CalcRogue Beta 6c
CalcRogue project is a Rogue-like for calculators, Palm, and PCs. more>>
CalcRogue project is a Rogue-like for calculators, Palm, and PCs.
CalcRogue is based on the Unix game Rogue and those similar to it, collectively known as "roguelikes". They involve a character which can move around, attack monsters, collect magical items, maybe cast spells, and gain levels.
The dungeons are randomly generated, so the areas are always fresh, and the difficulty is such that it never gets too easy. (Note: CalcRogue is not derived from Rogue.)
Main features:
- Complex, randomly generated levels
- Overworld map, towns, and quests
- Spells and magically summoned minions
- Easy to use interface with tutorial
- Line of sight/lighting calculation
- Four-color grayscale graphics
- Complete inventory management system
- Wide variety of magical scrolls, potions, wands, rings, amulets and spells
- Missile combat with bows, crossbows or thrown potions
- Compressed saved games
- In-game help
- Hidden traps and doors
- Five different player classes
- Varied monsters with special powers
- Gold and shopping
- High-score listing
Enhancements:
Features
- Finished the tower quest, for wizards and necromancers. No spoilers in this changelog, but it involves lots of cool stuff.
- Checkpoint saves. A backup saved game is automatically made whenever you move to a new level, and restored if the game crashes.
Bug fixes
- (PalmOS) Fixed a stack overflow in the bytecode interpretter which caused crashes all over the place.
- (PalmOS) Fixed infinite prompt loop when running into a peaceful creature
- Fixed missing exit from tower area
- Fixed bug which could cause disconnected areas with the big-map generator
- Monsters wont be generated in the wilderness area
- Fixed bug that allowed duplicating items
- It is no longer possible to throw equipped non-missile weapons
Misc
- Balance changes to make the necromancer stronger

Firewall-1 Response is a Perl script for performing simple active responses based on a Checkpoint Firewall-1. It is good for closing off your network against people who do port scans or network sweeps.
fw sam provides a command line interface to a limited feature-set of the firewall security policy. The purpose of this is to allow scripts such as this a way to dynamically change the security policy of one or more firewalls without administrator intervention. This should scare you, because of the potential of these changes allowing bad guys to run a DoS attack against you.

cp2fwbuilder 0.6
cp2fwbuilder (Checkpoint Firewall 1 to FwBuilder) helps you to migrate an existing Checkpoint Firewall 1 installation . more>>
cp2fwbuilder (Checkpoint Firewall 1 to FwBuilder) helps you to migrate an existing Checkpoint Firewall 1 installation and its rulesets to Linux with iptables or a BSD-based firewall.
This is done by converting the Rulebase- and the Objects- Database from Checkpoint to the FirewallBuilder XML Format.
Remember though, that this program is under development and could eventually do nasty things when doing the translation. especially with things like Userauthentication or Clientauthentication which are not supported under fwbuilder.
To use it, you have the following options
cp2fwbuilder
[--objects=]
[--rules=]
[--all_objs] [--all_services]
[--with_implicit_rules]
[--sort_by_type]
[--verbose] [--version] [--comments]
[--output_xml=]
cp2fwbuilder --objects=objects.C --rules=rulebase.W --output_xml=rulebase.xml
fwbuilder -f rulebase.xml
Enhancements:
- removed quotes from object names

Camera Life 2.6
Full Decent Camera Life is a photo gallery system. more>>
Camera Life (FDCL) is a system for cataloging your photo collection. Camera Life project gives users the ability to search your archive by albums that you set up, or by directory structure.
Camera life (FDCL) is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
FDCL is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with Chatterbox; see the file LICENSE. If not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA. Or visit http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html
Main features:
Self Updating
- When you add photos to the photo directory you specified when installing, FDCL will cache, thumnail and make public all such photos (Administration: File Manager). You can allow certain user classes to maintain your site by editing the photo descriptions and delete photos that suck.
Topic view and Folder View
- On the main page, users are presented with the option of viewing photos by topic or folder. In topic view, albums (collections of like photos) are categorized by topic (ex: People, Things, My Vacataions).
- Folder view is hierrical and based on the directory structure of the photos. When viewing a photo, users are given the option to view others photos in the same topic or folder.
Image deletion
- When viewing a photo, you have the option to delete it. When a user deletes an image, FDCL actually flags it as non-public. An admin has to actually erase it (Administration: File Manager). And when you erase it, FDCL just moves it to the erased folder. FDCL will never rm your photos. With this in mind, it is sensible to allow users to delete offensive images and admins to erase them.
Themes
- You can easily change the look of the entire site by choosing a different theme (Administration: Customize: Themes). Official themes can be downlaoded from http://fdcl.sourceforge.net other themes are available at your local supermarket (or not).
Users
- Users can anonyously sign up an account. The admins choose which accounts to give privileges to. All authentication is done by random cookies saved in the DB and passwords are salted and hashed.
Logging
- Some actions are logged to the logs table. This is done via the db_log function. You can view the logs (Administration: Log Viewer) and see the audit trail to modifications to the ssytem. You can then rollback specific action (like renaming a photo) by simply choosing the previous state to go back to.
Enhancements:
- This version adds support for Gallery Remote API, microformats, sitemaps, OpenSearch, and RSS feeds, and supports iPhoto photocasting.
- There are now photo keywords with a del.icio.us-like keyword editor.
- Checkpoints allow you to review and approve changes to the site.
- Your users can now order prints online.
- There are also big changes under the hood and some security enhancements.

