[001] - amavisd-new 2.4.5
by Mark Martinec (http://freshmeat.net/users/mmartinec/)
Tue, Jan 30th 2007 23:20

Communications :: Email :: Filters

About: amavisd-new is a high-performance and reliable interface between
MTAs and one or more content checkers, including virus scanners, and/or
the Mail::SpamAssassin Perl module. It talks to an MTA via (E)SMTP or
LMTP, or by using helper programs. No timing gaps exist in the design,
which could cause a mail loss. It is normally positioned at or near a
central mailer, not necessarily where the user's mailboxes and final
delivery takes place.

Changes: A loop is avoided in p0f-analyzer.pl when stdin is unexpectedly
closed, and its usefulness as a potential UDP reflector for an attacker
from internal networks was limited. The timer is restarted after sophie or
clamd times out, preventing the next attempt from running with no time
limit. Timeout handling was improved in the interface code to daemonized
virus scanners. An unavailable IP address is treated as 0.0.0.0 for the
purpose of looking up a client IP address in mynetworks_maps as a
convenience. A more informative message is reported when a file(1) utility
fails. A tuning tip was added to README.sql on buffer sizes with
MySQL/InnoDB.

[002] - Areca 4.1.6
by Olivier PETRUCCI (http://freshmeat.net/users/aventin/)
Tue, Jan 30th 2007 13:27

System :: Archiving :: Backup

About: Areca is a file backup system that supports data compression and
encryption, incremental backups, a file history explorer, and many other
features. It includes a transaction mechanism, which guarantees the
integrity of your backups. Two user interfaces are available: a
command-line interface (useful for backup process automation) and a
graphical user interface (useful for general administration tasks).

Changes: A target XML encoding bug has been fixed. Some memory
optimizations have been made. Files' last modification dates are now
preserved during recovery.

[005] - Bacula 2.0.2
by Lev_Arris (http://freshmeat.net/users/LevArris/)
Tue, Jan 30th 2007 22:32

System :: Archiving :: Backup

About: Bacula is a set of programs that allow you to manage the backup,
recovery, and verification of computer data across a network of different
computers. It is based on a client/server architecture and is efficient
and relatively easy to use, while offering many advanced storage
management features that make it easy to find and recover lost or damaged
files.

Changes: A crash during open of SQLite3 db where user does not have write
permission was fixed. jobq.c was fixed to restart failed jobs when
Reschedule Times = 0. Win32 build problems were fixed.

[006] - BFilter 1.0.9
by jart (http://freshmeat.net/users/jart/)
Tue, Jan 30th 2007 13:28

Internet :: Proxy Servers
Internet :: WWW/HTTP

About: BFilter is a smart filtering HTTP proxy. Its primary purpose is
removing banner ads. Unlike the majority of similar tools, it doesn't rely
on a list of blocked URLs, but instead parses HTML on the fly, and detects
ads using a set of heuristic rules. BFilter has a built-in Javascript
engine that detects js-generated ads.

Changes: This release fixes a couple of problems with the GUI, as well as
a bug that could cause false positives.

[007] - Cedar Backup 2.10.1
by Kenneth J. Pronovici (http://freshmeat.net/users/pronovic/)
Tue, Jan 30th 2007 23:38

Software Development :: Libraries :: Python Modules
System :: Archiving :: Backup
Utilities

About: Cedar Backup is a software package designed to manage system
backups for a pool of local and remote machines. Cedar Backup understands
how to back up filesystem data as well as MySQL and PostgreSQL databases
and Subversion repositories. It can also be easily extended to support
other kinds of data sources. Cedar Backup is focused around weekly backups
to a single CD or DVD disc. It supports multisession discs, allowing you to
add incremental data to a disc on a daily basis. Cedar Backup also provides
a Python library of backup-related functionality.

Changes: Support for DVD writer devices was added. A new "encrypt"
extension was added to encrypt staging directories and backup discs.
Significant code refactoring, cleanup, and reorganization were done. Minor
bugs were fixed.

[009] - Decimail Server 0.12
by Phil Endecott (http://freshmeat.net/users/endecotp/)
Tue, Jan 30th 2007 07:32

Communications :: Email :: Mail Transport Agents
Communications :: Email :: Post-Office :: IMAP
Database

About: Decimail Server is a mail server supporting IMAP and SMTP that uses
a PostgreSQL database to store messages. Mailboxes are defined using SQL
queries, allowing complex client-independent automatic message filtering
and categorisation. For example you can partition your messages
chronologically, by correspondent, and by mailing list at the same time,
with each message appearing in several mailboxes. You can also use
PostgreSQL's text indexing extension for fast keyword searching. Decimail
also features anti-spam processing of outgoing messages.

