About: Apache::ASP provides an Active Server Pages port to the Apache Web
Server with Perl as the host scripting language. Apache::ASP allows a
developer to create dynamic Web applications with session management and
embedded Perl code. There are also many powerful extensions, including XML
taglibs, XSLT rendering, and new events not originally part of the ASP
API.
Changes: Major fixes for cleaning up empty sessions & handling POST
requests on a fast LAN connection without error, some $Session->API*()
optimizations, support for XML::LibXSLT for XSLT transformations (which
seems to be twice as fast as XML::Sablotron for large XSLT), cross-Perl
work to support PerlTaintCheck On security config, and better memory use
with more modules loaded in parent httpd by default to be shared cross
fork.

Tuesday, November 20th 2001 05:23
Software Development :: Build Tools
About: Buildpkg is a package build system. It gives you the opportunity to
create package system (rpm, dpkg, etc.) independent descriptions (.def)
which can be used to create binary packages on every system. It can be also
used to track installations and create packages of the installed files. If
you want more safety, you can use the 'jail' feature. In this mode a
chroot-ed environment will be created from the (configurable) list of
programs and the installation will be done here.
Changes: Many features were enhanced and the ability to create RPM and DEB
packages was added.

System :: Boot :: Init
About: BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a
single small executable. It provides minimalist replacements for most of
the utilities you usually find in GNU fileutils, shellutils, etc. The
utilities in BusyBox generally have fewer options than their full-featured
GNU cousins; however, the options that are included provide the expected
functionality and behave very much like their GNU counterparts. BusyBox
provides a fairly complete POSIX environment for any small or embedded
system.
Changes: minix shell, ash, and general bugfixes were added.

by David Sugar (http://freshmeat.net/users/davidsugar/)
Tuesday, November 20th 2001 15:28
Software Development :: Interpreters Software Development :: Libraries
About: The OST ccscript package offers a class extensible threaded embedded
scripting engine for use with the Common C++ GNU package. This engine is
also used in Bayonne (the GNU telephony server), and in TOSI (FreeBSD and
GNU/Linux PBX integration servers). This engine differs from traditional
scripting systems in that it is used to script near real-time state-event
systems through deterministic callback step execution rather than the
linear and non-deterministic fashion of embedded script libraries such as
tcl, and libguile.
Changes: Support for DSO package modules/plugins for ccScript, new date and
time support based on DSO modules, and support for Common C++ 1.9.0 and
namespaces.

[012] - Cluster Copy 0.78 (default)
by David Redmond (http://freshmeat.net/users/davemsclinux/)
Tuesday, November 20th 2001 15:27
Utilities
About: Cluster Copy is a Perl application that broadcasts files over a
network via UDP. Daemons on any number of systems can receive the file.
Using this method, files need not be copied to each system sequentially.
Changes: A fix for a bug in host/group name range translation, defaulting
to group 'all' if no hosts or groups are specified, reduced CPU usage,
automatic exclusion of the sending system's hostname from the recipient
list, nested groups support, verification that groups contain a valid list
of hosts if no hosts are defined, and a fix for a bug that prevented a copy
from finishing under specific circumstances.

by Christoph (http://freshmeat.net/users/chmartin/)
Tuesday, November 20th 2001 08:37
Security :: Cryptography Text Editors :: Emacs
About: crypt++.el is a package of Lisp functions that recognize
automatically encrypted and encoded (i.e., compressed) files when they are
first visited or written. The BUFFER corresponding to the file is decoded
and/or decrypted before it is presented to the user. The file itself is
unchanged on the disk. When the buffer is subsequently saved to disk, a
hook function re-encodes the buffer before the actual disk write takes
place.
Changes: Mcrypt support was added in crypt-encryption-alist. A couple of
documentation fixes were made.

