[011] - Elixir 0.5.2
by Gaetan de Menten (http://freshmeat.net/users/gedeon/)
Fri, Mar 28th 2008 12:42

Database :: Front-Ends
Software Development :: Libraries :: Python Modules

About: Elixir is a declarative layer on top of SQLAlchemy. It is a fairly
thin wrapper that provides the ability to define model objects following
the Active Record design pattern, and using a DSL syntax similar to that
of the Ruby on Rails ActiveRecord system. It does not intend to replace
SQLAlchemy's core features, but instead focuses on providing a simpler
syntax for defining model objects when you do not need the full
expressiveness of SQLAlchemy's manual mapper definitions.

Changes: This is a minor bugfix release (mostly restoring Python 2.3
compatibility).

[021] - Inverse SOGo Connector for Thunderbird 0.67
by Wolfgang Sourdeau (http://freshmeat.net/users/wsourdeau/)
Fri, Mar 28th 2008 12:33

Communications :: Email :: Email Clients (MUA)
Office/Business :: Groupware
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: Using the German translation would prevent the groupdav address
book dialog to appear properly. The synchronize button would no longer be
activated. Deleting cards in GroupDAV directories would delete them on the
server before the confirmation window was answered. The creation window for
remote DAV address books would not validate properly. Handling of personal
mailing lists has been added using a versit-style format named "VLIST".
Dragging and dropping a card from a GroupDAV directory would not delete
the card on the server.

[022] - JayBird 2.1.3
by mariuz (http://freshmeat.net/users/mariuz/)
Fri, Mar 28th 2008 07:18

Database :: API
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries

About: JayBird is JCA/JDBC driver suite for connecting to Firebird
database servers. It was based on Borland's InterClient JDBC driver and
uses the new JCA standard, which specifies an architecture in which an
application server can cooperate with a driver so that the application
server manages transactions, security, and resource pooling, and the
driver supplies only the connection functionality. It also supports JDBC.

Changes: This release fixes only one bug, related to the situation in
which developers use the DatabaseMetaData class with identifiers/patterns
with a case different to the one in the database. The solution is to try
to execute the query with the original case, and when nothing is found,
another query with uppercased identifiers is executed. In the worst case,
this will cause two queries to be executed against the database, which can
lead to performance loss.

"tokens", so that invitations can be issued to participants. It also has
the capacity to set conditions on whether questions will display
(branching), numerous question types, and a basic statistics function.

Changes: This release adds re-adds the missing privacy message, improves
accessibility for blind people, integrates table-cell-to-Radio-button
mapping, updates the Dutch, French, Italian, and Bosnian translations, and
adds an Indonesian translation. It fixes apostrophe slashes in the HTML
Editor, missing HTTP headers for an admin login page, problems with group
ordering, responses not being shown for expired surveys in the survey
list, and several permission issues/limitations.

interactive use, but with the primary focus on scripting. It is intended
to be portable to most *nix-like operating systems as long as they're not
too obscure. mksh incorporates improvements from OpenBSD and Debian, as
well as bugfixes and enhancements developed for the MirOS, FreeWRT, and
MidnightBSD projects. The emacs command line editing mode is UTF-8
capable, and Byte Order Marks are ignored in scripts. The shell supports
large files, as well as all pdksh and some csh, AT&T ksh, and GNU bash
features, is compatible with the Bourne shell and POSIX (within limits),
has no limit on array sizes, and incorporates some other useful builtins
and features. While being already fast and small (without losing
functionality), flags to make it even smaller can be given at compile
time. An interactive shell reads "~/.mkshrc" on startup.

Changes: This release features portability fixes, as mksh now runs
properly on DEC/Compaq/HP OSF/1 V4.0F and V5.1 (Tru64), BSDi BSD/OS 3.1,
and SGI IRIX 6.5, with gcc and the respective system compilers. The manual
page looks much better in GNU groff (-Tascii is now equivalent to AT&T
nroff, -Tutf8 is able to copy and paste, and -Tps is typographically
nicer). Scripts can now be dæmonised. The conf/build infrastructure has
been improved and made more portable.

Fri, Mar 28th 2008 02:43

System :: Monitoring
System :: Networking :: Monitoring
System :: Systems Administration

About: NetXMS is a monitoring system with a modular architecture. It can
be used for monitoring an entire IT infrastructure, starting with
SNMP-capable hardware (like switches and routers) and ending with
applications on servers. The system has a three-tier architecture; the
information is collected by monitoring agents (either its own agents or
SNMP agents) and delivered to the monitoring server for processing and
storing, where it can be accessed by using the management console. It
features centralized configuration and centralized agent upgrades.

