[006] - Charles Web Debugging Proxy 2.6.2
by karl (http://freshmeat.net/users/karlvr/)
Wed, Jan 31st 2007 14:40

Internet :: Proxy Servers
Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Software Development :: Debuggers

About: Charles is a Web debugging tool, HTTP monitor, and reverse HTTP
proxy for Web developers that includes plain text debugging of HTTPS/SSL.
It is built in Java Swing, and runs on all Java platforms. It is an HTTP
proxy server that displays requests and responses, complete with HTTP
headers. This enables the developer to examine the exact content of HTTP
exchanges, including cookies, caching, and redirects. It can also throttle
your connection in order to simulate modem conditions. It is a valuable
tool for all Web developers and is especially useful for debugging XML
RCP, SOAP, Web services, AJAX/XMLHTTP, and Macromedia Flash client-server
traffic including AMF, AMF 3, LoadVars, and XML Sockets.

Changes: Large responses are now stored in temporary files, reducing
memory usage and removing the need for recording limits. The throttling
feature now avoids fragmenting throttled packets by introducing an MTU
setting. AMF3/Flex 2 parsing was improved. Various improvements were made
to viewers including the multipart body, JSON, and Authentication viewers.

[012] - dnshistory 1.3
by Steve McInerney (http://freshmeat.net/users/spm999/)
Wed, Jan 31st 2007 07:18

Internet :: Log Analysis
Internet :: Name Service (DNS)

About: dnshistory provides a means for storing a history of DNS/name
changes over time from the IP Addresses gathered from within Web log
files. At its simplest, it will do massively parallel name lookups very
quickly. The lookups are not DNS only, and will use whatever naming
services your system is configured with. A second mode will take a Web log
file and replace the IP addresses with the previously stored names, sending
the resulting output to STDOUT.

Changes: This is practically identical to 1.3-beta1.

[013] - FlightFeather Social Networking Platform 0.3.2 (Development)
by George Belotsky (http://freshmeat.net/users/thrustbearing/)
Wed, Jan 31st 2007 11:13

Database :: Database Engines/Servers
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: Message Boards

About: FlightFeather's goal is "social networking for everyone". This
means that anyone should have a chance to run a popular social networking
site on minimal hardware, and without wasting bandwidth. Whenever the
system's state changes, it generates static HTML pages. Pure read
operations (usually about 90% of the total) do not require the application
to run at all. Although FlightFeather is at an early stage of development,
it is already functional, and runs the "bosstats.com" site.

Changes: This release updates the submission feature (which currently
supports Digg) introduced in version 0.3.0. The old behavior was to submit
article body text only up to the first URL in the story. The new approach
submits the maximum allowed text, including any URLs encountered along the
way. In the future, there may be an option to enable the old behavior, as
well as other, alternative ways to process submissions.

Software Development :: Quality Assurance
Software Development :: Testing

About: GAJET (Genetic Alrogithm for Java Evolutionary Testing) is an
automatic test generation tool for Java that uses a genetic algorithm. It
uses EMMA to measure test coverage.

Changes: A lot of changes and improvements were made. This is still mostly
undocumented, but you can see the gajet-tests directory in the SVN
repository for usage examples.

[017] - GNU Lightning 1.2b
by Paolo Bonzini (http://freshmeat.net/users/bonzini/)
Wed, Jan 31st 2007 08:07

Software Development :: Code Generators
Software Development :: Compilers
Software Development :: Libraries

About: GNU Lightning is a library that generates assembly language code
at run time. It is very fast, making it ideal for Just-In-Time compilers,
and it abstracts over the target CPU, as it exposes to the clients a
standardized RISC instruction set (inspired by the MIPS and SPARC chips).

Changes: This is a development version, but it should be stable except for
the new x86-64 back-end. Other new features include support for allocation
of stack-based variables, support for Mac OS X/Intel. Many bugs were fixed
in the SPARC backend. The "push" and "pop" opcodes are now deprecated
because of differences in the stack layout of various ABIs; stack-based
variables should be used instead.

System :: Networking :: Monitoring

About: grmd is a resource lock management daemon, for Unix-like systems.
It supports both shared and exclusive locks, and deadlock detection. In
the event of a deadlock, it will notify the applications involved
immediately. In addition to the C API, it provides a simple Perl
interface.