Changes: This version adds tsearch2 indexing of message bodies as they are
received. You can then group messages based on keywords that they contain
by creating new mailboxes under "/Keywords". The new mailbox name should
be a tsearch2 query expression that the messages must match.

[011] - Dice3DS 0.5
by aerojockey (http://freshmeat.net/users/aerojockey/)
Tue, Jan 30th 2007 10:56

Multimedia :: Graphics
Multimedia :: Graphics :: 3D Modeling
Multimedia :: Graphics :: 3D Rendering

About: Dice3DS is a set of Pure Python modules for dealing with 3D Studio
format (*.3ds) files. It maps 3DS chunks into a hierarchical set of Python
objects; it's a lot like how ElementTree works for XML files. Dice3DS
requires Python 2.4 or higher, and Numpy. Note that it is not a wrapper
for lib3ds.

Changes: This release uses numpy. However, Numeric should still work if
you change "import numpy" to "import Numeric as numpy". A bug on big
endian machines has been fixed. Nn example module showing how to import
3DS into Blender has been added. The command line tools have been improved
a bit.

Changes: This version introduces many new and unique features to the
editor, providing better output quality and nicer user experience. The new
Enter Key Handler guarantees that the editor will behave in the way you
want when users hit the enter key. The Keyboard Accelerator System makes
it easy to configure the editor to use keyboard shortcuts in unlimited
ways.

[014] - GNU cfengine 2.1.22
by Josh Kelley (http://freshmeat.net/users/yeshua/)
Tue, Jan 30th 2007 10:55

System :: Systems Administration

About: Cfengine is a tool for setting up and maintaining BSD and
System-5-like operating system optionally attached to a TCP/IP network.
You can think of cfengine as a very high level language, much higher level
than Perl or shell: a single statement can result in many hundreds of
operations being performed on multiple hosts. Cfengine is good at
performing a lot of common system administration tasks, and allows you to
build on its strengths with your own scripts. You can also use it as a
netwide front-end for `cron'.

Changes: This release adds an optional full encryption level for recursive
transfers. It also has rewritten database code with an improved cfshow, new
cfenvd features, and various bugfixes.

About: H2 is an SQL database engine written in Java (but also available as
a native binary). JDBC and ODBC APIs are supported. Embedded and server
modes are available. A Web console application is included. Clustering is
supported.

Changes: Online backup using BACKUP TO 'fileName' is now implemented. A
TPC-B like benchmark has been included. The H2 Console is now translated
to Hungarian and Indonesian. UUID columns can be used as generated key
values. It was possible that SUM threw a class cast exception. Several
bugs in the XAConnection have been fixed. If the result set of a subquery
was re-used, an exception was thrown if the subquery result did not fit in
memory. The command "drop all objects delete files" did not work on Linux.
Temporary files are now deleted earlier. Forum subscriptions work now.

[021] - HTML::Template 2.9
by Sam Tregar (http://freshmeat.net/users/sunking/)
Tue, Jan 30th 2007 11:25

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

About: The HTML::Template module attempts to make using HTML templates
simple and natural. It extends standard HTML with a few new tags for
variables, loops, if/else blocks and includes. A file written with HTML
and these new tags is called a template. Using this module you fill in the
values for the variables and loops declared in the template. This allows
you to seperate design (the HTML) from the data, which you generate in the
Perl script. While there are many other HTML template systems available,
this module is simple and fast. It doesn't try to reinvent Perl CGI, it
just augments HTML with a few new and very useful abilities.

Changes: A new option was added to enforce Taint mode for unescaped
variables. Several long-standing bugs were fixed. The enhanced tests
produced by the Phalanx project are now part of the module.

[023] - IzPack 3.10.0 (Stable)
by Julien Ponge (http://freshmeat.net/users/JPz/)
Tue, Jan 30th 2007 13:57

Software Development
System :: Installation/Setup
System :: Software Distribution

About: IzPack is a powerful Java installer builder. It is able to create
lightweight and modular installers. You have the choice of the installer
panels you want to use (some can do the same job, so that you can select
the one you prefer), and you even have the choice of the kind of installer
that you want to use. IzPack doesn't use any portion of native code, it is
designed to be fully independent from the operating system that runs it.
It is very easy for the end user with a properly installed JVM to use an
installer made with IzPack, since a single "java -jar installer.jar" will
launch it.