Changes: Advanced event processing using situations was implemented. Event
storm detection was added. The possibility to specify multiple SNMP
community strings was added. Node names can be synchronized with DNS. The
new action "stop processing" was added to event processing policy. Most
known bugs were closed.

[032] - ns4 4.0(9)
by Chris Mason (http://freshmeat.net/users/chrimaso/)
Fri, Mar 28th 2008 04:03

Utilities

About: ns4 is a configuration management tool which allows the automated
backup of just about anything, but it was designed for routers and
switches. If you are able to log into it through a CLI, you can back it
up. Commands are defined within a configuration file, and when they are
executed, the output is sent to a series of FTP servers for archiving. As
well as archiving configurations, it allows scripts to be run on nodes;
this allows configurations to be applied en masse and allows conditional
logic so different bits of scripts are run on different nodes.

Changes: A bug was fixed where you had to acknowledge an ssh key manually
when using the null proxy before you could connect to the node through
ns4. This stopped the null proxy option from working.

[033] - Nuface 2.0
by Haypo (http://freshmeat.net/users/haypo/)
Fri, Mar 28th 2008 06:27

Security
System :: Networking :: Firewalls

About: Nuface is a Web-based administration tool that generates Edenwall,
NuFW, or simple Netfilter firewall rules. It features a high level
abstraction on the security policy set by the administrator, and works
internally on an XML data scheme. Its philosophy is to let you agglomerate
subjects, resources, or protocols into meta-objects, and use those meta
objects to generate ACLs, which are then interpreted as netfilter rules by
Nupyf, the internal XML parser. This tool may easily be extended to support
firewall implementations other than Netfilter.

Changes: This release adds better ergonomy (especially through simplified
forms), creation of contextual help, and navigation history. The local
rules (INPUT and OUTPUT) now have a dedicated form. For each ACL, it's
possible to log (with ulogd or NuFW) or not log the connections with a
personalized log message, usable directly with Nulog or any log analyzer.
The installation is also easier, thanks to the creation of a network
autoconfiguration tool (interfaces, networks, and routes).

Database :: API
Database :: Database Engines/Servers

About: OpenLink Virtuoso is a scalable, high-performance SQL-200n
compliant object-relational database engine. It provide sophisticated
database management for SQL, XML, and RDF. All interaction with Virtuoso

APIs, and data formats such as: ODBC, JDBC, OLE-DB, ADO.NET, XMLA, SQL,
SPARQL, XQuery, SOAP, HTTP, WebDAV, SyncML, Atom (Publishing and
Syndication), RSS, RDF, and more.

Changes: This release has a newly optimized bitmap-intersection join,
typically twice as efficient as an equivalent nested loop join. There are
improvements to locking, especially for concurrency of transactions with
large shared lock sets, as is the case in the TPC-H queries. As part of
the completion of the Business Intelligence extensions to SPARQL
(SPARQL-BI), a sampling of TPC-H queries translated into SPARQL has been
released, and has been integrated into the standard demonstration
database.

[045] - rsyslog 3.12.5 (Development)
by Rainer Gerhards (http://freshmeat.net/users/rgerhards/)
Fri, Mar 28th 2008 12:28

System :: Logging

About: Rsyslog is an enhanced multi-threaded syslogd. Among other
features, it offers support for on-demand disk buffering, reliable syslog
over TCP, writing to databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and many more),

configuration file syntax.

Changes: This is mostly a bugfix and cleanup release. Some changed
defaults make it easier to use advanced features. For example,
high-precision timestamps are now enabled by default when writing log
files. "Last message repeated n times" processing, a typical trouble spot,
is turned off by default. The documentation has been improved and the
v2-backward compatibility layer has been completed. This version is a
candidate to become the next stable release.

System
System :: Hardware

About: Spindown is a daemon to spin down idle disks and thus save energy
and give the disks a longer lifetime. It also works with USB disks and
hot-swappable disks because it uses the device ID to identify the disk
instead of the device name (such as hda or sdb). This means that it
doesn't matter if the disk is swapped while the daemon is running.

Changes: The paths for the daemon can now be set from the command line,
and there are some minor fixes and code cleanups.
