The UDE-Project is creating a new WM which will be a complete GUI in future. The project does not use any special GUI-Libraries such as QT or GTK+.

We just use the standard Xlibs (both to keep UDE fast and slim and to avoid dependencies).

UDE has a completely original LooknFeel, its not just another copy of the so well known "classical" window management user interface.

boto project is an integrated interface to current and future infrastructural services offered by Amazon Web Services.
Main features:
- Simple Storage Service (S3)
- Simple Queue Service (SQS)
- Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)
- Mechanical Turk
Enhancements:
- This release adds support for Paid AMIs in EC2.

ChordCast is a Java program designed to help musicians in creating, sharing, and printing chords. It can export chords to HTML documents (using PNG images) for easy publishing. The application is written in English and in French.
Enhancements:
- Drag n drop behavior improved
- Context menus added
- Special or accentuated characters bug fixed
- Several other bug fixes.

KBoard is a generic game interface for two player turn based board games, and currently supports a bunch of chess variants, connect four, reversi and chain reaction (and more will be added). Kboard also supports network chess play on ics servers, as well as game observation and examination.
We have implemented a quite powerful generic animation engine, and a highly customizable theme specification (based on lua), that can just load everything and create shadows (default theme is SVG, skulls theme too).
At the moment the released code is only based on Qt4, so it should be quite portable, but we will make use of Kde when available in future releases.
Generic game support:
Many board games can be easily implemented using the extensible KBoard infrastructure. So far, the following board games are implemented:
- Chess
- Crazyhouse
- Atomic
- Monster Chess (King and four pawns)
- Progressive Chess
- Reversi
- Connect Four
- Chain Reaction

DirectX support for Wine project enables DirectX 9 support for Wine, which is useful for games and 3D graphics.
DirectX support for Wine is a set of patches against Wine to implement DirectX 9. It allows modern games and 3D applications to run under Wine.
The patches include many experimental and beta features that have not yet made it into the stable Wine source tree.
The aim of the project is to provide full support for DirectX 8 and 9 so that all games and 3D applications will run on Linux or any other platform that Wine supports.
Main features:
- Shared wined3d codebase for Direct3D 8 and 9
- Hardware non-power2 texstures
- Improved compressed texture support
- Many more texture formats supported
- Offscreen texture improvements
- Colour corrections for textures
- A tonne of bug fixes and other improvements from earlier releases
Enhancements:
- Reworked support for non-power2 textures
- Support for Vertex buffer objects
- Support for caching
- Hardware vertex shaders
- Partial tidyup of vertex declarations
- Better support for compressed textures
- Fix for texturing problems in Axis and Allies and Evil Genius
- Fix for model corruption in Pirates
- Movies in Pirates
- A Fix for the lines on the landscape in Axis and Allies
- Crash fixes in fixupvertices with indexes data
- Numerous other performance improvements

wmisdnmon logs the 5 latest calls for your ISDN line. You can click in a number logged to see details about calls.
wmisdnmon use the isdninfo daemon distributed with kisdnmon (a similar application for kde). wmisdnmon dont use the 14lmon daemon (you can disable it).
You must install i4ldaemons set the init.d to initialize it. wmisdnmon use only the isdninfo daemon (you can disable i4lmon for security purposes). If you have a sound card and installed the sox package, you will listen a ring when there is a incoming call.
wmisdnmon is being developped on a machine running Conectiva Linux 7.0 (Brazilian RedHat like distro)
Enhancements:
- Fix: file was corrupted

The Irrlicht Engine is an open source high performance realtime 3D engine written and usable in C++ and also available for .NET languages.
Irrlicht Engine is completely cross-platform, using D3D, OpenGL and its own software renderer, and has all of the state-of-the-art features which can be found in commercial 3d engines.
Weve got a huge active community, and there are lots of projects in development that use the engine.
You can find enhancements for Irrlicht all over the web, like alternative terrain renderers, portal renderers, exporters, world layers, tutorials, editors, language bindings for java, perl, ruby, basic, python, lua, and so on. And best of all: Its completely free.
Main features:
- High performance realtime 3D rendering using Direct3D and OpenGL [more]
- Platform independent. Runs on Windows95, 98, NT, 2000, XP and Linux.[more]
- Huge built-in and extensible material library with vertex and pixel shader support [more].
- Seamless indoor and outdoor mixing through highly customizeable scene mangagment. [more]
- Character animation system with skeletal and morph target animation. [more]
- Particle effects, billboards, light maps, environment mapping, stencil buffer shadows, and lots of other special effects. [more]
- .NET language binding which makes the engine available to all .NET languages like C#, VisualBasic, and Delphi.NET.
- Platform and driver independent fast software renderer included. It features z-buffer, gouraud shading, alpha-blending and transparency, fast 2D drawing.
- Powerful, customizeable and easy to use 2D GUI System with Buttons, Lists, Edit boxes, ..
- 2D drawing functions like alpha blending, color key based blitting, font drawing and mixing 3D with 2D graphics.
- Clean, easy to understand and well documentated API with lots of examples and tutorials.
- Written in pure C++ and totally object orientated.
- Direct import of common mesh file formats: Maya (.obj), 3DStudio (.3ds), COLLADA (.dae), DeleD (.dmf), Milkshape (.ms3d), Quake 3 levels (.bsp), Quake2 models (.md2), Microsoft DirectX (.X)... [more]
- Direct import of Textures: Windows Bitmap (.bmp), Portable Network Graphics (.png), Adobe Photoshop (.psd), JPEG File Interchange Format (.jpg), Truevision Targa (.tga), ZSoft Painbrush (.pcx)... [more]
- Fast and easy collision detection and response.
- Optimized fast 3D math and container template libraries.
- Directly reading from (compressed) archives. (.zip)
- Integrated fast XML parser.
- Unicode support for easy localisation.
