13 Nov 23:25 dhcpy6d 20121113

dhcpy6d delivers IPv6 addresses for DHCPv6 clients, which can be identified by DUID, hostname, or MAC address, as in the good old IPv4 days. Addresses may be generated randomly, by range, or by arbitrary ID or MAC address. Clients can get more than one address, leases and client configuration can be stored in databases, and DNS can be updated dynamically.

Release Notes: This release gets rid of the dependency of "/sbin/ip -6 neigh" to get the IPv6 neighbor cache. In Linux, a netlink socket is used to get the neighbor information.

13 Nov 23:24 OpenDNSSEC 1.3.11

OpenDNSSEC is software that manages the security of domain names on the Internet. The project intends to drive adoption of Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC) to further enhance Internet security.

Release Notes: NSEC3PARAM TTL should be set to zero. Bugfixes: OPENDNSSEC-306 (can't delete zone until Enforcer made signerconf); OPENDNSSEC-281 (Commandhandler was sometimes unresponsive); OPENDNSSEC-299 (ods-ksmutil <enter> now includes policy import); OPENDNSSEC-300 (ods-ksmutil policy purge documented with a warning); OPENDNSSEC-338 (fixes zone deletion on MySQL in ods-ksmutil (broken by SUPPORT-27)); OPENDNSSEC-342: auditor comparisons made case-insensitive; and OPENDNSSEC-345 (in ods-ksmutil, use ods-control to HUP the enforcerd process).

13 Nov 23:23 Pillow 0.0.9

Pillow scans directories searching for CommonJS packages (package.json files) and makes the packages usable in the browser (i.e. the found packages and modules can be accessed using the require() function). It supports multiple js files per package (and the dot notation in the require function). It also supports non js files (PNG, JPEG, GIF, JSON, CSS, HTML, and MD). Pillow can operate in command line mode (pillowscan mydirectory) or in server mode (pillowserve mydirectory), in which case packages are remade on the fly each time they are loaded through HTTP.

Release Notes: Support for ender packages, support for packaging JSON and markdown files, and miscellaneous bugfixes. This version is in use (as part of swallowapps) in the node knockout project GuloStudio.

13 Nov 23:22 SwallowApps 0.0.7

Swallowapps provides interactive tools for the design of Web (HTML5) content. You create the visual part of your application using visual tools and get instant feedback while you adjust dimensions, transformation matrices, colors, shadows, gradients, and other styling elements in an intuitive and interactive way. When the time comes for programming, Swallowapps combines the convenience of the commonJS packaging specification (the require() function, package.json, etc.) with an automatic build process. Modify any source module of any package which you use, hit F5 in the browser, and your updated application is reloaded. Swallowapps tools are built with themselves, so as you learn how to use the tools, you also learn how to modify them and make them tightly fit your specific needs.

Release Notes: Support for multiple documents, better keyboard integration with the browser, better zoom management, in place rich editing of text, and more. This version is used in the node knockout project GuloStudio.

13 Nov 23:20 jquery.serialize-hash 0.3

jquery.serialize-hash is a small jQuery plugin which returns a hash from serialization of a form. It supports brackets on input names. It is convenient if you want to get values from a form and merge it with another hash, for example.

Release Notes: Adds support for HTML5 input types: search, tel, URL, email, datetime, date, month, week, time, datetime-local, number, range, and color.

13 Nov 23:20 Novius OS 0.1.3

13 Nov 23:13 The Daily Journal 2-0.3

fltdj, The Daily Journal, is a PIM program that is written using the Fast Light Tool Kit. It manages daily notes, appointments, holidays, contact and to-do lists, and issues alerts before scheduled appointments.

Release Notes: This version provides the facility to add a new contact or to-do list with a right mouse click. A new menu option to save data as needed has been added. A lockfile now prevents two concurrent instances from running simultaneously in the same account. Some bugs have been corrected.

13 Nov 22:48 FlatTraffic 1.0.0 Beta 1

FlatTraffic is a Web interface for analysing netflow records and showing statistics designed to make it clear and easy to determine which hosts on a network are consuming data. It has been primarily designed for use by networking and servers geeks who have to endure the pain of data-capped Internet Service Providers, something that's unfortunately rather common in the Australia/New Zealand region in particular.

Release Notes: This is the initial public release; it's functional but lacking some final polish and components needed to make it prime-time ready.

13 Nov 22:04 Another File Integrity Checker 3.2

afick is another file integrity checker, designed to be fast and fully portable between Unix and Windows platforms. It works by first creating a database that represents a snapshot of the most essential parts of your computer system. You can then run the script to discover all modifications made since the snapshot was taken (i.e. files added, changed, or removed). The configuration syntax is very close to that of aide or tripwire, and a graphical interface is provided.

Release Notes: This is the second release of the new 3.x branch (a progressive rewrite in object oriented programming). Many bugs were fixed. A new plugin (stat_date) was added. The class Afick::Tst was added.

13 Nov 22:01 simple disk benchmark 0.5

sdb is a really simple program to benchmark disks. It only writes/reads data sequentially to/from a file and calculates the performance of this action. A memory buffer is used for input/output to get values close to the real performance of the disk or RAID system. You can use flags like O_DIRECT and O_SYNC to avoid buffering by the operating system. It is similar to dd, but there are some differences, since dd was not created for benchmarking a disk. It is possible to initialize the buffer with random values before writing them to the disk or a file on the disk. It is a simple but effective program to get the maximum speed of a disk. Due to the simplicity, you will get the results much faster than with a more complex benchmark.

