[001] - AirSAM 0.6
by Sam Freiberg (http://freshmeat.net/users/sfreiberg/)
Mon, Jan 12th 2009 05:54
Security
Security :: Forensics
System :: Logging
About: AirSAM is a desktop GUI that compliments the Web based Snort Alert
Monitor. AirSAM gives up to date insight into who might be attacking your
network. The ultimate goal is to give audio/visual cues right at the time
of the attack. AirSAM is an Adobe Air application and should run on Mac OS,
Linux, and Windows.
Changes: Visual Notifications now work on Windows. There are visual
updates. Audio alerts have been added. Settings are now preserved between
application restarts.

[002] - Asymptote 1.58
by John Bowman (http://freshmeat.net/users/jcbowman/)
Mon, Jan 12th 2009 11:28
Education
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Editors :: Vector-Based
Scientific/Engineering
About: Asymptote is a powerful descriptive vector graphics language for
technical drawing, inspired by MetaPost but with an improved C++-like
syntax. It provides for figures the same high-quality level of typesetting
that LaTeX does for scientific text. Asymptote is a programming language as
opposed to just a graphics program. It can exploit the best features of
script (command-driven) and graphical user interface (GUI) methods.
High-level graphics commands are implemented in the language itself,
allowing them to be easily tailored to specific applications.
Changes: Two-dimensional arrowheads are now drawn automatically for 2D
projections. ArcArrow3 routines were added. Standard pen arithmetic is now
used in all colorspaces, so that interp(pen,pen,real) and Gradient(pen[] p)
now work as expected. A Wheel palette was added. A silhouette routine for
solids of revolution was added. Problems with 3D axis label alignments were
fixed. Interactive mode is now exited on EOF, unless exitonEOF=false.
Support for open function signatures was added. A conflict between
asymptote.sty and the breqn package was fixed. A problem with xasy under
MSDOS was fixed.

Mon, Jan 12th 2009 07:50
Internet :: WWW/HTTP
About: Axel tries to accelerate downloads by using multiple connections
(possibly to multiple servers) for one download. Because of its size, it
might be very useful on bootdisks or other small systems as a wget
replacement.
Changes: Multiple bugs were fixed in large file support. A new Chinese
translation and Chinese manpage were added.

[005] - Backtrace Library 1.2.0
by Wolf (http://freshmeat.net/users/offswn/)
Mon, Jan 12th 2009 05:46
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: This release brings forward a new site, new documentation
including complete man pages, and some general tidying up and cleaning of
the code.

Mon, Jan 12th 2009 18:58
System :: Archiving :: Backup
About: Bacula is a set of programs that allow you to manage the backup,
recovery, and verification of computer data across a network of different
computers. It is based on a client/server architecture and is efficient and
relatively easy to use, while offering many advanced storage management
features that make it easy to find and recover lost or damaged files.
Changes: This release prevents inappropriate Volume purging. It fixes
restore problems with accents in the path and two migration issues. It also
corrects a storage daemon hang, problems when using runscript with Unicode
paths under Win32, and an issue with job name duplication if more than 60
jobs were created in a minute. It no longer migrates failed jobs.

[008] - Bitvector Library 1.2.0
by Wolf (http://freshmeat.net/users/offswn/)
Mon, Jan 12th 2009 05:47
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: This release brings together a new site, clean code, and complete
documentation and man pages.

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 improves support for some Linux distributions. One

[011] - Config::Model::CursesUI 1.102
by Dominique Dumont (http://freshmeat.net/users/ddumont/)
Mon, Jan 12th 2009 14:52
System :: Installation/Setup
About: Config::Model::CursesUI provides a curses user interface for all
configuration descriptions created for config-model. This project is based
on the Curses::UI Perl module.

[012] - Config::Model::Itself 1.208
by Dominique Dumont (http://freshmeat.net/users/ddumont/)
Mon, Jan 12th 2009 14:51
Software Development
System :: Systems Administration
About: Config::Model::Itself provides a configuration model for
Config::Model. In other words, the structure of a model specification is
described in Config::Model::Itself so you can use the same user interface
to edit configuration data (for instance Xorg configuration data from
xorg.conf) and Xorg model (if you need to add new parameters in Xorg
model). You can also create your own configuration model to get a
configuration tool for your own application.
Changes: The allow_empty parameter was added. This way, a model designer
can specify whether configuration can be created from scratch or not. In
some cases (e.g. OpenSSH), creating a configuration from scratch should not
be allowed because directories and files may require specific permissions.
Minor corrections related to Augeas integration were made.