Jockey 0.6
Jockey is a user-space library for recording and replaying an execution of generic x86 GNU/Linux programs. more>>
Jockey is a user-space library for recording and replaying an execution of generic GNU/Linux programs.
It is a debugging tool especially for long-running networked servers that suffer from bugs that are difficult to reproduce.
Main features:
- Jockey is provided as a shared-object (dynamically linked library) file. It does not require source-code modifications nor binary relinking. Just link libjockey.so to your target application at runtime using LD_PRELOAD.
- It records and replays the effects of individual Linux system calls and (in some cases) CPU instructions. It can replay at the level of individual memory loads and stores. For example, if your program crashes because of a dangling pointer access, Jockey can replay the bug right up to the point of crash.
- Jockey can take checkpoints of process state and replay execution from any checkpoint.
- Jockey can record and replay pthread-based programs, but in a slightly bogus way--it Jockey emulates pthreads entirely in the user space. Pthread-based programs should run as normal, but under the cover, Jockey emulates multi-threading I/O using user-space context switching and a giant poll() loop.
- Jockey doesnt support programs that dynamically generate code, such as Java. It does support programs written in interpreted languages, including Perl, Python, and Ruby, although Im not sure if Jockey is really that useful for these programs.

BerkeleyDB Backend Storage Engine for DURUS 20070503
BerkeleyDB Backend Storage Engine for DURUS provides a storage engine for DURUS, a persistence system for the Python language. more>>
BerkeleyDB Backend Storage Engine for DURUS project provides a storage engine for DURUS, a persistence system for the Python programming language.
Some advantages compared to Durus standard FileStorage:
- Startup time is negligible.
- You dont need an in-memory index, so your repository size is only limited by storage space, not RAM.
- If you change existing objects, your storage size doesnt increase.
- If you delete objects, those objects are garbage collected in background, slowly, without performance degradation.
- You can still do a full fast collection, if you need it. While this collection is in progress, Durus still serves objects. From time to time, nevertheless, it can be unresponsible for 2 or 3 seconds, while is doing a checkpointing to be able to free database logging diskspace.
- Garbage collection doesnt increase storage size. Neither RAM usage.
- Garbage collection deletes objects using nondurable transactions, very efficiently. If the collection is aborted abruptly (program or machine crashes), the collection will start again from the beginning. If the GC finishes without problems, that state is durable.
- Any object store in the storage will commit a durable transaction, including all objects released in the background garbage collector, along the way.
- Garbage collection time is proportional to garbage, not repository size.
There are some disadvantages, nevertheless:
- IMPORTANT: This backend uses reference counting to decide when an object is garbage and can be collected. So, if you have cycles in your data structures, you **MUST*BREAK** them before releasing the objects.
- Failing to do that will leak diskspace. It is possible that in a future release we can collect cycles, but try to avoid that pattern.
- Leaking objects will grow the diskspace, but **NO** corruption or malfunction will happen. No other secondary effect.
- Although this code could work on Windows, I havent checked it. Absolutely no garantee!.
- Sometimes this backend can become irresponsible for a couple of seconds. It is busy doing a checkpoint to recycle database logging space. The pause should be sort, nevertheless.
- Dont use this storage backend over NFS, at least you know what is going on.
- Since we are using BerkeleyDB as the backend:
- You should be experienced with BerkeleyDB deployments.
- Beware when updating Python or BerkeleyDB. In particular, BerkeleyDB is known by breaking (but they DOCUMENT!) binary compatibility between versions. In this case, they ALWAYS document the procedure to do a controlled upgrade, so dont worry. But take note of the risk.
- To do a trustable backup, you should follow instructions in BerkeleyDB documentation:
- http://www.sleepycat.com/docs/ref/transapp/reclimit.html
- http://www.sleepycat.com/docs/ref/transapp/archival.html
- http://www.sleepycat.com/docs/utility/db_hotbackup.html
- In Python you can use the standard "bsddb" or the up-to-date "bsddb3" bindings (which will be included in new python versions). This product will try to use always the more recent BerkeleyDB bindings. Be careful about BerkeleyDB version changes when you update the bindings.
- Since BerkeleyDB files are binary structures, a corrupt database can be unrecoverable. Be diligent and careful with your backups.
You can use this product both as a normal (local) filestorage, or a server (remote) storage system, just like the usual Durus FileStorage.
Enhancements:
- Compatibility with Durus 3.7 was added.