[021] - Dynamic Probes 3.2.0
by IBM Linux Technology Center (http://freshmeat.net/users/ibmltc/)
Tuesday, November 20th 2001 11:13
Software Development :: Debuggers Software Development :: Quality Assurance
Software Development :: Testing
About: Dynamic Probes (Dprobes) is a generic and pervasive system debugging
facility that will operate under the most extreme software conditions such
as debugging a deep-rooted operating system problem in a live environment.
Dprobes allows the insertion of fully automated breakpoints or probepoints
anywhere in the system and user space. Each probepoint has an associated
set of probe instructions that are interpreted when the probe fires. These
instructions allow memory and CPU registers to be examined and altered
using conditional logic. When the probe command terminates, prior to
returning to the probed code, a syslog record may be optionally generated.
Changes: This release fixes the bug that caused the module list to be
exported without the version suffix when CONFIG_MODVERSIONS is set,
preventing dprobes module from loading. A segfault in do_getvars which
occurred only on S/390 was fixed.

[053] - ianjtag tools 1.1
by inAccess Networks (http://freshmeat.net/users/inaccess/)
Tuesday, November 20th 2001 10:01
System :: Hardware Utilities
About: ianjtag tools is a set of tools and code for using the JTAG
interface (present in most modern microprocessors) to perform hardware
tests and for programming Flash Memory Devices connected to a processor's
bus. It is especially usefull in embeded systems development projects for
performing initial system tests and for bootstraping prototype systems.
ianjtag tools run on a "host system" (e.g. a desktop computer with Linux)
and access the "target system" (e.g. the embeded system's CPU board)
through a simple 5-line hardware interface. In the present implementation
the host system's parallel port is used as the hardware interface, though
other arangements can very easily be supported. It currently supports the
Intel StrongArm SA-1110 as a target processor and the Intel StrataFlash ICs
as flash memory devices, but it can easily be extented to support any other
target hardware configuration by writing simple modules that can be
incorporated into the ianjtag tools infrastructure.
Changes: Minor additions and bugfixes were made. New commands, better error
reporting, and other features were added to the "ianjflash" tool, and
several annoying bugs were fixed. The JTAG command codes (i.e. the binary
values for commands like EXTEST and IDCODE) were moved from the low-level
jtag module to the processor support modules. The timing of the elementary
jtag cycle was sligtly modified to make it more compatible to the standard.

Visualization
About: MayaVi is a free, cross platform, easy-to-use scientific data
visualizer. It provides a powerful GUI to ease the visualization process.
It is written in Python and uses the Visualization Toolkit (VTK) for the
graphics. MayaVi can be scripted from other Python programs and also from
the interactive Python interpreter. MayaVi includes the VTK Pipeline
browser. The VTK Pipeline browser is a Python module (vtkPipeline) that
enables one to view and configure the objects in the VTK pipeline
graphically with a Tkinter-based GUI. The browser should work for any
Python script that uses VTK. MayaVi also provides classes to pickle a VTK
object and a simple class documentation browser.
Changes: Binaries for Linux and Windows are available. MayaVi can now be
scripted from Python interactively. Support for command line arguments was
added. The installation process was made easier. New file import/export
options were added. Streamline handling was improved for 2D cases. Several
new filters and a few modules were added. Tensor support was added. A new
module was added to make interactive usage of VTK easier. The pipeline
browser was improved. Miscellaneous bug fixes and enhancements were made.

Scientific/Engineering :: Mathematics
About: PARI/GP is a package aimed at efficient computations in number
theory, containing a large number of other useful functions. It is somewhat
related to a Computer Algebra System, but is not really one since it treats

[084] - PHP Generator of Object SQL Database. 0.2.7
by charles vidal (http://freshmeat.net/users/vidalcharles/)
Tuesday, November 20th 2001 15:00
Internet :: WWW/HTTP Software Development :: Code Generators
About: PHP Generator of Object SQL Database generates objects from the
description of table in an SQL database. Each object map is a table in the
SQL database, and has methods to insert, modify, and delete an entry in
the database. But they also have methods to show forms, and to get data
after an HTTPD post, or a get. They have iterator methods, and call your
function for each entry of your request. Some templates help you to write
HTML forms. This can help when you change databases, as the API is the
same all the time, and you don't have to patch the PHP objects, but just
regenerate them.
Changes: The script phpdoc (to make the documentation of the generated
class) has been added. The description of the table has been added to
select2.php3, so when you choose a table, you can see the description of
its fields (name,type, key, default value) in the second step.

lists. Users can sign up to multiple lists. If a message is sent to
multiple lists, they will only receive one copy of the email and not as
many as the number of lists they are subscribed to. Geographical
information. If people sign up, they can identify the geographical location
they're in allowing messages to be sent only to a subset of these.
Changes: Users can now be edited. The "textline" and "hidden" attributes
were added. Large lists of users can now be imported. A prefix was added to
the names of database tables to avoid clashing.