Changes: "getpr" and "getrp" functions were added to get resource status.
grmd_sweep.pl was added to force unlocking for a zombie lock.

[020] - gscan2pdf 0.9.2
by Jeff (http://freshmeat.net/users/3ra28145/)
Wed, Jan 31st 2007 14:36

Multimedia :: Graphics :: Capture :: Scanners
Office/Business

About: gscan2pdf is a GUI to ease the process of producing PDFs from
scanned documents. You scan in one or several pages and create a PDF of
selected pages. At maturity, the GUI will have similar features to that of
the Windows Imaging program, but with the express objective of writing a
PDF, including metadata. Scanning is handled with SANE via scanimage. PDF
conversion is done by libtiff. Perl is used for portability and ease of
programming, with gtk2-perl for the GUI.

Changes: The Czech translation has been updated, and a Spanish translation
added. This release passes image depth to ImageMagick to ensure rotation
produces a valid TIFF. DjVu support has been added. A bug has been fixed
where device-dependent options disappeared if the frontend changed while
the scan dialog was hidden. There is a progress bar while updating
device-dependent options. Unpaper support and undo/redo have been added.

[022] - HTTP Anti Virus Proxy 0.84
by havp (http://freshmeat.net/users/havp/)
Wed, Jan 31st 2007 07:46

Internet :: Proxy Servers
Internet :: WWW/HTTP
System :: Networking :: Firewalls

About: HAVP (HTTP Anti Virus Proxy) is a proxy which scans downloads for
viruses with several scanners (ClamAV, F-Prot, Kaspersky, NOD32, Sophos)
at the same time. The main aims are continuous, non-blocking downloads and
smooth scanning of dynamic and password protected HTTP traffic. It can be
used with squid or standalone, and it also supports transparent proxy
mode.

Changes: A bug was fixed in the TCP buffer. This bug sometimes caused
requests to leak to other clients. Support for Arcavir scanner was added.
Multiple IP addresses are supported in hostnames, and all are tried if
necessary. The Proxy-Authorization header is passed to the parent proxy.
Scanner errors are ignored if MAXSCANSIZE is reached. The build system was
polished a bit (--prefix supported). Support for old NOD32 scanner (set
NOD32VERSION in config) was added. The default for MAXSCANSIZE is 5000000,
and it is not suggested to be 0 anymore.

[023] - InspIRCd 1.1.0
by peavey (http://freshmeat.net/users/peavey/)
Wed, Jan 31st 2007 17:24

Communications :: Chat :: Internet Relay Chat

About: InspIRCd is a fully modular IRC daemon with modular SSL (gnutls or
OpenSSL), ziplinks (through zlib) support, advanced spam filters, flood
controls, settable operator levels, and SQL login using PostgreSQL, MySQL,
or SQLite.

Changes: This release is more stable than ever. It supports SSL between
server to server links, in replacement of the custom AES encryption
previously supported. As before, either the GnuTLS or OpenSSL libraries
may be used. It can optionally zip server to server traffic to compress
bandwidth usage. This requires the zlib compression library.

[024] - Jaikoz 1.4
by paul taylor (http://freshmeat.net/users/paultaylor1/)
Wed, Jan 31st 2007 22:37

Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Editors

About: Jaikoz is a powerful tag editor that allows you to organize, edit,
and correct thousands of audio tags with ease. Jaikoz has powerful
automation features. Jaikoz uses MusicBrainz and MusicIP, online databases
of over 5 million songs, which can match your songs automtically based on
the actual music as well as the metadata. Jaikoz uses a convenient
spreadsheet view to allow you to edit information very quickly and
provides many autoformatting tasks which do most of the work for you.

Changes: Acoustic IDs are now created using MusicIP's system, which is
much more accurate than the previous TRM system. Tracks on MusicBrainz are
now looked up using the new XMLWebService, using the new Acoustic IDs
and/or Metadata. More fields are now populated upon a successful
MusicBrainz match. You can now submit MusicBrainz IDs and Acoustic IDs
back to MusicBrainz. A toolbar was added for the main functions. A new
icon for Jaikoz was designed.

