Why Linux? Because it costs less.
Now, thanks to Oracle’s work with Linux partners, along with Oracle’s
advanced clustering technology Linux is ready for the enterprise. Arm
yourself with a solid implementation plan—and charter a managed deployment

Software Development
Software Development :: Version Control
About: arch is a modern replacement for CVS, specifically designed for the
distributed development needs of open source projects. It has uniquely
good support for development on branches (especially good merging tools),
distributed repositories (every developer can have branches in their own
repository), changeset-oriented project management (arch commits changes
to multiple files at once), and, of course, file and directory renaming.
Changes: This version features two new commands ("ancestry" and
"abrowse") for examining history and archives, numerous (mostly user
contributed) bugfixes, documentation improvements, and CLI fixes.

[008] - DataVision 0.7.10

Office/Business
Software Development
About: DataVision is a reporting tool similar to Crystal Reports, written
in Java. It supports multiple data sources (JDBC, text files) and output
formats (HTML, XML, PDF, LaTeX, comma- and tab-separated data files, and
DocBook). It lets you design reports with a drag-and-drop GUI. Report
descriptions are stored as XML.
Changes: The layout engine command line options -c, -d, -f, -h, -l, and -x
now take optional output file name arguments. The Table Linker, Group By,
and Sort By dialogs now only list columns in tables used by the report
instead of listing every column in the database. This should make opening
these dialogs much quicker with large databases. An "OK" button has been
added to the SQL Query window to make it easier to close. On Mac OS X with
Java 1.4.1 the app hung after running a report from the command line. The
app now exits properly.

release addresses a problem in handling XML element names that contain
hyphens or are otherwise not valid identifiers in the template language.

Friday, July 18th 2003 05:25
System :: Networking
System :: Systems Administration
About: Linux Bandwidth Arbitrator allows beginning-to-advanced network
administrators to control bandwidth. It is designed to be completely
turn-key in its default configuration. You just plug it into your network
trunk, and it self configures and immediately starts slowing "bandwidth
hogs". It also comes with finer controls that are easy to use, and can be
configured to target specific applications such as Kazaa, IMAP, and POP.
Traffic can be limited by host IP, subnet, and content blocking.
Changes: This version features an important fix to smooth out limits and
steady the bursty nature of how the arbitrator shapes them, the ability
to limit uplink and downlink with different values simultaneously for the
same host, and two more application patterns, RDP and AIMMESSENGER.

[033] - Log Tool 1.2.5

Friday, July 18th 2003 19:12
System :: Systems Administration
About: Logtool is a syslog file parser, report generator, and monitoring
utility. It takes logfiles from syslog, multilog, or other ASCII log
generating sources as input from stdin, and depending on command line
switches and/or config file settings, will parse and filter out unwanted
messages from the logfile accordingly, and generate output in ANSI color,
formatted ASCII, CSV (for spreadsheets), or HTML format. It is very handy
for use in automated nightly reports, and online monitoring of logfile
activity. It comes with some simple example scripts and documentation.
Changes: Escaping of HTML-centric characters has been implemented and
seems to work properly. The parsing process has been cleaned up to
facilitate the injection of additional such features.

Friday, July 18th 2003 10:53
Database :: Front-Ends
Software Development :: Code Generators
Software Development :: Libraries :: Python Modules
About: Modeling Framework fills the gap between the Python object world
and relational databases in that it allows users to transparently create,
retrieve, update, or delete Python objects from a database without having
to write a single line of SQL. Main features include generation of
database schema, generation of Python code templates ready to be used,
support for transparent mapping of (class) inheritance in relational
databases, object-oriented query language, use of standard Python getters
to traverse relationships (the related objects are automatically fetched
when needed and when appropriate), and automatic checking for
referential-integrity constraints, etc. Supported databases are
PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQLite.
Changes: This release offers the ability to fetch raw rows (instead of
fully initialized objects), plus two new qualifier operators: IN and NOT
IN. Parsing of qualifier strings has been made significantly faster. The
documentation has been updated to document the new features, as well as
how the framework reacts to fetch when objects have been inserted,
updated, or deleted (refer to the User's Guide, section 4.5).

Communications :: Email :: Post-Office :: IMAP
About: OfflineIMAP is a tool to simplify email reading. It allows you to
read the same mailbox from multiple computers and ensures that your
changes will be automatically reflected on all computers. You can use
various mail clients to read a single box or read mail while offline with
full synchronization when you reconnect. You can read IMAP mail with
readers that lack IMAP support (same goes for SSL). OfflineIMAP's
multithreaded synchronization algorithm performs between 10 and 60 times
faster than many mail readers' internal IMAP support, and it can be used
even with mail readers that support IMAP already. There are five available
user interface modules, including scripted execution, an interactive
terminal interface, and GUI interfaces.
Changes: New features include the ability to sync two IMAP servers to each
other with no local repository in between, support for KMail using a local
IMAP server, a new configuration file format allowing reuse of repository
information, numerous bugfixes including new support for Domino servers,
and an assortment of other features.

adds a demo database. A number of bugs, mainly font related, have been

Database :: Front-Ends

access to Perl objects and data structures from the command line, and
allows you to run Perl code within the scope of your commandline.

files, which are simply Perl scripts. A package Zoidberg::Shell was
created to have a basic interface (not yet finished, but implemented
functions are more or less stable). Update or remove all files in ~/.zoid
, or zoid will crash. Most documentation was updated.
