Office/Business :: Scheduling

About: Inverse SOGo Connector for Thunderbird is an extension which
transforms Thunderbird into a full DAV client for groupware servers such
as SOGo, OpenGroupware.org, and Citadel. It does this by adding support
for remote DAV address books and by adding features to be used along with
the Lightning calendar extension. It is a merge of the Lightning Enhancer
and the GroupDAV Addressbook Connector.

Changes: The addressbooks are now automatically synchronized at startup.
The internal transactions were improved to be more asynchronous and
reentrant. The autocompletion of adresses was improved by selecting unique
entries and by taking all the available emails into account when building
the list.

Communications :: Telephony
Internet
System :: Diagnostics

About: MySpeed is a Java applet that measures connection speeds and
quality by timing actual data transfers between your server and end-users.
Connection tests are performed via HTTP or socket-to-socket modes. The
consistency of data transfer speeds is reported, a key measure of
connection quality. Detailed graphs of all data transferred during a speed
test are produced. VoIP editions test jitter and packet loss, reporting
VoIP quality and load capacity. A server-side database logs all speed test
results. The NOC and Support editions provide remote agent technologies to
identify remote connectivity problems.

Changes: The RA (remote agent) API now supports two additional variables:
the public IP address of the machine running the RA, and the friendly name
(user-given) for the RA. RAs can be set to run in quiet mode (no popups are
displayed). This can be set globally or for every subsequent RTA instance.

issues observed in rendering dynamic data in Apache Harmony and Java SE 6
runtimes.

CompactLogix, and MicroLogix PLCs, the Modicon Quantum PLC, the Wago
750-842 PLC, and the Siemens Step 7 300- and 400-series CPUs. It also
supports the Siemens Step 5 AS511 protocol either serially or via Ethernet
using the INAT Echolink.

Changes: This release adds support for Siemens Step 7 400-series CPUs.
Also included are bugfixes for addressing timers and counters in the

Communications :: Email :: Post-Office :: POP3
Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes

About: POP 3 client is a PHP class that allows you to access mail boxes
using the POP3 protocol. It provides a stream wrapper class for retrieving
messages like files using the PHP fopen function, establishes secure
connections using TLS, accesses servers using normal and APOP login
methods, supports authentication mechanisms such as PLAIN, LOGIN,
CRAM-MD5, NTLM (Windows or Linux/Unix via Samba) via the PHP SASL library,
and supports listing of message sizes, retrieval of a message at once,
separating the headers from the body, retrieving a message in small chunks
to not exceed the available memory, and deleting messages.

Changes: This release introduces the possibility to open and read messages
in a mailbox with PHP file access functions using URLs like
pop3://connection/message, where "connection" is the name of an already
established connection to the POP3 server. A bug was fixed that was
preventing the closing of connections to the server when an opened message
was not fully retrieved.

Scientific/Engineering :: Astronomy
Software Development :: Libraries :: Python Modules

About: PyEphem provides scientific-grade astronomical computations for the
Python programming language. Given an arbitrary date and location on Earth,
it can compute the positions of the sun, moon, and planets as well as any
asteroids, comets, or earth satellites whose orbital elements the user can

separation between two objects in the sky, determining the constellation
in which an object lies, and finding the times at which an object rises,
transits, and sets on a particular day.

Changes: The user can now easily convert positions in the sky between
equatorial, ecliptic, and galactic coordinates. Also, functions now exist
to search for all four equinoxes and solstices of the year. Finally,
constants have been added with which the popular epochs B1900, B1950, and
J2000 can now be easily referenced by name.

  Wed, Jan 9th 2008 13:46

Desktop Environment :: Gnome
Desktop Environment :: Tools

About: The Launcher is an innovative GNOME panel applet or stand-alone
application launcher automatically adapting to your habits. The ultimate
goal is to make it possible to run any application with as few clicks as
possible. This means tracking your favorite applications, and not forcing
you to mark or organize them by hand. Preferences change with time, and
The Launcher responds to that automatically. It delivers a simple, clean,
and usable interface with advanced features like 'search as you type' and
'smart search', and requires zero configuration effort. It should be
especially handy on touch screens and in keyboard-only scenarios.

Changes: This is the first GNOME panel applet release. New options: 'Icon'
and 'Label' in the '[Panel]' section to set the applet icon and text. Local
GNOME menu support. Smart search (e.g. 'ooo' will find 'OpenOffice.org').
Significant performance improvements. Small interface improvements.
Several bugs have been fixed in hotkeys processing.

Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Conversion
Multimedia :: Video :: Conversion

About: transcode is a text console video-stream processing tool. It
supports elementary video and audio frame transformations. Some example
modules are included to enable import of MPEG-1/2, Digital Video, and
other formats. It also includes export modules for writing to AVI files
with DivX, OpenDivX, XviD, Digital Video or other codecs. Direct DVD
transcoding is also supported. A set of tools is available to extract and
decode the sources into raw video/audio streams for import and to enable
post-processing of AVI files.

Changes: aclib was made more silent. tcxpm2rgb was speeded up. The ffmpeg
export module RGB was fixed. libmpeg3 detection was improved using
libmpeg3. NUV is supposed to work only on x86, so this constraint is
enforced in configure. A latent segfault in export_dv and export_dvraw was
fixed. export_ffmpeg now properly encodes in h264 again using recent
libavcodecs. export_ffmpeg no longer improperly mangles output filename if
it is "/dev/null". avilib indexes initialization was fixed, which solves
some segfaults when closing. fame initialization was fixed. V4 ioctls are
used in OSS import modules.

  by Charles B. Cosse (http://freshmeat.net/users/asymptopia/)
  Wed, Jan 9th 2008 05:13

Games/Entertainment :: Puzzle Games
Games/Entertainment :: Real Time Strategy
Games/Entertainment :: Turn Based Strategy

About: TuxWordSmith is similar to the classic word game "Scrabble", but
with Unicode support for multiple languages and character sets. The game
is currently distributed with 42 dictionary resources for playing
Language[i]-Language[j] "Scrabble". For example, if configured to use the
French-German dictionary, then the distribution of available tiles will be
computed based on frequency of occurrence of each character of Language[i]
(French), and, for each submission, the corresponding definition will be
given in Language[j] (German).

Changes: Modifications were made to the installation script for Mac users.
Modifications were made to the font loading procedure to accomodate
rendering differences among operating systems. Several configuration
variables are now hidden to simplify the admin control panel.