Release Notes: There is no functional change in this release. The verbose output is reformatted, users can add comments, and the hostname and date/time are printed. This release tries to find the device where the files reside and the used filesystem (maybe someone forgot to mount the drive?). The comment is helpful to include if, for example, someone changes the Cache from WriteBack to WriteThrough. With symbolic links to the real devices, you can test several drives in parallel. This might be helpful if you have, for example, one RAID controller with two backplanes. You could build volumes per BP, test them in parallel, and find the limits of the RAID controller.

13 Nov 10:46 ePeriodique 0.4

ePeriodique is a graphical application which displays the periodic table of the elements. It shows basic data for each element, pictures, Bohr models, and lattice structures. It tries to use the EFL way and provide two themes, one for the desktop (default) and one for small displays (small).

Release Notes: New elements (113-118) were added to the table. EFL 1.7.1 is now used.

13 Nov 10:45 4MLinux 4.1 Allinone Edition FINAL

4MLinux is a miniature Linux distribution focusing on four capabilities: maintenance (by using it as a system rescue live CD), multimedia (for example, for playing video DVDs), miniserver (using the inetd daemon), and mystery (meaning console games).

Release Notes: This final has all the features included in 4MLinux 4.1 Rescue Edition, 4MLinux 4.1 Media Edition, 4MLinux 4.1 Server Edition, and 4MLinux 4.1 Game Edition.

13 Nov 10:45 PHP OAuth API 2012.11.13

PHP OAuth API authorizes user access using the OAuth protocol. It abstracts OAuth 1.0, 1.0a, and 2.0 in the same class. It provides built-in support for popular OAuth servers: Bitbucket, Box.net, Dropbox, Eventful, Facebook, Fitbit, Flickr, Foursquare, github, Google, Instagram, LinkedIn, Microsoft, RightSignature, Scoop.it, StockTwits, Tumblr, Twitter, XING, and Yahoo!. Every other OAuth server is supported by setting an endpoint URLs and other parameters using specific class variables. The class can also send requests to an API using the previously-obtained OAuth access token. For servers which support offline access, the class can renew expired tokens automatically using refresh tokens.

Release Notes: This release introduces a ResetAccessToken function for resetting the access token that may have been cached in session variables after access to the server API may have been revoked. This causes the user to be asked for authorization again.

13 Nov 10:44 Samba 4.0.0rc5

Samba is a software suite that provides seamless file and print services to SMB/CIFS clients. It is freely available, unlike other SMB/CIFS implementations, and allows for interoperability between Linux/Unix servers and Windows-based clients.

Release Notes: This is the latest release candidate of the upcoming Samba version.

13 Nov 10:44 Aspose.Slides for Java 3.0.0

Aspose.Slides for Java is a Java component for manipulating PowerPoint presentations. It doesn't require PowerPoint and supports export to PDF, embedding and linking of audio and video frames, slide cloning, thumbnail generation, and presentation features, the ability to extract text from a presentation, and more.

Release Notes: Features like printing presentations, chart rendering, SmartArt rendering, PPT/ODP to PPTX conversion, Export of presentations to HTML, SmartArt rendering, and processing of OOXML presentations are included in this release. You can migrate code written using older versions of the Java API by observing the differences mentioned in How to Migrate to Aspose.Slides for Java 3.0.0. This version is no longer dependent on JAI or other libraries for rendering presentations.

13 Nov 10:43 JPPF 3.1.4

JPPF enables applications with large processing power requirements to be run on any number of computers, in order to dramatically reduce their processing time. This is done by splitting an application into smaller parts that can be executed simultaneously on different machines.

The most noticeable changes include the reinstated ability to store credit card information, the updated GeoIP database, and the latest add-ons for the Twigmo and Searchanise services.

13 Nov 00:32 Multiple Eyepairs Only 1

Multiple Eyepairs Only is a project to define a file format and to provide tools to use cryptography for things like four-eyes principles. The key idea is this: if information should only be accessible to a group of people together, with the additional possibility to have some redundancy in participants, then MEO is for you.

Release Notes: This is the initial release, but is already basic feature complete.

13 Nov 00:30 ObjFW 0.7.1

ObjFW is a portable, lightweight framework for Objective C.

Release Notes: Support for Haiku. Autorelease pools now work properly without __thread. Incorrect framework version in the Xcode project has been fixed. Documentation fixes and improvements. Blocks now only use 16 bits for the reference count in order to avoid problems with newer Clang versions. More use of OF_SENTINEL.

13 Nov 00:29 Sunflower 0.1a-48

Sunflower is a small and highly customizable twin-panel file manager for Linux with support for plugins. It is intended to be an easy-to-use and powerful file manager that seamlessly integrates into the GNOME desktop environment.

13 Nov 00:27 cardme 0.4.0-b2

cardme is a Java library implementation of RFC 2426, VCard. It provides Java applications with a way to read and write from and to the VCard file format. The project's goals are to provide a flexible and easy to use library with excellent documentation.

Release Notes: This release propagates the bugfixes and quoted-printabled improvements from the 0.3.x branch to the trunk, thus resulting in the beta 2 release of version 0.4. Users are encouraged to try out the beta version of cardme. The bulk of the code base and API has been revamped to make things easier to use. Method names have been renamed to more closely match the RFC, and the architecture has been redesigned so that it is more modular and scalable. This version also sports some fluent interfaces on VCard types and parameter types.