About: Java Serialization to XML (JSX) translates between Java and XML,
making it possible to search, test, profile, and audit your object data
with ordinary XML and text processing tools. Your data can be migrated to
new application versions, to C++, and to other applications by
transforming the XML. Unlike other Java XML serializers, JSX is accurate
for all objects.

Changes: Documentation was added for class evolution/object migration by
transforming the XML using XSLT.

[028] - libetc 0.3
by Luc Dufresne (http://freshmeat.net/users/lucd/)
Wed, Jan 31st 2007 14:34

System

About: libetc is an LD_PRELOAD-able shared library designed for
maintaining a home directory without dot-files. It intercepts file
operations, so if a program tries to open a dotfile in $HOME, it is
redirected to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME (as defined by freedesktop). You can then
store all your configuration files in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME instead of using
lots of dot-files in $HOME.

Changes: Bugfixes were made to support more applications. The code was
also cleaned up.

[032] - Logback 0.9
by Sebastien Pennec (http://freshmeat.net/users/sebastienpennec/)
Wed, Jan 31st 2007 08:04

Software Development :: Libraries
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
System :: Logging

About: Logback is intended as a successor to the popular log4j project,
and was designed by log4j's founder, Ceki Gulcu. The basic architecture is
sufficiently generic so as to apply under different circumstances. It is
divided into three modules. The Core module lays the groundwork for the
other two modules, whereas the Classic module can be assimilated to an
improved version of log4j. It natively implements the SLF4J API so that
you can readily switch back and forth between logback and other logging
systems, such as log4j or JDK14 Logging. The Access module integrates with
Servlet containers to provide HTTP access log functionality. You can easily
build your own modules on top of the Core module.

Changes: This version contains a new component, namely the
ContextSelector. This provides context separation and management when
logback is used by several web-apps running under the same server. A new
chapter was added to the logback manual to detail the use of the
ContextSelector, along with its associated components. The JMXConfigurator
has been improved. It now shows the context's Status objects, which lets
users check the internal state of logback. The logback manual's chapter 2,
about logback's architecture, has been updated with two sections: "Under
the hood" and "Performance".

by David Holroyd (http://freshmeat.net/users/wavy/)
Wed, Jan 31st 2007 07:48

Software Development :: Code Generators
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries

About: metaas provides Java applications with a "Document Object Model"
for ActionScript 3 code. Its primary function is generating code, but it
allows existing .as source files to be loaded, and simple modifications to
be made. The current implementation is still immature, and does not support
all AS3 syntax.

Changes: An ActionScriptProject can now have a classpath, so that you can
reference the .swc files that come with Flex2 with the auto-imports
feature. Incorrect interface definition code generation (and bad
implements-clauses in class definitions) were fixed. Regular-expression
literals are now accepted by the internal parser, and a number of other
bugs and missing bits of syntax support were dealt with.

Wed, Jan 31st 2007 08:09

Communications :: Email :: Filters
Security

About: MIMEDefang is a flexible MIME email scanner designed to do all
kinds of email processing, including anti-virus scanning, anti-spam
scanning, replacing parts of messages with URLs, adding boilerplate
disclaimers, and so on. It can alter or delete various parts of a MIME
message according to a Perl-based policy filter. It can also bounce
messages with unacceptable attachments and modify SMTP response codes on
the fly. It works with the Sendmail 8.11 and newer "Milter" API, which
makes it more flexible and efficient than procmail-based approaches.

Changes: This version includes a new graphical tool that lets you monitor
a cluster of MIMEDefang scanners. It contains fixes to the build scripts
that should eliminate build problems on Intel/AMD 64-bit architectures.
Finally, there are various other minor performance improvements and
bugfixes.

Wed, Jan 31st 2007 07:13

Software Development :: Libraries
System :: Networking :: Firewalls

About: The MiniUPnP project is a library and a daemon. The library is
aimed to enable applications to use the capabilities of a UPnP Internet
Gateway Device present on the network to forward ports. The daemon adds
the UPnP Internet Gateway Device functionality to a NAT gateway running
OpenBSD/NetBSD/FreeBSD with PF or Linux 2.4.x/2.6.x with netfilter. One of
its most interesting features is to enforce some permissions to allow or
deny redirections, bringing some security to UPnP.

