[014] - GSTorrent 0004
  by Kumosan (http://freshmeat.net/users/kumosan/)
  Sat, Aug 18th 2007 03:39

Communications :: File Sharing

About: GSTorrent is a Bittorrent client/server system. A daemon program
handles all the file transfers as a Bittorrent client. The GSTorrent
daemon also acts as a server for an external GUI client. The objective is
to have a relatively small Bittorrent client, which runs on a small
computer without a graphical interface and to control this server from a
different machine. An example of this type of architecture is the mldonkey
client/server system for the edonkey protocol.

Changes: The client was almost totally redesigned. It now shows the server
it is connected to and can display errors received from the server. In the
server config screen it is possible to disconnect from the current server
and reconnect to a different one. Several servers can be managed in a
list. The torrent table has been enhanced to display the upload/download
ratio.

About: GWintree is a GEDCOM-based genealogy program. It provides
facilities to view, edit, and merge data, and to produce charts, family
trees, and reports in a range of formats, including HTML. Charts can show

chart. Automatic matching and merging of data between files is supported.

Changes: This release adds new options for HTML charts and reports. All
known bugs were fixed.

System :: Systems Administration

About: The HA-Tools provide some programs to improve shell scripting,
especially in a High Availability environment. The halockrun program
provides a simple and reliable way to implement locking in shell scripts
(a typical usage for halockrun is to prevent cronjobs to run
simultanously), and the hatimerun program provides a time-out mechanism.

Changes: This release features some extensions and clarifications about
the exit codes returned by halockrun and hatimerun.

Communications
Internet :: WWW/HTTP
System :: Networking :: Firewalls

About: HTTPTunnel is a simple client/server application for creating an
HTTP tunnel between two machines, optionally via a Web proxy. This tunnel
can then be used to wrap arbitrary TCP socket traffic in HTTP, thus
allowing communications even through a restrictive firewall that only
allows outgoing HTTP connections.

Changes: This release includes some major bugfixes and improvements in the
tunneling error detection and retransmission code. It also introduces
support for building and running under Cygwin.

[018] - Klavaro 1.0.4
  by Felipe Castro (http://freshmeat.net/users/felipo/)
  Sat, Aug 18th 2007 02:14

Education :: Computer Aided Instruction (CAI)

About: Klavaro is a touch typing tutor that is very flexible and supports
customizable keyboard layouts. Users can edit and save new or unknown
keyboard layouts, as the basic course provided by the program was designed
to not depend on specific layouts.

Changes: The Spanish translation was completed. An Alphagrip layout file
was included, allowing you to practice basic lessons with that kind of
input device. A problem preventing progress plots due to spaces in
filenames of custom lessons was fixed. The text foreground in the tutor
window is now forced to black (on a white background), allowing dark
themes to be used for the interface.

System :: Archiving :: Mirroring

About: Many project are mirrored worldwide. Mirmon helps in monitoring
these mirrors. In a concise graphic format, mirmon shows each site's
history of the last two weeks, making it easy to spot stale or dead
mirrors. Mirmon quietly probes a subset of the sites in a given list,
writes the results in the 'state' file, and generates a Web page with the
results.

Changes: Some averages were added to the reports that mirmon generates.

Education :: Computer Aided Instruction (CAI)
Office/Business
Text Processing

About: OpenCards is a flash card learning extension for OpenOffice
Impress. The basic idea of OpenCards is to use slide titles as flash card
fronts and the slide contents as their backs.

Changes: Card-side reversing was implemented. A configurable Leitner
system is used. The learning algorithms were improved. Auto-update (using
the OpenOffice extension manager) was enabled. Presentation specific
persistent learn-settings were added. Keyboard mappings were added for
learn-dialog. Global settings may be managed. Localizations were added for
English, German, and French. A bug-report dialog is shown in case of
exceptions. The Java6 dependencies were removed. This is fully compatible

  Sat, Aug 18th 2007 11:41

Adaptive Technologies
Scientific/Engineering :: Artificial Intelligence

About: Soothsayer is an intelligent predictive text entry platform.
Soothsayer exploits redundant information embedded in natural languages to
generate predictions. Soothsayer's modular and pluggable architecture
allows its language model to be extended and customized to utilize
statistical, syntactic, and semantic information sources.

Changes: The new generalized smoothed n-gram statistical predictive plugin
is included, which supports arbitrary order n-grams. Used in combination
with the text2ngram tool, statistical predictions can be generated by
n-gram language models of arbitrary cardinality. It uses an improved
heuristic to generate initial completion candidates, by using highest
order n-gram statistics. This release includes notable bugfixes and
improvements to soothsayer simulator. A bug in the simulator caused the
reported Key Stroke Reduction rate to be much lower than the actual KSR
achieved by soothsayer.

  Sat, Aug 18th 2007 03:53

Database
Software Development :: Code Generators

About: SPWrapper analyzes a database's system tables, finds parameter
names and types, and writes the Java code necessary for calling stored
procedures. A similar function is available to make it easy to execute SQL
statements, passing input parameters and retrieving the results. Four
databases are supported: Oracle, MySQL, sqlserver, and PostgreSQL. A
Netbeans plugin is also available (for stored procedures only).

Changes: This release extends the number of databases supported. It's now
possible to create Java wrapper classes for Oracle, MySQL, sqlserver, and
PostgreSQL. The Java wrappers allow users to call the stored procedures by
calling a simple Java function. By downloading the Netbeans plugin, is also
possible to browse the existing stored procedures and produce wrappers for
them. The SqlJaTor Ant task allows the creation of Java classes to execute
generic SQL statements.

[032] - STUBS and Franki/Earlgrey Linux 0.6.11/0.9.4 (STUBS
Configurations)
  by William Towle (http://freshmeat.net/users/etwills/)
  Sat, Aug 18th 2007 11:55

System :: Operating System
System :: Operating System :: Linux Distributions
System :: Operating System :: Linux Distributions :: CD-Based

About: The STUBS Toolchain and Utility Build Suite is a set of scripts
designed to build one or more software packages by means of a pre-written
set of configuration files. Each configuration file encapsulates the
necessary build and install commands for a given package, and URLs are
included so source and patches can be downloaded as necessary. STUBS is
designed to both bootstrap and work within the Franki/Earlgrey Linux
environment (an extensible busybox and uClibc-based Linux boot floppy
produced by one of several example STUBS configurations).

Changes: This Configurations release sanitizes the Sencha, Bancha, and
Lung Ching cross-compiling toolchains, restoring a previous busybox
version for compatibility reasons. Some URLs are also updated and the
Franki extensions now included newer ed, lynx, ncdu, and rsyslog versions.
