About: Ion is a tiling (no overlapping windows) window manager that also has PWM-style tabbed frames which can contain multiple client windows. These features help to keep windows organized and to switch quickly between them. Ion was designed primarily as an efficient and unobtrusive window manager for users who prefer the keyboard. Changes: This is another maintenance release that fixes some minor issues.
About: F*EX (Frams' Fast File EXchange) is a Web based service to send very big files from one person to another. The sender uploads the file to the F*EX server and the recipient automatically gets a notification email with a download URL. The files will be automatically deleted after being downloaded or after an expiration date. The F*EX server itself is installed on a UNIX system, while the recipient and sender only need an email program and a Web browser of any kind on any operating system. Sending to multiple recipients needs storage on the server only once. Changes: Some bugfixes. Unix and Windows clients have been added for file upload > 2 GB. There is optional user autoregistration, "I have lost my auth-ID" requests, and a mailing list.
About: The WiKID Strong Authentication System is a highly scalable, secure two-factor authentication system. It is simple to implement and maintain, allows users to be validated automatically, requires no hardware tokens, has a simple API for application support (via Ruby, PHP, Java, COM, Python, etc.), supports multiple domains, and supports replication for fault tolerance and scalability. It also supports mutual /host and transaction authentication.
About: Quagga is a routing software suite, providing implementations of OSPF 2, OSPF 3, RIP 1 and 2, RIP 3 and BGP 4 for Unix platforms, particularly FreeBSD, Linux, and NetBSD. Changes: This release was intentionally prepared as a release candidate with most regressions addressed. Users of all 0.99.x and 0.98.x branches are advised to upgrade to 0.99.11, so the next stable branch can be started as early as possible. Particular changes include initial bgpd TCP-MD5 support (only for IPv4 at the moment), crash fixes in bgpd, another RIB-FIB syncing attempt in the zebra daemon, and an OpenSolaris SFW update.
About: Dice3DS is a set of Pure Python modules for dealing with 3D Studio format (*.3ds) files. It maps 3DS chunks into a hierarchical set of Python objects; it's a lot like how ElementTree works for XML files. Dice3DS requires Python 2.4 or higher, and Numpy. Note that it is not a wrapper for lib3ds. Changes: Dice3DS now parses KFDATA blocks, and the example OpenGL code (often the only part people use) now takes the keyframe data into account when rendering models. Substantial improvements were made in loading speed by using OpenGL vertex arrays.
About: Rockbox is a replacement firmware for MP3 players, written from scratch. It runs on a wide range of players from manufacturers such as Apple, Archos, Cowon, Iriver, Olympus, Sandisk, and Toshiba. Changes: Lots of new targets, lots of new codecs, and loads of new features were added.
About: The Midgard Components Framework (also called MidCOM) is an advanced component architecture which extends the Midgard Web content management framework. It provides mechanisms for building a Web site using components without much need for writing code to glue all this together. The administration site gets built automatically by using those components. Goodies like a caching engine and subrequests make site building even easier. Changes: This version is meant to ease transition from Web services using the deprecated Midgard 1.x APIs to the new Midgard2 architecture. Because of this, this release provides both API versions. This means that it can be used to run both Midgard 1 applications like the version 2.9 of the MidCOM component framework, and Midgard2 applications like MidCOM3.

SnapGalaxy is used as a new printing affiliate. SQLite 3.x and higher is supported.
About: SAcc is an access control system for Squid. It provides Web based account managment and restrictions. Changes: The URL restriction generator was fixed. Error page installation is now automatic. The logfile is not reopened after the log has been rotated. Cloning ACLs on saving was fixed. ACL deletions were added. Some code cleanups were made.
About: Who? is a graphical interface for the Unix command "who". With color codes for user idle times and no need for configuration, it shows in realtime who logged into your machine and checks if each user is idle or not.