Changes: In the daemon, some code cleanup was done, and robustness against
ill-formed SOAP requests was improved. In the client library, compatibility
was improved.

[036] - MoSSHe 1.4.0
by Volker Tanger (http://freshmeat.net/users/vtanger/)
Wed, Jan 31st 2007 14:41

System :: Networking :: Monitoring

About: MoSSHe (MOnitoring with SSH Environment) is a simple, lightweight
(both in size and system requirements) server monitoring package designed
for secure and in-depth monitoring of a number of typical Internet
systems. It was developed to keep the impact on network and performance
low, and to use a safe, encrypted connection for in-depth inspection of
the system checked. It is not possible to remotely run (more or less
arbitrary) commands via the monitoring system, nor is unsafe cleartext
SNMP messaging necessary (yet possible). A read-only Web interface makes
monitoring and status checks simple (and safe) for admins and helpdesk.
Checking scripts are included for remote services (DNS, HTTP, IMAP2,
IMAP3, POP3, samba, SMTP, and SNMP) and local systems (disk space, load,
CPU temperature, fan speed, free memory, print queue size and activity,
processes, RAID status, shells, log file events (logins, restarts, and
brute force attacks), and mail queue).

Changes: The name of mosshe checks has been changed (mosshe_ssh instead of
ssh). A MOSSHE_HTTP check has been added for unencrypted HTTP-based
checking. Logs/statechange_YEAR.log has been added for easier
uptime/downtime calculation.

actual data transfers between your server and end-users. Server-side
bandwidth test reports provide visibility to the consistency of bandwidth
delivery, key information for managing VoIP, Web application, and help
desk environments. Max pause, the longest pause recorded during the data
download, and round trip time are also reported. The professional version
adds a server-side repository which logs the speed test results, session
ID tracking, and a continuous testing option for further analysis.

Changes: A new RPM self-installer option for Linux simplifies the
installation process. The status colors in the Summary tab may now be
configured based on threshold values set in the myspeed.bin file.

Internet :: Log Analysis
System :: Networking :: Monitoring
System :: Systems Administration

About: pmacct is a small set of passive network monitoring tools to
measure, account, classify, aggregate, and export IPv4 and IPv6 traffic. A
pluggable and flexible architecture allows collected network data to be
stored into memory tables or SQL (MySQL, SQLite, PostgreSQL) databases and
exported through NetFlow or sFlow protocols to remote collectors. pmacct
supports fully customizable historical data breakdown, flow sampling,
filtering and tagging, recovery actions, and triggers. Libpcap, sFlow
v2/v4/v5 and NetFlow v1/v5/v7/v8/v9 are supported.

Changes: The 'aggregate_filter' directive now supports multiple (up to
128) pcap-style filters per-plugin. Turn-back time when restarting the
daemons has been significantly improved by creating sockets with the
SO_REUSEADDR option and disassociating them first thing on receiving a
SIGINT signal. A new threaded version of the pmacctd stream classification
engine is also being introduced. The new [ns]facctd_disable_checks
directives aim to disable health checks over incoming NetFlow/sFlow
streams (in cases of non-standard vendor's implementations). Bugfixes and

by Douglas Gilbert (http://freshmeat.net/users/dpgilbert/)
Wed, Jan 31st 2007 14:03

About: sg3_utils is a package of utilities for accessing devices that use
SCSI command sets. Most utilities issue a single command and display the
response, while some work at a slightly higher level. There are utilities
for fetching INQUIRY data and VPD, mode, and log pages. There is support
for modern SCSI transports such as SAS and FCP. The package is written for
Linux and has been ported to FreeBSD, Tru64, and Windows, and an earlier
version for Linux 2.2 series kernels called sg_utils is also available.

Changes: This release adds utilities to support SCSI READ BUFFER and WRITE
BUFFER commands. The latter can be used to upload firmware. It cleans up
the command line interface of older utilities and reworks man pages.
Support has been added for building with MinGW on Windows. The package now
builds cleanly under C++ as well as its native C. It has been synchronized
to SPC-4 revision 8.