[022] - Enhanced TightVNC Viewer 1.0.22
by Karl Runge (http://freshmeat.net/users/runge/)
Mon, Jan 12th 2009 22:22
Desktop Environment :: Tools
About: The Enhanced TightVNC Viewer package is part of the x11vnc VNC
server project. It provides a native VNC viewer that takes advantage of new
features in x11vnc, e.g. cursor alpha blending and automatic SSL
tunnelling. Some features apply to any VNC server, e.g. automatic SSH
tunnelling. Another goal is to provide a package that conveniently bundles
everything needed for the user to have the enhanced viewer running quickly.
This includes pre-built binaries of the viewer and utility programs for
Windows and many Unix variants, and a GUI to configure and launch the
viewer. The short name for this project is "ssvnc", for SSL/SSH VNC viewer.
Changes: SSVNC's SSL encryption is extended to support the VeNCrypt and
TLS security type extensions to VNC for both forward and reverse
connections. Anonymous Diffie-Hellman encryption is now available for all
SSL/TLS modes. SSL Certificate Revocation Lists are supported. CUPS print
tunneling is greatly improved, and the default settings should work for
most setups. The Windows helper programs are updated to their most recent
versions. On Unix, stunnel is updated to the latest version.

Mon, Jan 12th 2009 18:57
System :: Hardware
System :: Networking
System :: Networking :: Firewalls
About: Gargoyle is an interface for small, widely available routers such
as the Linksys WRT54G series and the La Fonera. It provides functionality
above and beyond what the default software provides including sophisticated
dynamic DNS, quality of service, and bandwidth monitoring tools. The
primary goal is to provide a polished interface for these advanced tools
that is at least as easy to configure as any existing firmware. This
project is based on top of OpenWrt, but unlike other Web interfaces for
OpenWrt it places a strong focus an usability and is meant for average
users, not just power users.
Changes: This is the first release of Gargoyle based on Openwrt Kamikaze
8.09 instead of the older Kamikaze 7.09. This update fixes a major issue
with PPPoE. Further, the default Atheros firmware now works for both the
original La Fonera and the newer Fon+ models; separate firmware is no
longer required.

[036] - JCR 0.6.6
by John Dickson (http://freshmeat.net/users/captsens/)
Mon, Jan 12th 2009 14:48
Software Development :: Quality Assurance
About: JCR is a Web application for performing and managing formal code
reviews. Although it has some special logic for reviewing Java projects, it
can be used for reviews of any type of source code. JCR manages all stages
of the review process (initial project setup, individual review, joint
review meeting, post-review tidy-up), but it's mainly there to show diff
views of files that have changed and to allow comments to be made on any
line of any file marked for review.
Changes: This version uses AJAX to periodically update the file review
page and to toggle the display of project and file notes without having to
refresh the page. The file review page now shows file paths before
filenames, but this can be toggled. Caching of review files has been made
faster, and a number of small bugs have been fixed and minor improvements
were made.

[069] - trading-shim 090109
by R P Herrold (http://freshmeat.net/users/rpherrold/)
Mon, Jan 12th 2009 05:48
Database :: API
Office/Business :: Financial :: Investment
About: The trading shim is a command line interpreter with a DBMS backend
to the socket-based 'binary format' API of the Interactive Brokers' Trader
Workstation. It uses mnemonic ASCII text commands to permit downstream
clients to easily access several worldwide securities markets and exchanges
(stocks, options, futures, bonds, and Forex) for "tick" data and history
(intraday and EoD). It also allows clients to initiate and supervise trades
of securities, manage accounts, and more.
Changes: This release extends the language for specifying a contract
expression to a more natural form ('select tick ibc: 266093SMART 1;') and
continues factoring away the need for LocalSet. It makes minor changes in
the database to reflect churn in currency names internationally, and
housekeeping related to changes in the Contract table on a column name. The
developmental platform move to Debian 'lenny' is complete.

About: Xataface is a flexible and shapable skin that sits on top of MySQL,
making it accessible to every-day users. It automatically generates the
appropriate forms, lists, and menus for a user to interact with the
database without having to know any SQL. It is a full-featured Web
application framework, and gives developers the flexibility to customize
the features and behavior of their application via configuration files
(using the simple INI-file syntax), templates, and plug-ins. A generic
application with no customizations is completely functional, but the
developer is free to customize things at his leisure.
Changes: The SQL parser has been improved to support more cases. This
directly affects sites that use multilingual content, and broadens the
types of queries that can be used to define relationships.

[077] - ZenMagick 0.9.4.1
by DerManoMann (http://freshmeat.net/users/DerManoMann/)
Mon, Jan 12th 2009 09:45
About: ZenMagick is an alternative frontend for Zen Cart-based e-commerce

different compared to 0.9.4. There are two exceptions, though: database
transactions are supported within the controllers process method, and the
AJAX controller now uses the PHP native JSON code rather than the included
PEAR JSON class.