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: This release supports the UltraVNC repeater proxy and Single Click connection modes. SOCKS proxies and proxy chaining now work on Windows. UltraVNC file transfer is much improved. UltraVNC DSM encryption and general symmetric encryption modes are supported. Local machine port protection mechanisms are provided. A new option selects the X11 VNC Viewer on Mac OS X. The ZYWRLE encoding (a wavelet based extension to ZRLE) was added. The Unix Viewer's popup window is split into two columns and includes new actions.
About: phpCAS is a client library for the ITS Central Authentication Service. Changes: phpCAS is now PEAR-installable. A handleLogoutRequests() method was added to handle logout requests incoming from the CAS server. The setHttpProxy(), setNetworkInterface(), and setExtraCurlOptions() methods were added. An undesirable notice was removed. The PEAR DB dependency when storing PGTs to the filesytem was removed.
About: The Web Help Desk is a Web-based helpdesk software system that allows you to dynamically assign, track, and fulfill all of your technical support trouble tickets and customer service requests with ease, all through an intuitive Web-based interface and two-way email integration. The Web Help Desk software also provides seamless asset discovery and remote control integration with Apple Remote Desktop, LANrev Client Manager, and JAMF Casper Suite. Changes: JAMF Casper Suite asset discovery was integrated. A location importer/exporter was added. Custom tool links were added for integrating with other asset tools (e.g., Remote Desktop Web Connection). If using an Oracle database, the application now checks during upgrades for any missing primary-key sequences, creating them if necessary. The ability to select client recipients of scheduled reports was added.
About: Directory Synchronize is a powerful, easy-to-configure tool to synchronize the contents of one directory with another. It can compare files by various attributes, such as size or modified-date. It can synchronize an unlimited number of directories, and has a detailed logging function.

About: The abcMIDI suite consists of programs for turning ABC music files into MIDI and vice versa, typesetting them as PostScript files, and manipulate them in several ways.
About: The DSI utilities are a mixed collection of classes accumulated during the last ten years in projects developed at the DSI (Dipartimento di Scienze dell'Informazione, i.e., Information Sciences Department) of the Universit� degli Studi di Milano. Changes: Some new methods make it possible to store and quickly read bit vectors. There are a few fixes for LongArrayBitVector.
About: abcm2ps is a package that converts music tunes from ABC format to PostScript. Based on abc2ps version 1.2.5, it was developed mainly to print baroque organ scores that have independant voices played on one or more keyboards, and a pedal-board. It introduces many extensions to the ABC language that make it suitable for classical music. Changes: The decorations +/+, +//+, and +///+ (which place tremolo on one note) were added. Several major bugs were fixed.
About: Kate is a codec for karaoke and text encapsulation for Ogg. Most of the time, this would be multiplexed with audio/video to carry subtitles, song lyrics (with or without karaoke data), etc, but it doesn't have to be. A possible use of a lone Kate stream would be an e-book. Moreover, the motion feature gives Kate a powerful means to describe arbitrary curves, so hand drawing of shapes can be achieved. This was originally meant for karaoke use, but can be used for any purpose. Motions can be attached to various semantics, like position or color, so scrolling or fading text can be defined. Changes: Several memory leaks on error code paths were fixed. Building was fixed when doxygen isn't found.
About: RackTables is a tool to manage tens of racks, hundreds of servers, and thousands of MAC and IP addresses. It will work with a single rack as well. It features a real-life rackspace model, typed rack objects with flexible attribute sets, a tagging system, IP address management ready for NAT, virtual routers and load balancers, accurate network connection handling, a universal search function, a multi-user access model, and an extensible dictionary. Changes: This release fixes a lot of minor bugs and introduces two notable changes into the user interface. First is that RackCode editing is now more convenient due to syntax highlighting and an improved semantic checker. Second is that IPv4 networks aren't a flat list any more, but group themselves into a tree according to the standard CIDR relations. Several database structure issues have also been fixed.
About: JLanguageLearn is a generic language course. It is based on Java and XML. You can define your own lessons in an easy way, and lessons are displayed in a graphical user interface.
