[002] - AnomicHTTPProxy 0.26
by Michael Christen (http://freshmeat.net/users/Orbiter/)
Sun, Sep 19th 2004 07:36
Communications :: File Sharing
Information Management
Internet :: Name Service (DNS)
About: The AnomicHTTPProxy is a caching proxy. Pages that pass through the
proxy are indexed and can be searched using a built-in HTTP server. Proxies
can connect each other and form a P2P-based index exchange network based on
distributed hash tables. The proxy can therefore be used as a global search
and distributed indexing engine. It also provides URL filtering with
blacklist sharing among other proxy peers, individual Web/servlet page
hosting, a file sharing zone, and a database engine.
Changes: A new password-controlled file-sharing servlet was added. There
is now support for personal Web pages. The proxy now resolves peer names
with the "yacy" TLD into the peer's address. Interface clean-up was done,
and many bugs regarding HTTP proxy service and P2P network bootstraping
were fixed.

About: GTK Photo Gallery is an album to manage small and medium-sized
photograph collections. It allows quick management by processing multiple
files together. Rotate, delete, move, and manage descriptions can be done
for all files in one directory at once. It is possible to upload pictures
to an online laboratory to order prints. GTK Photo Gallery is implemented
with GTK2-Perl, and due to the lack of a Web server in between, it is much
faster than CGI-based scripts. It uses the same directory structure as
(and can be used together with) My Photo Gallery (a set of CGI scripts).
It is possible to export (and import) an Album into 700 MB large parts for
easy CD backup, including static HTML pages to navigate the CD. This can
also be used to create a simple album for the Web.
Changes: Smaller changes and code cleanups were done. File names and
directoriy names can be in the local character set and can contain white
spaces now. There are proper directory links in HTML pages, and more exact
division of parts on export.

Communications :: Chat :: Internet Relay Chat
About: Guifications is a Gaim plugin that adds notification windows
styled after those found in MSN, deadaim, and newer versions of AIM,
Yahoo instant messenger, and a lot of other applications.
Changes: A preference option was added to not show notifications when the
screen saver is active. The columns of the notification and theme lists
are now sortable. A problem with buddy icons was fixed and a duplicate
button was added to the theme editor's toolbar to duplicate a
notification or an item. Image corruption issues were fixed. Icon items
of buddy icons or status icons now fall back to the protocol icon if the
person does not have a buddy icon or is not a buddy. The plugin was
updated to work with gaim 1.0.0.

[039] - Jukebox Sound Visualization 1.0.1
by pinksky (http://freshmeat.net/users/rkoren/)
Sun, Sep 19th 2004 06:50
About: Jukebox Sound Visualization is a tool to graphically display sounds
read from the sound device. This application reproduces compressed audio
and CDA files. In particular, it tries to manage the CDROM drive. Metadata
contained in audio files are stored in a database to allow searching for
specific information. The database also keeps track of whether files are
stored on a removable storage device. The visualization routine is a plot
of the flow produced by the Power Spectrum Density of the audio currently
reproduced.
Changes: This is the first working version. A lot of features are still
missing. Currently, the audio is managed with the esound libraries and
graphics are drawn with the X11 libraries.

Security
Security :: Cryptography
About: KisKis (Keep It Secret! Keep It Safe!) is an easy-to-use password
manager. It allows the user to manage passwords for many different
purposes, including network or Internet accounts, credit-card pin-numbers,
and password-secured files. The accounts can be grouped hierarchically
within a tree structure. Each account can be described by multiple
attributes (such as user name or URL) and comments. The history of each
password change can be tracked. All passwords are stored in a single XML
file using OpenPGP messages.
Changes: The new splitpane-divider position is now saved. Saving a
document now creates backup copies. XML documents have now a doctype
declaration. (validation will be activated in the next release for
compatibility reasons). The desktop can be locked and hidden. The program
can be locked after n minutes of inactivity. Opened documents can be
closed. Opening an invalid document creates better error messages.
Upgraded to Bouncycastle v1.24-lib. A locking problem when using the
auto-save file routine is fixed. XML uses UTF-8 as a charset.

configuration or loads a new configuration. As for bugfixes, children
(leftover from automated actions) are now collected by the parent; some
code cleanup was applied to the user tree in order to remove remainders of
the original 'allowed commands' feature. There were no changes for the

(like Op, Deop, Ban, and Unban). IrcClient, the high-level API, is a
full-featured IRC class, with channel syncing and an event driven model.
Channel syncing tracks users, modes, and topics in objects, and user
syncing does the same for nicks, indents, hosts, realnames, servers, and
hopcounts.

[065] - stash 0.4.11
by Rob Wyrick (http://freshmeat.net/users/wyrickre/)
Sun, Sep 19th 2004 20:02
System :: Archiving :: Packaging
System :: Installation/Setup
System :: Software Distribution
About: stash is a Perl script that aims to make it easier for you to
install, track, and maintain packages and modules in your home directory.
It performs this magic by detecting what type of package or module you are
installing and then passing all the correct command line arguments to the
relevant configure scripts and makefiles. It is extensible via custom
packages, and it tracks both architecture dependent and architecture
independent packages in separate directories so that they might be shared
across systems. Package tracking is done using symlinks in a way not
unlike GNU stow.
Changes: This release can handle perl Bundles. A new XercesC package has
been added.

[071] - vsound 0.5
by fuzzbucket (http://freshmeat.net/users/fuzzbucket/)
Sun, Sep 19th 2004 03:50
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Capture/Recording
About: vsound allows you to record the output of any standard OSS program
that uses /dev/dsp without having to modify or recompile the program. It
uses the same idea as the esddsp wrapper and preloads a library that
intercepts calls to open /dev/dsp and returns a handle to a normal file.
It also intercepts IOCTLs on that file handle and logs them to help
convert the audio data from its raw form. It then uses sox to convert the
raw data to the desired file format.

[075] - Yeemp Encrypted Messaging Program 0.9.8
by Deekoo L. (http://freshmeat.net/users/deekoo/)
Sun, Sep 19th 2004 20:01
Communications :: Chat
About: Yeemp is a decentralized instant messaging system. It uses GPG over
SSL for encryption, and UTF-8 to enable non-Latin text to be transferred.
The clients include support for Japanese, Cyrillic, and Ogham input, as
well as direct UTF-8. Yeemp includes a command-line client, an X client, a
server, and a simple Web-based client. The clients can also use the AIM and
ICQ protocols.
Changes: The client now deletes inbound keys from the server only after
the user has decided whether or not to accept them. Unhandleable public
keys can no longer be imported. Manual rekeying now actually generates
new keys, not just new key requests. The AIM plugin now strips HTML
case-insensitively, and removes I tags. Various places where the client
settings would get clobbered if the disk filled up while writing them
have been fixed.
