[001] - AgileWiki 11.5b (Element Model)
by Bill la Forge (http://freshmeat.net/users/laforge49/)
Sun, Dec 7th 2008 11:01
Database
Documentation
Information Management
About: AgileWiki is an SDK for assembling software systems which are
fluid, easily configured and can be reorganized on-the-fly to meet ever
changing requirements. It includes a COW-based database, the Rolonics
programming paradigm, and semantic inferencing.
Changes: ArkDbReference was not applying the RolonInitialized event to the
sub-ark when it was created. This has been fixed. The addKeyword command
now also applies to sub-arks. Online documents now cover theory of
operations.

[002] - Backtrace Library 1.0.3
by Tim Gurney (http://freshmeat.net/users/offswn/)
Sun, Dec 7th 2008 16:28
Software Development :: Libraries
About: Backtrace is a C library that replicates the bt functionality from
gdb. This can be used on code as it is developed and on live code, to allow
function stack tracing without having to run under gdb. This library will
display the file name, function name, and line number in the backtrace, and
will work even with a stripped binary.
Changes: Code cleanup and changes bought on by changes to the logfile
library.

[004] - Bitvector Library 1.0.2
by Tim Gurney (http://freshmeat.net/users/offswn/)
Sun, Dec 7th 2008 16:39
Software Development :: Libraries
About: Bitvector is a C library that allows you to use strings rather than
ints for internal flags. On many platforms, ints are limited to 32 bits and
are thus limited to 32 flags available for a given flag variable. Bitvector
uses a resizing char array for flags, allowing much greater flexibility for
flag management.
Changes: Code cleanup and changes bought on by changes to the logfile
library.

[006] - Cain 0.8 (Stable)
by Sean Mauch (http://freshmeat.net/users/seanmauch/)
Sun, Dec 7th 2008 10:15
Scientific/Engineering :: Chemistry
Scientific/Engineering :: Physics
About: Cain performs stochastic and deterministic simulations of chemical
reactions. It can spawn multiple simulation processes to utilize multi-core
computers. It stores models, simulation parameters, and simulation results
(populations and reaction counts) in an XML format. In addition, SBML
models can be imported and exported. The models and simulation parameters
can be read from input files or edited within the program. Solvers are
implemented as command line executables, which makes it easy to launch
batch jobs and simplifies the process of adding new solvers. Solvers
include Gillespie's direct method, Gillespie's first reaction method,
Gibson and Bruck's next reaction method, Tau-leaping, and Hybrid
direct/tau-leaping.
Changes: This release fixes some errors and adds support for Python 2.4.
There is a new solver that generates histogram output.

[008] - Deliantra MORPG Client 2.0
by Marc A. Lehmann (http://freshmeat.net/users/pcg1/)
Sun, Dec 7th 2008 09:48
Games/Entertainment
Games/Entertainment :: Arcade
Games/Entertainment :: Multi-User Dungeons (MUD)
About: Deliantra is a client for Deliantra game servers. It offers an
intuitive user interface for exploring the vast game world, a persistent
minimap, powerful macros and keymaps, dialog-based NPC interaction, and
easy configuration for the skill, spell, and item system. It is based on
Perl, SDL, and OpenGL for high performance on modern systems, and works on
both Unix and Windows. Ports to other platforms should be very easy and are
underway.
Changes: The Log window can't be closed anymore by Alt+x. Alt+x or other
message window operations won't crash the client anymore directly after
startup. The invisible and cached parts of the map are darkened even more,
so that invisible or cached parts can be distinguished from dark parts
better.

Sun, Dec 7th 2008 11:12
Scientific/Engineering
About: feresPost is a Ruby extension that provides the definition of
classes and modules devoted to the development of automated post-processing
for Nastran or Samcef finite element results. The library allows easy
manipulation of finite element models, groups, and results. Efficient
post-processing is possible because the time-consuming operations are
written in C/C++.

Sun, Dec 7th 2008 19:33
System :: Networking
System :: Systems Administration
About: GNU Radius is a radius server and an accompanying set of monitoring
utilities. It features MySQL and PostgreSQL interfaces for authentication
and/or logging (the ODBC interface allows you to use almost any existing
DBMS for that purpose), the ability to rewrite RADIUS requests from various
NASs to normalize them to a more understandable format, as well as the
ability to completely customize the behavior of radius authentication and
accounting based on NAS and user attributes.
Changes: New attributes: GNU-Server-Address (holds the IP address of the
RADIUS server that received the request) and GNU-Server-Port (holds the UDP
port number of the RADIUS server that received the request). The automake
function AM_GNU_RADIUS is provided for checking whether GNU Radius is
installed from configure.ac scripts. Guile support requires Guile version
1.8 or later. NAS-IP-Address is passed to mlc_stop_query.

advanced traffic regulation with surge protection, automatic failover,
run-time regex-based header control, Web-based reporting, advanced logging
to help trouble-shooting buggy applications and/or networks, and a few
other features. Its own event-driven state machine achieves 20,000 hits per
second and surpasses GigaEthernet on modern hardware, even with tens of
thousands of simultaneous connections.
Changes: Since 1.3.15.4, problems were fixed with hot-restart where the
old process would not always stop, cookie capture was fixed (as it was
broken since the frontend/backend split), critical startup errors are now
reported on the console, and a failing server will no longer consume
pending requests from the global queue. This last problem was the cause of
many 503 errors for some people.

not print the question). The engine no longer renames XML subtypes files
(such as XSD schemas).

management, and the ability to create svn repositories. It uses
htpasswd/svn authz for authentication, so it can use the same login

[032] - Task Coach 0.71.4
by Frank Niessink (http://freshmeat.net/users/fniessink/)
Sun, Dec 7th 2008 09:38
Office/Business :: Scheduling
About: Task Coach is a simple todo manager to manage personal tasks and
todo lists. It grew out of a frustration that well-known task managers,
such as those provided with Outlook or Lotus Notes, do not provide
facilities for composite tasks. Often, tasks and other things to do consist
of several activities. Task Coach is designed to deal with composite tasks.
Changes: This is a bugfix release. Opening an old .tsk file with missing
email attachments would crash Task Coach. When merging from the same file
multiple times, existing items would be duplicated instead of merged.
