[015] - DOMIT! 0.98

  Wed, Sep 29th 2004 00:34

Internet
Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes
Text Processing :: Markup :: XML

About: DOMIT! is an XML parser for PHP. It is lightweight, fast, and
implements a generous subset of the DOM Level 2 specification. The primary
goal of DOMIT! is to provide PHP developers with a standards-compliant
means of working with XML, thus ensuring more portable and communicable
code. DOMIT! is not an extension; it is written purely in PHP and should
therefore run on any Web hosting platform with PHP 4 and above installed.
DOMIT! requires coupling with a SAX parser. You can use either the SAXY
parser that comes bundled with DOMIT! or the Expat parser that is included
in most later PHP distributions.

Changes: This release adds PHP 5 compatibility and introduces HTTP proxy
connections with basic authorization, as well as a number of helper
methods.

[016] - DOMIT! RSS Parser for PHP 0.3
  by John Heinstein (http://freshmeat.net/users/jheinstein/)
  Wed, Sep 29th 2004 00:34

Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes
Text Processing :: Markup :: XML

About: DOMIT! RSS is an RSS parser for PHP. It does not require the
installation of extensions beyond the basic PHP distribution. Unlike most
existing PHP RSS clients, it uses a DOM XML parser (DOMIT!) to convert an
RSS feed into a DOM document that can be traversed using the standard DOM
methods. It is able to parse all flavors of RSS feed, and its API is
designed to work identically across all versions. Its caching mechanism
saves a local copy of the RSS feed and updates it only at specified
intervals. It is able to detect certain types of non-compliant XML and
repair them. The lightweight DOMIT! RSS Lite is available for users who
wish only to extract title, link, and description elements from a feed.

Changes: This release introduces HTTP proxy connections with basic
authorization, and fixes a bug in the parsing of comments.

  Wed, Sep 29th 2004 16:29

Internet
System :: Diagnostics
System :: Logging

About: ICPLD (Internet Connection Performance Logging Daemon) is a
connection monitor that sends ICMP requests to IP addresses of your choice
and monitors if your machine has a working network connection. It logs
failed attempts to reach the hosts, and will stamp a log as soon as a
reply is received. It keeps track of when and for how long the connection
was unavailable and records both total down time and each occasion of
interrupted connection. It supports IPv6 and can execute a command
whenever a connection goes up or down, which is useful for alerting users.

Changes: The log-turning system has been enhanced, and now mimics the
infamous 'logrotate' behaviour, meaning that turned logs are now suffixed
with an incremented number instead of overwriting the old turned log. The
-status argument only shows info for the currently running checks, e.g. it
doesn't show IPv4 information when running in IPv6-only mode.

[058] - Runabout 2.1.0
  by Christian Grothoff (http://freshmeat.net/users/grothoff/)
  Wed, Sep 29th 2004 23:59

Software Development :: Compilers
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries

About: The Runabout is an extension of the Java libraries that adds
two-argument multi-dispatch to Java without changing the language or the
VM. It uses reflection to find visit methods, which are invoked using
dynamically generated and loaded code. The Runabout does not need a
special compiler or changes to Java's syntax. Dispatch with the Runabout
is fairly fast, typically a factor of two to ten times slower than double
dispatch. With the Runabout Optimizer code, the Runabout can be converted
to use double-dispatch instead of reflection and dynamic loading. The
Runabout is useful since it can help to make code faster and more
readable. For example, a sequence of instanceof tests is a clear sign that
a Runabout should be used instead.

Changes: This release fixed various bugs in the Runabout Optimizer that
could lead to the generation of invalid bytecode under certain
circumstances. It also fixed handing of the line number and local variable
attributes.

deeper and see the actual session output.

  Wed, Sep 29th 2004 14:58

System :: Archiving :: Backup
System :: Clustering/Distributed Networks
System :: Installation/Setup

About: SystemImager automates the installation of Linux to masses of

workstations have the same basic hardware configuration.

Changes: This release uses a pre-install script to turn on DMA for ATA
devices. SSH is included as part of the standard build and standard
release. All commands have been renamed to use the "si_" prefix, which
allows for tab completion with a shell like zsh. sfdisk.rul has been
removed; the project hasn't been using sfdisk for quite a while now.
util-linux.rul has been added for mkswap that supports over 2G on IA-32.