Tuesday, November 20th 2001 11:47
System :: Logging
About: socklog cooperates with the daemontools package to create a small
and secure replacement for syslogd. socklog supports system logging through
Unix domain sockets (/dev/log) and UDP sockets (0.0.0.0:514) with the help
of daemontools svscan, supervise, and multilog. socklog provides a
different network logging concept, and also does log event notification.
multilog has built in log file rotation based on file size, so there is no
need for any cron jobs to rotate the logs. socklog is small, secure, and
reliable.
Changes: This version includes the socklog-conf program for easy setup of
socklog services. The socklog services now run under softlimit. The default
socklog-notify configuration now uses more restricted permissions. An

[100] - Syslinux 1.64-pre3 (Test)
by H. Peter Anvin (http://freshmeat.net/users/hpa/)
Tuesday, November 20th 2001 01:45
System :: Boot
About: SYSLINUX is a boot loader for the Linux operating system which
operates off of MS-DOS floppies. It is intended to simplify first-time
installation of Linux, rescue disks, and other uses for boot floppies. A
SYSLINUX floppy can be manipulated using standard MS-DOS (or any other OS
that can access an MS-DOS filesystem) tools once it has been created, and
requires only a ~ 8K DOS program or ~ 16K Linux program to create it in the
first place. It also includes PXELINUX, a program to boot off a network
server using a boot PROM compatible with the Intel PXE (Pre-Execution
Environment) specification, and ISOLINUX, a program to boot off ISO 9660
CD-ROMs in native mode.
Changes: The support for serial flow control was greatly improved. Bugs
relating to return-to-text-mode when a font is loaded were fixed.

[107] - Web Trip Reporter 1.0 (Stable)
by NDHolmes (http://freshmeat.net/users/NDHolmes/)
Tuesday, November 20th 2001 02:38
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
About: Web Trip Reporter is a CGI and server-side include based system that
displays trip reports or trip photoessays on the Web. It's designed to use
a master HTML template to abstract content development from the generic
look and feel of the site in order to make writing a trip report as simple
as possible. It's currently in a slow state of development since at the
moment it has a few artificial limits - not the least of which being that
the file naming schema is oriented toward presenting
transportation-related subjects.

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Site
Management Office/Business
About: WebGUI is a platform built to allow average business users to build
and maintain complex Web sites. It is modular, pluggable, and platform
independent. It was designed to allow the people who create the content,
to manage it online, rather than content management taking up the time of
busy IT Staff. Whether you are building a consumer site, an intranet, or
an extranet, WebGUI has something to offer.
Changes: The basic infrastructure and interface was added to the new
content management workflow system. The old "pending submissions" system
was removed. A new universal pagination system was added. You can now
specify who can approve User Submissions rather than just all content
managers. The new macro system was added. Much more functionality was added
to the Site Map widget. A universal discussion system was created with an
API that will allow any widget to make use of it. The message board has
been migrated to this new system. Many bug fixes and small feature
enhancements were made.

Tuesday, November 20th 2001 11:16
Communications :: Email :: Address Book Office/Business Office/Business ::
Scheduling
About: XNotesPlus is a Personal Information Manager (PIM) based around a
sticky notes (aka Memos) concept with over a dozen features: email, search
text, printing, audio/visual alarms, etc. It also includes a full featured
interface to the 3Com Palm Pilot, including full Address Book, Todo List,
and Calendaring functions, with XNotes exported as Pilot Memos, and Pilot
Memos imported as XNotes. The Address Manager in XNotesPlus allows you to
use addresses from the Pilot to print envelopes, and send email notes to
friends.
Changes: This is a bugfix release. Two major problems were found in 3.4.2.
The first was a crash that occurred when exiting the Todo window while in a
category with no entries. This has been fixed. The second problem was a
persistant problem with notes losing their positions when they were spread
out across multiple desktops. This long-standing bug appears to be fixed. A
note was also added to the FAQ regarding the use of USB devices with
XNotesPlus.
