[001] - ACPI Event Daemon 0.99.4
by Tim Hockin (http://freshmeat.net/users/thockin/)
Tuesday, August 21st 2001 16:05
About: ACPID is a completely flexible and expandable mechanism for
delivering ACPI events from the kernel to user-space. It can be configured
to perform any action at all when events occur, through regex matches and
arbitrary action rules.
Changes: Support for UNIX domain sockets has been added. Clients can
connect on a socket and get events, and there are several command line
options for socket perms and name. The default file locations have been
changed to /etc/acpi/events. The man page has been updated. Support for
command line options has been added to actions. read_line() has been
changed to be more generic. This requires the /proc/acpi/event kernel patch
for poll and read() semantics. This release is RC 1, and will be 1.0 if
there are no bug reports.

developer shouldn't have to know SQL to be able to administer a database;
this does require a special setup which isn't necessarily easy to create.
Changes: A good Web interface with DBI::Frame::CGI was created. The attempt
to resolve the licencing issues has been temporarily abandoned.

About: JBoss is an Open Source, standards-compliant, Enterprise JavaBeans
application server implemented in pure Java. JBoss provides JBossServer,
the basic EJB container and JMX infrastructure, JBossMQ for JMS messaging,
JBossMail for mail, JBossTX for JTA/JTS transactions, JBossSX for JAAS
based security, JBossCX for JCA connectivity, and JBossCMP for CMP
persistence. It integrates with Tomcat Servlet/JSP container and Jetty Web
server/servlet container, and enables you to mix and match these components
through JMX by replacing any component you wish with a JMX-compliant
implementation for the same APIs. The goal is to provide a full J2EE stack
in the Free/Open Source software world.
Changes: Updates to the JBoss Message Queue (JBossMQ) with improved
performance. The JBossCMP Object to Relational model mapping has been
improved and sports new performance features such as read-ahead finders.
The JMX MBean configuration has been improved for ease-of-use. Java
Connector Architecture (JCA) resource adapter for JMS has been added to
this release. Also several security related enhancements have been made.

[049] - Python GnuPGInterface 0.2.1
by Frank J. Tobin (http://freshmeat.net/users/ftobin/)
Tuesday, August 21st 2001 14:11
Category: Security :: Cryptography
About: GnuPGInterface is a Python module to interface with GnuPG . It
concentrates on interacting with GnuPG via filehandles, providing access to
control GnuPG via versatile and extensible means. It is based on
GnuPG::Interface.
Changes: Major changes have been made in the run() method. A much cleaner
and more sensible method is now used to request which filehandles are
'created' and which are 'attached'. See the documentation and example code
for details. Note that the API changes are heavily non-backwards
compatible. Also, the ability to have run() 'attach' GnuPG filehandles to
already-opened files really works now; doctests have been implemented to
test and ensure this.

Tuesday, August 21st 2001 14:18
Categories: Communications :: Email :: Filters, Security
About: The Anomy mail sanitizer is a filter designed to block email-based
security risks, such as trojans and viruses. It can scan an arbitrarily
complex RFC822 or MIME message and remove or rename attachments, truncate

make it both more efficient and more precise than other similar programs.
The sanitizer has built-in support for third-party virus scanners.
Changes: The FORM tag has been added to the HTML defanger, due to related
vulnerabilities discussed on BUGTRAQ. The logging system has been
rewritten, and other minor bugfixes and improvements have been made. Pleae
note that scoring is disabled in this release, so if you are using it wait

remaining in a lease (for systems with no clocks). The client calls helper
scripts to do the work of configuring the interfaces for more
flexibility.

Tuesday, August 21st 2001 18:04
About: UnZip will list, test, or extract files from a ZIP archive, commonly
found on DOS and Windows systems. A companion program, Zip, creates ZIP
archives. Both programs are compatible with archives created by PKWARE's
PKZIP or Nico Mak's WinZip, but in many cases the program options or
default behaviors differ.
Changes: This release removes unreduce.c (now available only as a separate
add-on archive) and the Amiga timelib code to eliminate final distribution
restrictions beyond the BSD-like Info-ZIP license. There is a generic
replacement for the timelib code. Filename mapping of Unix ``dot'' files to
DOS 8.3 format has been improved.

has currently only been tested with the Lucent Orinoco series of cards,
although it should work (with varying features) with all devices supported
by the wireless kernel extensions written by Jean Tourrilhes.
Changes: Compiler errors with gcc 3 fixed, works with older wireless
extensions, no more segfaults when no driver or interface is found, several
minor display fixes.

[066] - WebMagick 2.02pre1 (Development)
by Chris Lindell (http://freshmeat.net/users/clindell/)
Tuesday, August 21st 2001 17:46
Category: Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
About: WebMagick makes image collections available on the Web. It recurses
through directory trees, building HTML pages, imagemap files, and
client-side/server-side maps or HTML tables to allow the user to navigate
through collections of thumbnail galleries. Using JavaScript, HTML tables,
and cookies, WebMagick can also allow the viewer to configure how they view
the gallery. The primary focus of WebMagick is performance. Image
thumbnails are reduced and composed into a single image to reduce client
accesses, reducing server load and improving client performance. Everything
is pre-computed. During operation WebMagick employs innovative caching and
work-avoidance techniques to make successive executions much faster.
Changes: A new $opt_pichtmlnav option, which puts navigation buttons on
per-image HTML pages.
