Free foundation software for linux

libFoundation is an Objective-C library that provides an almost complete implementation of the OpenStep specification. libFoundation also has many other extensions that can be found in the Apples Mac OS X Foundation library.
Enhancements:
- This release works with the libobjc provided by GCC (3.0 and up), and has been ported to 64-bit platforms.
- A few minor bugs have been fixed, and support for OpenBSD has been improved.

The C++ Foundation Classes package contains a Fully Overloaded String object that works with other classes (even those not owned by CFC), a full (template) Matrix and Vector Object, some Data types like DateTime, Boolean, Integer, Real, and Complex, and Sets, Stack, Queues, etc. C++ Foundation Classes also has an LL-type Parser and Scanner for lexical reading.

Installation:

The simplest way to compile this package is:

1. `cd to the directory containing the packages source code and type `./configure to configure the package for your system. If youre using `csh on an old version of System V, you might need to type `sh ./configure instead to prevent `csh from trying to execute `configure itself.

Running `configure takes awhile. While running, it prints some messages telling which features it is checking for.

2. Type `make to compile the package.

3. Optionally, type `make check to run any self-tests that come with the package.

4. Type `make install to install the programs and any data files and documentation.

5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the source code directory by typing `make clean. To also remove the files that `configure created (so you can compile the package for a different kind of computer), type `make distclean. There is also a `make maintainer-clean target, but that is intended mainly for the packages developers. If you use it, you may have to get all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came with the distribution.

Team Foundation for Mono is an implementation of the Team Foundation libraries and related client programs for the Mono .Net platform. Team Foundation is a collection of collaborative technologies that support a team effort to deliver a product from Microsoft that includes bug tracking, source control, and other capabilities.
This project focuses currently on the SCM related libraries and tools. It includes a fairly functional version of the TF client used to access the SCM capabilities of Team Foundation servers. In some respects, its usability exceeds that of the standard TF tool. It also includes some subcommands from the TF Power Tool, and leverages the Gnome Keyring when available. Team Foundation does not do file attribute tracking, but the included TF client in this project leverages libmagic to implement file attribute tracking on unix platforms.
Team Foundation is tightly integrated into the Visual Studio platform. This project will hopefully someday include a MonoDevelop plugin as well as implementations of the other non-SCM related Team Foundation libraries.
For registered developers, CodePlex is a publicly accessible example of a Team Foundation server used to host open source projects.
Enhancements:
- This release adds the "tf shelvesets" command (brief output only), support for writable working folders, "tf help < cmd >" with display of valid options for each command, the "tf branches" command (limited testing), the "tf online < list of files >" option, the "tf diff /brief" option, support for "tf add /recursive < path >", 20 new test cases for the tf client program, a "tf help /list" helper for shell completion, a progress indicator for GetCommand when setting permissions, the History.StopAfter option, and many bugfixes.

GroundWork Foundation is a network management data abstraction layer and development platform written in Java.
With GroundWork Foundation, data from both open source tools and legacy management systems can be accessed via real time status views, reports and dashboards.
GroundWork Status Viewer, a user interface for Nagios, relies on Foundation technology to extract, process and display Nagios monitoring data. GroundWorks flagship product, GroundWork Monitor, also leverages Foundation technology to provide an enterprise-class, integrated IT monitoring solution.
Main features:
- Standardized User Interfaces and APIs: APIs available with GroundWork Foundation allow presentation layer programs to query the GroundWork Foundation database by object or data type. Separate API libraries are available for Perl, PHP and Java programs, enabling users to build their own custom user interfaces.
- Customizable Adapters: GroundWork Foundation allows for the development of adapters to integrate and normalize any type of monitoring data--whether SNMP, polled or log file data. Normalized data is stored in a common database for retrieval.
- Integration of Third Party Systems: Data from commercial monitoring systems can also be integrated into GroundWork Foundation, enabling IT staff to consolidate the best of open source and proprietary monitoring and management tools into a single application.

Autoconf project is an extensible package of m4 macros that produce shell scripts to automatically configure software source code packages.

These scripts can adapt the packages to many kinds of UNIX-like systems without manual user intervention. Autoconf creates a configuration script for a package from a template file that lists the operating system features that the package can use, in the form of m4 macro calls.

Producing configuration scripts using Autoconf requires GNU m4. You must install GNU m4 (version 1.4 or later) before configuring Autoconf, so that Autoconfs configure script can find it. The configuration scripts produced by Autoconf are self-contained, so their users do not need to have Autoconf (or GNU m4).

Apache Incubator project is the entry path into The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) for projects and codebases wishing to become part of the Foundations efforts.

All code donations from external organisations and existing external projects wishing to join Apache enter through the Incubator.

The Apache Incubator has two primary goals:

- Ensure all donations are in accordance with the ASF legal standards
- Develop new communities that adhere to our guiding principles

These are the primary mail utilities of the GNU system.

Specifically, this package contains a POP3 server, an IMAP4 server, and a Sieve mail filter. It also provides a POSIX mailx client and a collection of other tools.
