[001] - Aegis 4.19
by Peter Miller (http://freshmeat.net/users/pmiller/)
Fri, Oct 1st 2004 02:04

Software Development :: Build Tools
Software Development :: Testing
Software Development :: Version Control

About: Aegis is a transaction-based software configuration management
system. It provides a framework within which a team of developers may work
on many changes to a program independently, and Aegis coordinates
integrating these changes back into the master source of the program, with
as little disruption as possible. Aegis supports geographically distributed
development.

Changes: There is a new development_directory_style field of the project
configuration file. This allows CVS-style and Arch-style work areas, in
addition to the BCS-style and viewpath work areas already supported. These
new work area styles permit many existing projects to use Aegis with no
change to their build systems. There is a new aediff(1) command, which may
be used to obtain a diff(1) listing of a file for different deltas. Support
has been added for "Signed-off-by" lines. Several build problems and bugs
have been fixed.

[002] - aircrack 2.1
by Christophe Devine (http://freshmeat.net/users/devine10/)
Fri, Oct 1st 2004 14:25

Security

About: aircrack is an 802.11 WEP cracking program that can recover a
40-bit or 104-bit WEP key once enough encrypted packets have been
gathered. It implements the standard FMS attack along with some
optimizations, thus making the attack much faster compared to other WEP
cracking tools.

Changes: This release features WPA and 802.11g detection in airodump. It
also adds a Win32 port of the 802ether WEP decryption tool, and brings
support for cracking 256 and 512-bit WEP keys in aircrack.

[003] - Animail 2.0.11
by Juanjo A. Martínez (http://freshmeat.net/users/juanjux/)
Fri, Oct 1st 2004 22:05

Communications :: Email :: Filters
Communications :: Email :: Mail Transport Agents

About: Animail is a multiserver POP3/APOP/IMAP4 (with or without SSL) mail
retrieval utility. It features an advanced filtering system based on
blacklisting, whitelisting, or a combination of both. It is possible to
send an autoresponse which prompts people to reply and add themselves to
the 'autoaccept' file. It also allows filters based on regular expressions
which match against the email headers. (If a message is filtered, only the
header is downloaded, not the entire body.) Combining external filtering
programs (e.g. SpamAssassin or Bogofilter) as message post-download
plugins is also easily acomplished, thus extending filtering capabilities
in an unlimited way. Available delivery options include mailbox, maildir,
local SMTP, and pipe to a command.

Changes: An option to activate a kdialog notification (if available) at
the end of the download process was added. A new "MinimalPostFilterMatch"
option was added for specifying how many postfilters must mark a message
as spam for it to be filtered. The documentation and the sample
configuration files were updated to add information about using SpamBayes
as a postfilter.

[004] - AnomicHTTPProxy 0.28
by Michael Christen (http://freshmeat.net/users/Orbiter/)
Fri, Oct 1st 2004 08:49

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
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 for the Web. 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: This release adds search hints for search requests, speeds p2p
connections, and provides some bugfixes.

[005] - AudienceConnect 1.0.beta.10
by Richard Harris (http://freshmeat.net/users/goosequill/)
Fri, Oct 1st 2004 08:28

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Site Management

About: AudienceConnect is a revenue-generating Python CGI solution for
independent content providers. Requests for dynamic content or content
sets are routed through PayPal. Previews are generated as static HTML for
search engines to harvest. Demo site content is text for e-publishing, but
AudienceConnect can be easily extended to deliver other MIME types: sound
files, image files, etc.

Changes: Independent subsites can now be created and later relocated to
their own server with minimal effort. The editorial queue now accepts
multiple passwords with multiple editors restricted by type, allows IP
security for each editor, and may have an editor with access to all types.
AC_remote.html now lets you manage a site remotely. AC_Editor can now
create a data directory and remove a data directory, data file, or
doc_root HTML. READMEs in the installation have been replaced with an
online manual.

[007] - BugPort 1.134
by Jason Miller (millz) (http://freshmeat.net/users/millz/)
Fri, Oct 1st 2004 11:32

Information Management :: Issue Tracking
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Software Development :: Bug Tracking

About: The BugPort system is a Web-based system to manage tasks and
defects throughout the software development process. It is written with
the PHP language, using its object-oriented capabilities, and is in use by
INCOGEN for internal management of software development and QA.

