Adaptive Technologies
Software Development
Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
About: The Azuki Framework is a Java application framework designed to
resolve various problems in the software development lifecycle. These
goals are achieved by splitting the software conception into two main
stages: creation of independent components and definition of component
dependencies (weaving). The latter is performed with a graphical tool
named "the weaver". By representing component interactions using different
perspectives, the weaver provides a straightforward way to analyze an
application's architecture, allowing deep and easy customization of its
behavior.
Changes: This release adds a new module for Apache CXF.

by Grrrr (http://freshmeat.net/users/Grrrr/)
Tue, Oct 9th 2007 10:08
About: The DBIx::Perlish module provides the ability to work with
databases supported by the DBI module using Perl's own syntax for the four
most common operations: SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE, and INSERT. By using
DBIx::Perlish, you can write most of your database queries using a
domain-specific language with Perl syntax. However, the module is not
intended to replace all use of SQL in your program. The DBIx::Perlish
module quite intentionally neither implements nor cares about database
administration tasks like schema design and management.

[031] - Qtractor 0.0.6.728
by Rui Nuno Capela (http://freshmeat.net/users/rncbc/)
Tue, Oct 9th 2007 11:07
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio
About: Qtractor is an Audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application. The
initial target platform is Linux, using the infrastructure of the Jack
Audio Connection Kit (JACK) for audio and the Advanced Linux Sound
Architecture (ALSA) for MIDI. It is meant to be a fairly-featured Linux
desktop audio workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal home
studio.
Changes: Drifting of audio and MIDI while recording was hopefully
corrected. MIDI editing has been improved, including step-moving with
keyboard arrow keys, auto-extendable clips, most edits are now effective
immediately on playback, and new eye-candy options like note, velocity
coloring, and duration. New snap divisors, supporting triplets. A new MIDI
metronome with channel, bar/beat accent note, and duration parameters.
Better monitoring meters update precision. Increased responsiveness of the
MP3 audio clip editing. An auto-sized track properties dialog. Summary
report and proper qmake location on configure.

[041] - Tagsistant 0.0.20071009
by Tx0 (http://freshmeat.net/users/tx0/)
Tue, Oct 9th 2007 09:27
Desktop Environment :: File Managers
Information Management :: Metadata/Semantic Models
System :: Filesystems
About: Tagsistant is a semantic filesystem for Linux and BSD kernels. It
uses directories as tags and allows file tagging by simply putting files
inside desired tag directories. The path you are walking by is your query,
e.g. tagsistant/tag1/AND/tag2/OR/tag3/AND/tag2/. Being a low level
interface, a filesystem can be instantly used by shell users, file
managers, or CGI. A plug-in architecture is under development to add
autotagging functionality for common files like .mp3, .ogg, .jpeg, .html,
and .xml. A transparent ontology engine is also planned to allow users
create a relationship schema between directories by moving one inside the
other.
Changes: A bug in tagsistant_rename was fixed. Both directories and files
can now be renamed properly.
