Free from old software for linux

FreeMIS project is developing a free and better alternative to the commercial MIS products. All the FreeMIS files and data are stored on a web server, and the FreeMIS system is accessed via the Internet. Users simply need an Internet connection and a modern web browser (preferrably Firefox, but Internet Explorer 6 and Safari work fine).
Each user has a unique username and password, which grant them access to the system. At present, only teachers can access the system, but the design of FreeMIS is ready for access by any of the stakeholders in the school system - students, parents, governors etc.
At present, FreeMIS is used to write reports to parents on pupil progress. Using FreeMIS, teachers can write reports at a time and place of their own choosing. Some choose to write reports in school, but many now write their reports from home.
Main features:
- Password protected access, to ensure security of data.
- Web-based, so it can be accessed on any computer connected to the Internet, without the need for special software.
- Storage of pupil and staff data
- Storage of class enrollment and course data
- Production of reports to parents/guardians on pupil progress
- Monitoring of pupil progress through a tracking and target setting system, which includes the automatic generation of letters to parents/guardians
- Noting of unexplained absences, which automatically generates a warning email to the school office
The FreeMIS project aims to provide schools with a high quality alternative to the proprietary Management Information Systems that abound in schools in the UK and beyond.
We at the FreeMIS project believe that the best way to create a high quality MIS is to develop it as an Open Source project. This means that the system and the code from which it is built will always be freely available.
At present, FreeMIS only offers a subset of the functionality of a comprehensive MIS. Development is ongoing, however, and FreeMIS has stood the test of being used in a Scottish High School.
Becta has recently published a report highlighting the financial savings possible if schools move towards Open Source alternatives. FreeMIS aims to be part of the package that schools will adopt.

- Gave Heads of Faculties write access to all faculty reports

Kom stands for "Keep old mails". It imports emails in a MySQL database and provides a frontend in gtk2 to search and browse the archived emails. Some options can be used to incrementally import mails (do to it each month for example).

Kom project can also export mails stored in the database, in mbox format or one-message-per-file format, and generate some statistics.

System Monitor Theme that started out as a High-Tech one, then devolved into this low-tech broken typewriter version.

I love the chaotic nature of it.

This is my 1st theme, please critique!

Upgrade-oldest selectively upgrades a Debian system by upgrading the packages with the oldest and most significant version numbers. It can be limited to certain sections, and the level of version differece necessary to trigger an upgrade can be controlled.

It is a simple Python script, but it is very powerful.

Openglad project is a SDL port of the old (and recently open-sourced) DOS game Gladiator.

Openglad is an SDL port of an old DOS game called Gladiator, which was developed by FSGames in the mid 90s. It is a top-down gauntlet-style RPG in which you hire team mates, go on missions, and improve your team with the spoils you reap. It can be played by up to 4 players (using split-screen), and features many classes, special abilities, and a scenario editor.

WmConsole is a console server for Windows Mobile devices which listen over BlueTooth RFCOMM channels.

WmConsole allows the user to interact with the device using a commandline interface from a Linux or Windows workstation. You need the QTTY Linux/Windows client to access a WmConsole server.

XML::Diff is a Perl module for XML DOM-Tree based Diff & Patch Module.

SYNOPSIS

my $diff = XML::Diff->new();

# to generate a diffgram of two XML files, use compare.
# $old and $new can be filepaths, XML as a string,
# XML::LibXML::Document or XML::LibXML::Element objects.
# The diffgram is a XML::LibXML::Document by default.
my $diffgram = $diff->compare(
-old => $old_xml,
-new => $new_xml,
);

# To patch an XML document, an patch. $old and $diffgram
# follow the same formatting rules as compare.
# The resulting XML is a XML::LibXML::Document by default.
my $patched = $diff->patch(
-old => $old,
-diffgram => $diffgram,
);

This module provides methods for generating and applying an XML diffgram of two related XML files. The basis of the algorithm is tree-wise comparison using the DOM model as provided by XML::LibXML.

The Diffgram is well-formed XML in the XVCS namespance and supports update, insert, delete and move operations. It is meant to be human and machine readable. It uses XPath expressions for locating the nodes to operate on.
