[001] - Arena Scripting Language 0.9.1
by Pascal Schmidt (http://freshmeat.net/users/cobol/)
Sat, Jun 3rd 2006 13:45
Software Development :: Interpreters
About: Arena is a light-weight scripting language that features a C-like
syntax and library, automatic memory management, and runtime polymorphism.
Changes: This release fixes a bug in the handling of the "continue"
statement and a possible double free problem in the "for" statement.

[002] - AVR-Ada 0.4.1
by Bernd Trog (http://freshmeat.net/users/berndtrog/)
Sat, Jun 3rd 2006 13:58
Software Development :: Compilers
Software Development :: Embedded Systems
System :: Hardware
About: AVR-Ada aims to make the Ada part of gcc usable on AVR
microcontrollers. This includes the three elements: the Ada compiler, the
Ada run time system, and the AVR support library. Some sample programs are
provided as well.
Changes: The linker (avr-ld) of the binary packages now generates correct
code for avr5 (16k-128K flash memory) targets when called with the --relax
switch (default). Building static libraries with avr-gnatmake no longer
requires a host "gcc" in the search path. Limited support was added for
ATmega2560 and ATmega2561 (beta). mk_ada_app.sh now works independent of
the working directory, and is part of the binary packages. The
Linux/Windows binaries are now based on gcc-4.1.1, avr-libc-1.4.4, and
binutils-2.17.50, and were configured for Ada, C, and C++.

provide additional features, such as a source code window, shortcut keys,
visual setting of breakpoints, regex searching capabilities, and more.

Information Management
Information Management :: Document Repositories
Internet
About: Elgg is a community building platform written in PHP for Apache and
MySQL. It gives you the tools to create active and vibrant learning
communities, featuring Weblogging, podcasting, social networking, file
storage, tag searching, customised user themes, gettext multi-language
support, and more. Users can control exactly who has access to each bit of
their profile, each blog post, file, etc., and then search using tags to
find other resources and people related to the same topic. Although
originally designed for education, it has a broad range of uses in a
variety of different settings.
Changes: The codebase was significantly refactored, including a data
abstraction layer with Postgres compatibility, ClamAV integration, Moodle
integration, an automatic database installation and upgrade engine,

[010] - ExactImage 0.0.13
by René Rebe (http://freshmeat.net/users/ReneRebe/)
Sat, Jun 3rd 2006 04:06
Multimedia :: Graphics
About: ExactImage is a fast C++ image processing library. Unlike
ImageMagick, it allows operation in several color spaces and bit depths
natively, resulting in much lower memory and computational requirements.
Some optimized algorithms operate in 1/20 of the time ImageMagick
requires, and displaying large images can be as fast as 1/10 of the time
the "display" program takes.
Changes: Loading transparent PNG files with a background color has been
fixed to not utilize this color. A default gamma curve is now applied to
16bit linear digital camera RAW files. More colorspace conversions have
been added, The JPEG writer no longer marks data with unknown resolution
as 0x0" (since some other commercial software does not like this). A
rudimentary edentify commandline frontend has been added to identify image
files.

About: Exiv2 is an EXIF and IPTC C++ library that makes reading and
writing Exif and Iptc metadata easy. It provides full Exif makernote and
thumbnail support. The Exiv2 command line utility prints Exif and Iptc

timestamps, renames images according to the Exif timestamp, extracts and
inserts Exif and Iptc metadata and JPEG comments, or deletes the thumbnail
or a specific type of metadata from an image.
Changes: This release adds read-support for TIFF images and a number of
RAW formats, including Nikon NEF, Canon CR2, Pentax PEF, Sony SR2, Adobe
DNG, and Minolta MRW. Other new features include Minolta Makernote support
and command line options for better controlling the output of the Exiv2

developers to base a plugin on.
Changes: Support for Adium-style chat window themes was added. Get Hot New
Stuff was reactivated. Status messages are no longer tied to the online

[031] - PHPGallue 0.3-RC3
by uellue (http://freshmeat.net/users/uellue/)
Sat, Jun 3rd 2006 21:51
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Site Management
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Graphics Conversion
About: PHPGallue is a multi-user, server-oriented image management system
with a Web frontend. PHPGallue is suited for photographers to organize and
publish their work. It allows the user to mark images, groups, categories,
films, and series as private or as only visible to registered users. It is
designed especially for large numbers of images. The Web frontend and
backend libraries are completely separated, so it is easy to integrate
PHPGallue as a management system into existing Web applications.
Changes: This release fixes a security issue by changing some HTTP headers
that forbid caching of restricted information. Previous versions
incorrectly allowed caching of image data that had "protected" visibility.
This release also includes several CSS bugfixes, especially for Internet
Explorer. Updating an existing installation is strongly recommended.

Software Development :: Libraries
About: Protothreads are a type of extremely lightweight, stackless threads

severely memory-constrained systems such as deeply embedded systems, they
have found a number of uses as a general purpose portable library as well.

has yielded, exited, or ended by looking at the return value of a
protothread function.

Office/Business :: Financial :: Accounting
Printing
System
About: PyKota is a full featured, internationalized, centralized, and
extensible print quota system for CUPS. It supports PostgreSQL, OpenLDAP,
MySQL, or SQLite as the quota database backend. This software features
most of what you might expect from a modern print quota and accounting
solution. Its flexibility and configurability greatly eases its
integration into your own computing environment.
Changes: Many fixes were made to accommodate MySQL "features". A locking
mechanism has been introduced to allow several print servers to access the
same device without mixing print jobs and banners. More environment
variables are now accessible to the print administrators' own scripts. The
pkipplib library is now used to directly interact with the print server.

hotkeys to quickly access the most common Remind options, and allows
popup, sound, and/or spoken alarms.

level. All this new functionality is integrated in some form or another via
the new wizards and subsequently the character editor.