[009] - Bygfoot Football Manager. 1.6.2
by gyboth (http://freshmeat.net/users/gyboth/)
Fri, Oct 1st 2004 08:46

Games/Entertainment :: Simulation

About: Bygfoot is a small and simple football (a.k.a. soccer) manager game
featuring the most important European leagues and cups. You manage a team
from one such league: you form the team, buy and sell players, get
promoted or relegated, and of course try to be successful.

Changes: This release improves the update script, adds an updated country
file for Italy, fixes a bug that led to no ticket income for cup games,
fixes a bug that occurred when you made a stadium enlargement over several
weeks, and replaces the official team and player names because of trademark
issues (the official names can be downloaded from http://www.bygfoot.com/).

[013] - Conary 0.10.4
by Michael K. Johnson (http://freshmeat.net/users/johnsonm/)
Fri, Oct 1st 2004 14:26

Software Development :: Version Control
System :: Archiving :: Packaging
System :: Installation/Setup

About: Conary is a distributed software management system for Linux
distributions. It replaces traditional package management solutions (such
as RPM and dpkg) with one designed to enable loose collaboration across
the Internet. It enables sets of distributed and loosely connected
repositories to define the components which are installed on a Linux
system. Rather then having a full distribution come from a single vendor,
it allows administrators and developers to branch a distribution, keeping
the pieces which fit their environment while grabbing components from
other repositories across the Internet.

Changes: Distributed branching between repositories now works. To support
this, the network protocol has been changed so that the client now
accumulates individual changesets, even from different repositories, into
transactions. The network protocol has been changed, with some backward
compatibility; current clients need current servers, but older 0.10
clients can still talk to new servers. Packages no longer inherit
component dependencies; dependencies are resolved entirely at the
component level. Several smaller bugfixes, added policy, and performance
enhancements round out this release.

employees to set vacation periods and print customizable vacation papers.
It allows supervisors to modify, delete, and validate vacation periods. A
notion of groups is available, and each group supervisor can see a Gantt
diagram of the corresponding group of employees.

Changes: This release fixes some bugs and adds some minor enhancements,
but mainly increases performance in XML reading. If you have an older
release, read the migration documentation.

[015] - Connect Daily Web Calendar 3.1.0
by George Sexton (http://freshmeat.net/users/gsexton/)
Fri, Oct 1st 2004 11:16

Internet
Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries

About: Connect Daily, a Web-based calendaring system, allows multiple
users to add and edit calendar events using a Web browser. The calendar

processes allow many users to edit calendars, with the assurance that all
items added are approved. It supports event download to MS Outlook and
Palm OS PDAs. Export to iCal clients like KOrganizer, Evolution, and Apple
iCal is supported. Authentication to LDAP directories is also supported.

Changes: This release adds a setup and teardown event feature to simplify
resource management. Resources can now be marked as shared to allow use by
multiple events. Support has been added for attaching binary files and
additional URLs to calendar events. Unlimited files can be attached to
events. Calendars can be exported in text/CSV format. User-level
preferences for showing stop times and resources were added.
Administrators can now modify the preference settings of users.

[025] - Firewall Builder 2.0.3
by Vadim Kurland (http://freshmeat.net/users/vkurland/)
Fri, Oct 1st 2004 14:22

System :: Networking :: Firewalls

About: Firewall Builder consists of a GUI and set of policy compilers for
various firewall platforms. It helps users maintain a database of objects
and allows policy editing using simple drag-and-drop operations. The GUI
and policy compilers are completely independent, which provides for a
consistent abstract model and the same GUI for different firewall
platforms. It currently supports iptables, ipfilter, ipfw, OpenBSD pf, and
Cisco PIX.

Changes: This release improves support for the PF firewall by always using
tables in policy rules; it assigns "rdr" rules to interfaces and adds
"flags S/SA" to policy rules that keep state. The optimizer for iptables
has been improved. A compiler for iptables can add a rule to block packets
that correspond to an INVALID state. A built-in policy installer can
compress a firewall policy script before it is installed in flash memory
on Linksys/Sveasoft firewalls. An option has been added to the installer

[026] - Firewall Builder for PIX 1.1.5
by Vadim Kurland (http://freshmeat.net/users/vkurland/)
Fri, Oct 1st 2004 22:15

Security
System :: Networking :: Firewalls

About: Firewall Builder for PIX hides the complexity of PIX command line
interface and automatically configures options and parameters that
usually make manual configuration a real chore. With this module, the
same workstation running Firewall Builder can create and manage security
policy on Cisco PIX firewalls, as well as on firewalls built with
iptables, OpenBSD pf, or ipfilter.

