description:
Synopsis is a source code documentation tool that follows a modular
architecture to adapt to different languages, comment styles, and
output formats. It provides parsers for IDL, C++, and Python, and a
number of formatter modules. It has the ability to scale to large
projects and to integrate well with Makefiles to only update
documentation for changed files. One of the goals of Synopsis is to
integrate the documentation between different languages, for example
linking implementations in any language with their CORBA interfaces and
vice versa. The main code is written in Python, the C++ parser is a
module based on OpenC++, and the IDL parser is a module based on the
omniidl tool.
changes:
Python support, a new ability to cross-reference across language
boundaries by means of a flexible linker module, and a formatter for
graph generation, based on graphviz. The build process is now
autoconf-based.

Mp3blaster is an interactive text-based program that plays several
audio file types (MP3, wav, and sid). It is one of the very few mp3
players for the text console that allows full interactive control

very flexible playlist (while playing!). It plays most MP3 formats and
has full mixer support built in.
changes:
This release adds very important bugfixes in mp3 decoding which reduce
crashes and improve playback of damaged/VBR mp3s, a fix for a bug that
caused mp3s to be cut off in the playlist, recursive file adding which
skips Mac/HPFS-specific filesystem dirs, playlist playback modes which
have changed to make better use of recursive playlists, an nmixer
progam which can view/set the recording source, and an splay
commandline program.

single line expressions in Java. The key feature of JEL is the fact
that it is a compiler. The language of JEL expressions resembles the
Java Language expressions as close as possible. JEL supports all Java
primitive types and classes (even in form of constants), allows to call
both static and virtual methods of Java classes (with no additinal
runtime costs and no wrappers), and performs evaluation of constant
subexpressions at a compile time.

for words and phrases, use wildcards, and do a Boolean search. Search
results can be limited to time period given, site or Web space (set of
sites) and sorted by relevance (PageRanks are used) or date. ASPSeek is
optimized for multiple sites (threaded index, async DNS lookups,
grouping results by site, Web spaces), but can be used for searching
one site as well. Other features include stopwords and ispell support,
a charset and language guesser, HTML templates for search results,
excerpts, and query words highlighting.

A few bugfixes (including coredumps), an IP-based ACL for searchd,
sorting and limiting results by date, default template fixes and

as agents to perform checks on specified hosts. It supports tier-level
notification and sends an email to the specified contact person. Each
agent can be uniquely configured to override default settings.
changes:
A lot of very important changes have been made, especially regarding
the plugin architecture. Support for notify_exec for those who wish to
do something other than send an email when something goes wrong has
been readded . Also redesigned is way the agent.conf is used. The UID
is now an arbitrary string as opposed to the IP as it's not unusual
that a server has more than one IP. There are several more bugfixes and
features that have been added.

description:
PostgreSQL Session Handler for PHP is a custom session save handler for
PHP4 that uses PostgreSQL as the session cache. This allows multiple
Web servers to share a common session storage container and is useful
for allowing Web users to move between machines while maintaining their
session state.
changes:
The "write" handler has been further optimised. This should improve the
performance of the session handler a bit while cutting down on the
errors that were being redirected into the web server logs.

Tcpbroker does TCP port forwarding with a twist: it connects two
incoming sockets together. Tcpbroker allows you to telnet out from
behind a firewall to another system also behind a firewall via a proxy
host running the broker. All you need to do is remote command the far
system to make the outgoing connection to the broker. Tcpbroker
includes a secure authentication mechanism via Tiny SRP. A version
without authentication is also included.

description:
The Tiny SRP library is a stripped-down version of srp-1.7.1 and
openssl-0.9.6 that contains only what is necessary for secure remote
passphrase authentication. No other libraries are required. If you
already have libsrp installed on both server and client then you don't
need this. Tiny SRP is designed for embedded or mini distributions, and
is also a quick and easy way to add secure authentication to small
client/server projects. Also included is the TSRP protocol, which
reduces socket authentication to one function call on each of the
client and server.

Initial public release.

Project Clock lets you record the time you spend on different tasks
with a single mouse click. It is easy to add and delete projects. An

changes:
This is release 0.6 of Project Clock, and is a usability release. The
GUI (pck-timer) now has menu entries (View...) to display reports in a
GUI window with a "Save" button. The "custom report" option expects you
to type in command-line options to get the output you need. The report
viewer won't work (yet) on Win32 or Mac. There is now a properties
editor (Edit->Properties...) to change the timer rate, end-of-day etc.
The saves to ~/.pclockrc are cumulative, so if you mess up, you can
delete the offending entry from the end of the file using a text
editor. The reporting program (pck-summary) now accepts a range of
dates, and also allows you to specify multiple projects.