Bifrost 0.9.6
Bifrost is a firewall management interface to iptables (iptables GUI). more>>
Bifrost is a firewall management interface to iptables (iptables GUI). The system is inspired by Checkpoint and Watchguard firewall management. We looked at the way Checkpoint works with source, destination, action and logging. At the same time, we are managing incoming and outgoing traffic in a similar way as Watchguard and PIX Firewalls.

LAM/MPI 7.1.3
LAM/MPI is an implementation of the Message Passing Interface (MPI) parallel standard that is especially friendly to clusters. more>>
LAM/MPI is an implementation of the Message Passing Interface (MPI) parallel standard that is especially friendly to clusters. It includes a persistent runtime environment for parallel programs, support for all of MPI-1, and a good chunk of MPI-2, such as all of the dynamic functions, C++ bindings, one-way communication and MPI-IO.
LAM/MPI is now in a maintenance mode. Bug fixes and critical patches are still being applied, but little real "new" work is happening in LAM/MPI. This is a direct result of the LAM/MPI Team spending the vast majority of their time working on our next-generation MPI implementation -- Open MPI.
Although LAM is not going to go away any time soon (we certainly would not abondon our user base!) -- the web pages, user lists, and all the other resources will continue to be available indefinitely -- we would encourage all users to try migrating to Open MPI. Since its an MPI implementation, you should be able to simply recompile and re-link your applications to Open MPI -- they should "just work." Open MPI contains many features and performance enhancements that are not available in LAM/MPI.
Enhancements:
- Man page cleanups.
- Fixes for when tkill is not in the default location.
- A fix for hangs in 64-bit builds on Mac OS X systems.
- Localhost searches have changed to 127.0.0.0/8.
- Support for Fortran types MPI_REAL{4,8,16} for predefined floating point operations.
- A compile error in "ib" RPI, a problem with MPI_COMM_ACCEPT on Fedora Core 4, name clashes with FreeBSD symbols, Cygwin installation symlinks, an issue with hostfile comments, and Totalview shared object support on OS X have been fixed.
- The restart logic in the "self" CR module has been cleaned up.
- A lot of checkpoint/restart documentation has been added.

MOSIX Grid and Cluster Management 2.21.2.6
MOSIX Grid and Cluster Management is a management system for Linux clusters. more>>
MOSIX Grid and Cluster Management is a management system for Linux clusters and organizational grids that provides a Single-System Image.
In a MOSIX based system, there is no need to modify or link applications with any library, copy files, login to remote nodes, or even assign processes to different nodes; it is all done automatically. Just "fork and forget", like in an SMP.
Main features:
- Provides a Single-System Image (SSI).
- Automatic resource discovery.
- Adaptive workload distribution by process migration:
- Preserves the users "login-node" environment.
- No need to open "logins" or copy files to remote clusters.
- No need to link applications with special libraries.
- Automatic process migration:
- For load-balancing.
- From slower to faster nodes.
- When a node run out of free memory.
- Supports virtual organizations:
- Manages disruptive configurations:
- Clusters can join or leave the Grid at any time.
- Guest processes are moved out before a cluster is disconnected.
- Long-running guest processes are not killed.
- Clusters could be shared symmetrically or asymmetrically.
- Each cluster owner can assign different priorities to guest processes from other clusters.
- A flexible use of nodes within and among different groups.
- Local processes force out guest processes.
- A secure run time environment (sandbox) for guest processes.
- Live queuing - queued jobs preserve their full generic Linux environment.
- Support of batch jobs, checkpoint and recovery.
- An on-line monitor for the status of the Grid and each cluster.
Enhancements:
- This release uses version 2.6.22.3 of the Linux kernel.
