purchase link is provided for donations, the software does not cost
anything.
Changes: This release includes better support for people creating file://
accessible albums, use of a relative theme images path instead of absolute,

[010] - DansGuardian 1.1.4
by Daniel Barron (http://freshmeat.net/users/dansguardian/)
Thursday, July 19th 2001 21:39
Categories: Internet, Internet :: WWW/HTTP, Security, System :: Networking
:: Monitoring
About: DansGuardian is a filtering proxy that uses Squid to do all the
fetching. It filters using four methods: First, it checks the actual
content of the pages against a configurable list of denied phrases. Second,
it implements PICS filtering. Third, it checks the MIME type of the
requested file against a configurable list of denied types. Fourth, it
checks the file extension of the requested file against a configurable list
of denied file extensions. The filtering has a configurable URL exception
list. It provides filtered, configurable logging which logs in a very
human-friendly format. It can be configured to only log text-based pages,
thus significantly reducing redundant information such as every image on a
page.
Changes: Content filtering, extension blocking, and proxy testing problems
have been fixed. There have also been some minor features added.

[023] - IceBreaker 1.09 (Devel)
by Matthew Miller (http://freshmeat.net/users/mattdm/)
Thursday, July 19th 2001 18:26
Category: Games/Entertainment :: Puzzle Games
About: IceBreaker is a game involving a bunch of penguins on an iceberg in
Antarctica. You have been selected to catch them so they can be shipped to
Finland, where they are essential to a secret plot for world domination.
IceBreaker was inspired by (but isn't an exact clone of) Jezzball by Dima
Pavlovsky.
Changes: This release has a significant gameplay change: when a
partially-completed line hits another partially-completed line, it no
longer completes, but instead waits for the other to complete or be
destroyed. This makes the game much harder, in a good way. Also, high score
writing has been changed to take multiple simultaneous users into account.

when viewing "today" and "future" activities.

[025] - Java Serialization to XML 0.8.14.1
by Brendan Macmillan (http://freshmeat.net/users/yow/)
Thursday, July 19th 2001 06:10
About: JSX (Java Serialization to XML) gives you XML persistence and
communication. You need not change your classes or design schema or write
scripts. It just works - even if your classes have changed in the meantime.
Usage is as for Java's own Serialization. JAXB, Jato, and Castor can
require considerable setup, and Swing Serialization to XML only works for
Java Beans. JSX works for all objects, handles evolution of classes, and
needs no setup at all. You can just delegate the whole XML-side to JSX.
Changes: The NaN, -Infinity, and Infinity values for floats and doubles are
now parsed correctly.

[030] - Lesstif 0.92.95
by Danny Backx (http://freshmeat.net/users/dannybackx/)
Thursday, July 19th 2001 12:25
About: LessTif is an LGPL'd implemention of the OSF/Motif standard GUI
toolkit for X11. LessTif aims to be source compatible with the OSF/Motif
versions 1.2 and 2.1. Currently 1.2 support is almost complete and most
Motif 1.2 apps should compile and run out of the box, whilst 2.1 still has
very little functionality.
Changes: The documentation was enhanced. The list of platforms where
LessTif can be built on was updated. mwm fixes/enhancements were made.
Inter-library dependencies (libtool 1.4 related) were dropped. The build
process now checks whether to link against -lXp -lXext when using 2.1 Motif
libraries. dmalloc debugging support was fixed. Some files missing from the
test/ tree in the tarballs were added. Smaller configuration and Makefile
issues (portability fixes). Support for configuring and building Xlt and
Xbae removed from within the LessTif distribution was removed. Xlt and Xbae
will be treated as separate packages from now on.

boilerplate text to outgoing mail. A "-test" feature has been added to test
filters for correctness before installing them on a live server. There are
many other cleanups and minor bugfixes.

[041] - Nullcraft Portal Development Kit 0.5.1
by Mark (http://freshmeat.net/users/mujolo/)
Thursday, July 19th 2001 14:09
About: Nullcraft Portal Development Kit is a tool for Web developers to
quickly and easily integrate several heterogeneous applications and news
sources together into a multi-page portal layout. It takes advantage of a
J2EE environment, yet still allows web developers to develop and maintain
CGI and other applications. The main display format is via a JSP page
that uses JSP custom tag libraries to generate the dynamic layout. This
layout mechanism uses features from JSP 1.2 spec. The "native" development
environment for backend modules will be Java 2 Servlet/JSP. J2EE security
components will be made available to all applications accessed via the
Portal. News channels can be managed using RDF (RSS) files. Configuration
via XML files or JDBC connection will both be available options. Each
backend component type has it's own Plugin for configuration and
execution.
Changes: The most significant feature enhancement in this version is a new
CGI plugin. This plugin supports GET requests in this version, but future
versions will also support POST. A security bug where the user's
credentials were not checked prior to performing several administrative
tasks was fixed. More documentation was added. Whitespace in Module and
Operation names is no longer allowed. A sample Perl CGI app (whois.bw.org)
is included as an example of the CGI plugin. A URL mapping was added to
allow for cleaner URLs such as Dispatch/foo/bar in addition to
Dispatch?mod=foo&op=bar.

Thursday, July 19th 2001 12:11
Categories: Database :: Front-Ends, Software Development :: Libraries
About: pyPgSQL is a package of two modules that provide a Python DB-API 2.0
compliant interface to PostgreSQL databases. The first module, libpq,
exports the PostgreSQL C API to Python. This module is written in C and can

module, PgSQL, provides the DB-API 2.0 compliant interface and support for
various PostgreSQL data types, such as INT8, NUMERIC, MONEY, BOOL, ARRAYS,
etc. This module is written in Python and works with PostgreSQL 6.5.2 or
later and Python 1.5.2 or later. pyPgSQL was previously released under the
name 'PgSQL'.
Changes: The PgInt2 and PgInt8 type objects (formerly implemented as Python
classes) were re-implemented in C. The PgInt8 C implementation will only be
used if long_longs are supported in your architecture, otherwise a Python
implementation (based on Python's long type) will be used. There were also
minor bugfixes and performance improvemts.

Thursday, July 19th 2001 14:56
About: SCMxx is a console program that allows you to exchange certain types
of data with mobile phones made by Siemens. Some of the data types that can
be exchanged are logos, ring tones, vCalendars, phonebook entries, and SMS
messages. It works with the S35i, M35i, and C35i, but other models (like
S25) can also be supported. It basically uses the AT command set published
by Siemens (with some other additional resources).
Changes: SMS messages can be directly received without being stored in the
phone first, and an alphanumeric From: field is now detected and decoded.
The output is now more detailed about PDU and DCS. GMT is now only decoded
when it is certain the result is correct, and the DCS field is now decoded
in the right way (it now finds all 7bit, 8bit and 16bit messages). Only
7bit messages are decoded, though.

[062] - Virtual X68000 1.1.10
by Kaz Sasayama (http://freshmeat.net/users/kazssym/)
Thursday, July 19th 2001 14:14
Categories: Software Development :: Libraries, System :: Emulators
About: Virtual X68000 is a virtual machine that emulates a Sharp X68000 and
optionally its DOS API. It will eventually run application programs for
X68000 without any proprietary software including ROM BIOS, but currently
lacks many key functions and is still in early development phase. Virtual
X68000 is written in C++, and uses templates to implement instruction
handlers.
Changes: The screen drawing has been changed to use OpenGL. This version
requires an implementation of the OpenGL API such as Mesa.
