LinuxSampler is a software audio sampler with professional grade features.
LinuxSampler was designed as a sampler backend, decoupled from any user interface. It provides a network interface using an ASCII based protocol called LSCP for controlling the sampler and managing sampler sessions. But dont be afraid, with QSampler we already have a convenient GUI frontend (based on the cross-platform GUI library Qt) for LinuxSampler and due to the decoupled design you can even control the sampler with the GUI frontend from another computer, probably even running another OS like Windows or OS X. Beside our own custom network control layer we planned to add existing ones as well (e.g. OSC). With the planned SMP and cluster support LinuxSampler might become a very interesting tool for high-end studios and concerts in future.
It is planned to support all common sampler formats in LinuxSampler, but at the moment we chose to concentrate on the Gigasampler format, because we think its currently the best sampler format in regards of quality and power, especially for the synthesis of natural instruments like pianos, brass and bowed instruments. But we already made good advance in implementing this format, so we are optimistic to start with adding other formats soon. Beside that we also planned to design our own, sophisticated sampler format to introduce a more powerful and more flexible sampler format compared to any sampler format currently available in the world. Be encouraged to share your ideas about such a new format with us!
Anyway, there are so many things to do and our hands are limited. So dont hesitate on participating to the project!

Livestat project is a statistics management system for academic competition tournaments.
Livestat is a Perl-based statistics management system designed for academic competition tournaments, a.k.a "College Bowl" or "quiz bowl" events.
Livestat is used to automate the processing of statistics from individual matches, and to quickly publish statistics on teams and players to the Web.
Enhancements:
- Now sorts teams by name when printing list in game.pl.
- New files common.head and common.foot store the top and bottom of all HTML pages to be generated.
- No longer prints "N/A: " in round views when no player has a positive score.
- Restructured head2head hash in standings.pl; now has fields for wins, losses, ties, points-for, and points-against.
- Added style number in tables -- useful for right-aligning numeric fields

Copernicus provides a program for remembering usernames and passwords.

It enables you to store all your various Internet login details in one convenient location. It is easy to use, free, cross-platform, and available in more than ten different languages.

Copernicus is a username and password remembering program that enables you to store all your various internet login details in one convenient location. Rest assured, it is totally free from spyware and adware which tend to haunt this type of program. Apart from its ease of use, other benefits of Copernicus include the fact that it doesnt cost you a cent, is open source, will work on most modern computing platforms such as Linux, Mac OS X and Windows, and is available in more than ten different languages.

Copernicus is extremely easy to use - as you can see from the screenshots listed on this page, all of your sites are listed on the left hand side. If you click on one of those sites - the associated login details (username, password and any other information you require) are displayed on the left. Due to the fact many people have multiple logins for a single site - you can even have several logins associated with the one site and can browse the other ones by clicking on the login drop down box, or clicking the shortcut for the next login (denoted by the > symbol).

Copernicus is well suited to a multi-user computer as each user can have their own copernicus file where they store their logins.

Like all Tank Software programs, Copernicus strives to be highly customisable. You can change the language that Copernicus uses to one of the many included translations (there are over ten, including French, German, Greek, Japanese, Russian and Spanish). If you dont like the Look & Feel (a.k.a the GUI theme), you can choose between the Kunststoff Java Metal theme (default, example at top), your System default theme (Windows, example at bottom) the standard Java theme or even a custom Java Look & Feel.

As stated above, Copernicus is accessible by most computer users supporting many different languages and operating systems.

nodoze is a Perl script to repair websites built with MS Windows so that they will work properly on a UNIX server.

It changes all file and directory names, and all relative URLS in the html, to lower case, and it changes all .htm extensions to .html.

When websites are built on on computers running Microsoft Windows, the case of file and directory names is often ignored.

Other "widowsizms" are also introduced (such as ending files with .htm instead of .html). This causes BIG problems if the site is served under unix.

What nodoze Changes

".htm" extensions in file names and in Relative URLs are changed to ".html"
< img src="document.htm" > becomes < img src="document.html" >

All files are renamed to lower case. All Relative URLs are changed to lower case
< img src="http:/Images/my.JPG" > becomes < img src="http:/images/my.jpg" >

"Dangerous" characters in URLs are escaped
< img src="a space.jpg" > becomes < img src="a%20space.jpg" >

"" characters in URLs become "/"
< img src="http:www.server.com" > becomes < img src="http://www.server.com" >

URLs are quoted
< img src=picture.jpg > becomes < img src="picture.jpg" >

Javascript: URLs are not changed by nodoze (i.e. the above doesnt apply to them)

Relative URLs (a.k.a Local URLs)

In a Relative URL the server is not named
< img src="http:/Local.JPG" > becomes < img src="http:/local.jpg" >

An Absolute URL is a mailto:, or a javascript:, or names a server
example: < img src="http://www.server.com/absolute.jpg" >