Changes: This release brings many new features and fixes, and users are
encouraged to migrate to it.

cdda2wav, lame, oggenc/oggdec, flac, and faac/faad programs. It can load
CD track names from freedb.org or by using the cdda2wav program.

Changes: A minor Java 1.6 incompatibility was fixed. jRipper can dump a
multi track CD to a single track (with an optional cue sheet). Two more
directory layout options were added. All the ripper programs (for Windows)
were updated. A few internal tweaks were made.

by Daniel Naber (http://freshmeat.net/users/dnaber/)
Tue, Jan 30th 2007 22:41

About: LanguageTool is a style and grammar checker that currently supports
English, German, Polish, and Dutch, and offers initial support for other
languages like French and Spanish. It scans the words and their

Java. LanguageTool should be used after the spelling of a text has been
corrected.

Changes: The rules for English, Dutch, German, and Polish have been
improved. Many incorrect error messages (false alarms) have been fixed. A
new XML output is used, which is compatible with other grammar checkers
like An Gramadoir.

About: mxGraph is a JavaScript library that uses built-in browser
capabilities to provide an interactive drawing and diagramming solution.
Target applications are Web based applications that require workflow/BPM,
diagram, network, or general graph editing to be available in-place on a
Web page.

Changes: The release adds Java and .NET backend examples to the existing
PHP example, including diagram sharing and I/O in the Java example. The
key handler has been changed to not consume all key events for the page;
only key events from the graph container are processed. The automatic tree
layout now positions the layout correctly in the visible area. The in-place
editor position is now wherever the label is, and no longer jumps around. A
"snapshot" action has been added to request that the current back-end
produce and transfer a static image of the current graph.

[036] - PHP mySQL Database Wrapper Class 1.0.8
by Stefan Gabos (http://freshmeat.net/users/stefangabos/)
Tue, Jan 30th 2007 14:25

Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes

About: PHP mySQL Database Wrapper Class provides a set of methods for
interacting with a MySQL database easily and securely. Most of the methods
are extended versions of PHP's native functions, but providing a lot more
functionality and powerful debugging features. There are also new methods
that greatly simplify the process of executing specific queries like
returning specific rows or even single values from specific rows, SUM(),
COUNT(), and MAX() queries.

Changes: A bug when working with queries using replacements, and having
question marks in the replacements has been fixed. You no longer have to
specify anymore the _FILE__ and __LINE__ magic constants; the class now
relies on the debug_backtrace() PHP function to get where the methods are
called from. A new "fetch_obj" method is an alias of MySQL's
mysql_fetch_object function. Warnings of the same query being run multiple
times were incorrectly being displayed.

About: Stunnix Advanced Web Server is a Web server for putting Web sites
onto CDROMs, DVDs, FlashDisks, and other readonly media to be used on any
typical system. Sites can be scripted with PHP or Perl and can be driven
by MySQL or SQLite databases. All required software programs are designed
to reside on the CDROM to avoid the need to install software on the user's
computer. The Web serving core is based on Apache 1.3.x, and has additional
functionality to detect and use free ports, automatically start a browser
on each platform, and to stop the Web server once a resource with a
special name is visited. Desktop applications can also be created with it.

sites on them, with Java and Tomcat running directly off the same CD-ROM
on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. Tomcat appears to the user on the same
port as the main Web server. The CDBuilder GUI has support for installing
packages. Some polishing of CDBuilder has been performed. Packages
providing a different version of JRE have been created.

by Alain (http://freshmeat.net/users/alainknaff/)
Tue, Jan 30th 2007 07:46

Communications
Communications :: File Sharing
Internet :: File Transfer Protocol (FTP)

About: UDPCast allows to send data simultaneously to many destinations on
a local net. This can for instance be used to install entire classrooms of
PCs at once. The advantage over using other methods (nfs, ftp, whatever) is
that udpcast uses Ethernet's multicast abilities: it won't take longer to
install 15 machines than it would to install 2. The tool comes with a
busybox bootdisk for easy loading of the tool. However, udpcast can also
be started from the command line of an already installed system, and can
be used for other purposes than just system installation.

Changes: This release now compiles cleanly on Darwin. The code was adapted
to be compatible with Linux kernel 2.6.19.2 and busybox 1.3.2. The
--start-timeout feature was added in receiver.

reports the character ranges to which different portions of the text
belong. unihist generates a histogram of the characters in its input.
ExplicateUTF8 is intended for debugging or for learning about Unicode. It
determines and explains the validity of a sequence of bytes as a UTF-8
encoding. unirev reverses UTF-8 strings.

Changes: This release adds the utility unirev, a filter that reverses
UTF-8 strings character-by-character. The package name has changed.
