iODBC is a cross-platform Driver Manager that comforms to the Microsoft ODBC 2.x & 3.x and X/Open SQL CLI data access specs.
iODBC Driver Manager and SDK enables the development of database-centric solutions that are both database and platform independent.
What is the ODBC Value Proposition?
The ability to develop applications independent of back-end database engine.
What is iODBC?
iODBC is the acronym for Independent Open DataBase Connectivity, an Open Source platform independent implementation of both the ODBC and X/Open specifications. It is rapidly emerging as the industry standard for developing solutions that are language, platform and database independent.
What is the iODBC Value Proposition?
The ability to develop applications independent of back-end database engine, operating system, and for the most part programming language. Although ODBC and iODBC are both C based Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) there are numerous cross language hooks and bridges from languages such as: C++, Java, Perl, Python, TCL etc.
iODBC has been ported to numerous platforms, including:
Linux (x86, Itanium, Alpha, Mips, and StrongArm), Solaris (Sparc & x86), AIX, HP-UX (PA-RISC & Itanium), Digital UNIX, Dynix, Generic UNIX 5.4, FreeBSD, MacOS 9, MacOS X, DG-UX, and OpenVMS.
This is a great SDK for porting WIN32-based ODBC applications to Linux and other OS platforms.
Enhancements:
- Added support for FileDSN
- Added support for Connection Pooling
- Added check for tracefile size
- Call ODBC 2.x functions in driver if application uses ODBC 2.x only calls
- Fixed problem parsing driver result in SQLSetStmtAttr
- Fixed source code readability
- Fixed bug in overwriting driver name
- Fixed check for /Library/ODBC for Mac OS X
- Fixed prototypes
- Rewrote bootstrap script and configure summary
- Use localtime_r in tracing when available
- Fixed build issues with Mac OS X
- Small code cleanups and fixes

SDE for NetBeans is a UML modeling environment tightly integrated with NetBeans.
It lets you draw all types of UML diagrams (use case diagram, class diagram, sequence diagram, activity diagram, etc.) in NetBeans, reverse source code (Java, C++, XML, XML Schema, CORBA IDL, etc.) to UML models, and generate Java source from UML diagrams.
SDE for NetBeans Community Edition features a Rational Rose importer, an XMI importer, HTML/PDF documentation generators, and plug-in and template support.
Enhancements:
- Branch and tag capability was added to the VP Teamwork Server with Subversion and CVS repository integration.
- This allows different modeling projects to be run in parallel while keeping the release quality project stable in the trunk.
- A user interface designer was introduced for creating screen mock-ups in the early stages of a software development project.
- Usability of the sequence diagram was increased.
- There were also a number of enhancements for various other features.

Locale files for South Africa project are scripts to aid in localization of software. Deals with conversion between different translation formats (such as gettext-based .po formats, OpenOffice.org formats, and Mozilla formats). Also tools to help process localizations etc.
Translate.org.za is a non-profit organisation producing Free and Open Source software that enables and empowers South Africans.
The Translate Project started in 2001 with the vision of providing Free Software translated into the 11 official languages of South Africa. Free Software in your language is true empowerment.
Enhancements:
- The international dialing code has been changed from 09 to 00.

GIMP Animation Package is a collection of Plug-Ins to extend the GIMP with capabilities to edit and create Animations as sequences of single frames.

Please note that gimp-gap 2.2.1 requires gimp 2.2 and glib 2.8 or higher. It is recommended to use gtk+ 2.8.

Additional Installation Notes:

This GIMP-GAP release includes sourcecode tarballs of external libraries :

- ffmpeg
- libmpeg3

Those libs are built automatically. Configuration options for those libs can be set by editing the
files:

extern_libs/configure_options_ffmpeg.txt
extern_libs/configure_options_libmpeg3.txt

Those configure_option files are read by the master .configure script

Installation:

./autogen.sh # includes the ./configure call
make
make install

GIMP is an acronym for GNU Image Manipulation Program. It is a freely distributed program for such tasks as photo retouching, image composition and image authoring.

ginterface is an instant messenger application to communicate with people. ginterface is aimed for the easy communication between people working in Linux Desktops.

You can set up ginterface in your LAN workspace, to communicate with people in that LAN. For using ginterface there is no need for an Internet connection and its all with in the LAN. ginterface has a separate server, gifserver (gif is the acronym of ginterface).

Run this server in one of the LAN systems and start using gif. The only thing to take note is the IP Address of the system in which the server is running, coz., this IP is needed to connect gifclient (client part of gif) to the server.

gifserver is written to run in CUI and gifclient in GUI with user-friendly interfaces. The administrator of the server has the power to add new user to ginterface.

When a new user is added, you can add him/her in your contact list. There are facilities for offline messages also. You can send offline messages to any of your contacts and he/she can see that when he/she logs in again.