Changes: This release fixed a bug that could cause the compiler to
generate incorrect ACL commands for policy rules that permitted or denied
access to NATted hosts. This bug was triggered by a rare combination of
configurations of the firewall interfaces. This compiler works with
Firewall Builder GUI 2.0.3.

Fri, Oct 1st 2004 04:15

Software Development :: Libraries
System :: Filesystems

About: libferris is a virtual filesystem that exposes hierarchical data of
all kinds through a common C++ interface. Access to data is performed using
C++ IOStreams and Extended Attributes (EA) can be attached to each file or
directory to present metadata. Ferris uses a plugin API to read various
data sources and expose them as filesystems and to generate interesting
EA. Current implementations include native (kernel disk IO with event
updates using fam), XML (mount an XML file as a filesystem), DB4, xmldb,
LDAP, HTTP, FTP, eet, sockets, RDF/XML, RDF/bdb, and mbox. EA generators
include image, audio, and animation decoders.

Changes: The stldb4 eaindex module was redesigned for more efficient
lookups, which makes the disk format incompatible with 1.1.33. Numerous
bugfixes were made for the ODBC indexing module, and the index format
remains fully compatible with 1.1.33. Both indexing modules are now
considerably faster in lookups. The --filelist-file option was added to
findexadd and feaindexadd. A bugfix was made for a segv in eaindex
creation. A bugfix was made for a segv in some cases with the PNG loader.
Minor bugfixes were made to the time parsing code.

Fri, Oct 1st 2004 04:09

Database
Software Development :: Libraries

About: libstldb4 is a C++ wrapper for the sleepycat db4 database. It uses
the STL in the API where sensible, allows standard IOStreams for data
access where sensible, e.g. getting the value of a key should be able to
use an istream interface to allow simple partial value retreival, and
moves the transaction parameter to be the last optional parameter or
provides two versions of the same method for trans/nontrans. The API has
been modified to use more standard types. Operator overloading is used to
allow quick and dirty coding (mydb[ "key" ] = "value";) to set and cerr.

Changes: The default cachesize for databases without environment is now
1Mb instead of the default for db4 (256k). The build option
--enable-wrapdebug is no longer forced. The set_cachesize API was exposed.

export/system that can also export and import asset data in a zip file.
The forms editor and kupu now both support abbr and acronym. There is a
new, faster parser for the SilvaDocument forms-based editor, using an HTML
subset instead of the old-style method using special characters.

[073] - SOPE Application Server 4.3.8
by OpenGroupware.org (http://freshmeat.net/users/helge5/)
Fri, Oct 1st 2004 14:19

Software Development :: Libraries
Text Processing :: Markup :: XML

About: The SOPE package is an extensive set of frameworks (16 frameworks,
~1500 classes) which form a complete Web application server environment.
Besides the Apple WebObjects compatible appserver extended with Zope
concepts, it contains a large set of reusable classes: XML processing
(SAX, DOM, XML-RPC), MIME/IMAP4 processing, LDAP connectivity, RDBMS
connectivity, and iCalendar parsing. The parts of the package can be used
stand-alone (e.g. in Cocoa applications) and do not require the appserver
parts. For MacOSX developers, the package includes SOPE:X, which contains
special Xcode and Cocoa support for SOPE.

Changes: This is the first release after 4.2 that comes with working RPMs
and working Xcode projects for Mac OS X. Various minor cleanups and fixes
were made, including a fix for a runaway in the MIME parser (bug #936).
Enhancements include the NGResourceLocator for FHS resource lookups, an
improved IMAP4 sort API, better WebDAV LOCK support, and a modification to
the treeview element so that it doesn't require a session.

[074] - Spam Trainer 0.1.1
by ashtong (http://freshmeat.net/users/ashtong/)
Fri, Oct 1st 2004 02:00

Communications :: Email
Communications :: Email :: Filters
Desktop Environment :: Gnome

About: Spam Trainer makes it easier for GNOME users to train spam
filtering software (e.g. SpamBayes or SpamAssassin) that "learns" how to
tell the difference between real email (ham) and unsolicited messages
(spam). Not all email clients have spam filtering (and training) built
in, and training external filtering programs can be fiddly. Spam Trainer
provides easy (drag and drop) training from the Evolution mail client, and
should work just as well with any email client that supports the drag and
drop protocol implemented by the GTK+ toolkit.

Changes: This release fixes some minor problems that some people were
experiencing when Spam Trainer attempted to access its configuration
settings.
