. The rest are just some code cleanups and
bugfixes.

description:
MiniGUI is a mini graphical user interface (GUI) support system for
Linux which provides an event-driven API for applications. By using
MiniGUI, one application can create multiple windows in multiple
threads, and can draw in these windows without interfering with each
other. MiniGUI 0.3.xx has a Graphics Abstract Layer (GAL) and an Input
Abstract Layer (IAL), so MiniGUI can run on many Graphics Engines,
including SVGALib and LibGGI. By using GAL and IAL, MiniGUI
applications can run on X Windows aswell. This makes debugging of
applications and porting to other hardware easier. MiniGUI provides
native support for many image types including GIF, JPG, PCX, LBM/PBM,
and BMP, support for TrueType and Adobe Type1 fonts, and support for
GB2312 and BIG5 charsets.
changes:
The APIs are now stable. Some new controls and bugfixes have been
added. The most important change is that you can now build the light
version of MiniGUI, "MiniGUI-Lite". MiniGUI-Lite is a lightweight
version of the original MiniGUI created because LinuxThreads is not
needed anymore. You can run a program based on MiniGUI-Lite from a
program called "mginit". Just like in X, the former process is called a
client, and the latter a server. The clients connect to the server via
a UNIX domain socket, and the server accept the request from clients.
The server provides the shared resource for the clients, and sends
mouse (touch screen) and keyboard events to the topmost client. Note
that most APIs of MiniGUI-Lite are compatible with original MiniGUI.

Spanish, Hebrew, etc.). WebGlimpse is in Perl, but uses Glimpse (in C)
for the heavy lifting.
changes:
This release adds a new ResultCache module with two main improvements:
a toolbar that lets the user jump to an arbitrary group of hits (1-10,
11-20, etc.) instead of just "next N hits", and a feature that expires
old cache files so they don't fill up the /tmp directory for people who
don't automatically delete from there. Also, it generates the cache
filename by the glimpse command line, so if another user does the same
search before the cache expires, it will use the cachefile and be very
fast. For heavily used archives with common search terms, this might be
a big performance help. Note: ResultCache is only available to
commercial users and contributing developers.

The terminal's character set is now determined automatically, if
possible. An In-Reply-To header field is generated. Some smaller fixes
were made to multibyte character handling. When an invalid entry in the
References field is detected, it is dropped instead of refusing to send
the entire message. Domain literals in addresses are accepted.

description:
APC was conceived of to provide a way of boosting the performance of
PHP on heavily loaded sites by providing a way for scripts to be cached
in a compiled state, so that the overhead of parsing and compiling can
be almost completely eliminated. There are commercial products which
provide this functionality, but they are neither open-source nor free.
Our goal was to level the playing field by providing an implementation
that allows greater flexibility and is universally accessible.

fixes for PHP 4.0.2 - 4.0.4pl1.
