Free matter software for linux

Grey Matter is a CGI-based logging application suitable for a variety of purposes, mainly blogging. The project doesnt require a backend database and features a very flexible template system, as well as a karma and comment system.
Enhancements:
- Continuing code refactoring, with small admin UI enhancements such as paging on very long screens.
- Contains security enhancements and bugfixes as well.

mod_filter allows you to filter output from other modules inside of Apache. This allows you to implement filters (think Swedish Chef, jive, etc.).

You can also use it to retailer output for your locale. This works with HTML documents, mod_perl, PHP, JServ, CGIs, and for that matter just about any sort of custom handler you might have.

XML::XMLWriter is a Perl module for creating a XML document object oriented with on the fly validating towards the given DTD.

Example Code

#!/usr/bin/perl

use XML::XMLWriter;

my @data=([Name, Adress, Email, Sex],
[Herbert, BeerAvenue 45, herbert@names.org, Male],
[Anelise, SchmidtStreet 21, foo@bar.com, Female],
[XYZ, ZYX, ZY, XZ],
[etc...]);

my $doc = new XML::XMLWriter(system => http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd,
public => -//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN);

my $html = $doc->createRoot;
$html->head->title->_pcdata(A Table);
my $body = $html->body;
$body->h1->_pcdata(Here is a table!);
my $table = $body->table({align => center, cellspacing => 1, cellpadding => 2, border => 1});
for(my $i=0; $itr;
foreach $_ (@{$data[$i]}) {
$i==0 ? $tr->th->_pcdata($_) : $tr->td->_pcdata($_);
}
}
$body->b->_pcdata("thats it!");
$doc->print();

XMLWriter is a Perl 5 object class, its purpose is to make writing XML documents easier, cleaner, safer and standard conform. Its easier because of the object oriented way XML documents are written with XMLWriter. Its cleaner because of the simple but logical API and its safe and standard conform because of the automatically done checking against the the DTD.

But still: it might be a matter of taste whether one finds XMLWriter usefull or not and it probably has some bugs (i would appreciate a lot if you report them to me), many usefull features are missing, not implemented or not even thought of and perhaps the API with all its simpleness might be confusing though. So please tell me your opinion and tell me the way how you would make XMLWriter better. Its not so easy to develop a good API for this matter.

XMLWriter contains 3 packages: XMLWriter.pm which gives you the document object, Element.pm which provides the element/tag objects and PCData.pm which represents the parsed character data the document contains. Therell probably come more objects in feature releases. The most interesting class is Element.pm. It provides some methods you can call on every document element, but besides those methods it uses the AUTOLOAD feature of perl to expect every not known method name to be the name of a tag that should be added to the list of child tags of the element the method is called on. So calling $html->head will simply add a new element (the head element) to the list of child tags of the html element. The head object is returned. Have a look at the examples for better understanding. You should also read the POD of Element.pm and PCdata.pm.

CMS RSS Grabber is a system that grabs RSS feeds and fills the content of a CMS system. In other words, CMS content syndication through RSS
It is built in such a flexible way that it doesnt matter which CMS system it connects to. Settings inside the script let you define how you access the database.
Enhancements:
- An option to strip the http:// from the URL that is being exported to CMS.
- Usage is [$url=nohttp$].
- A CMS authors query is added to CMS Settings.
- Selection of author that adds content can be inserted with the [$authorid$] variable.
- Misc. variables for dates and time are added.
- An installation script is added for easy install.
- Settings for WordPress CMS are added.
- The ImportCMS() function didnt include the prefix to the feeddata table, imports to Joomla gave double texts in articles and the URLs had double http:// in them, and CMS update error messages were shown before logging into the system.
- These issues have been fixed.

KeyCluster is a high availability (HA) system for mission critical applications running on Solaris (Sparc and x86), Linux, and AIX.
The project guarantees service availability and data access, switching services between machines in case of software or hardware failures in a matter of seconds.
Enhancements:
- The name to was changed KeyCluster and almost all of it was rewritten.
- Built-in support for DRBD and a KeySharing kit based on a shared USB SecureKey to store services status were added.

JumpBox vTiger CRM project is a JumpBox virtual appliance with a pre-configured installation of the vTiger CRM system.

Once upon a time, in the raw and exciting days when automobile technology was in its infancy, taking a road trip meant bringing a mechanic along to fix the car every time it broke down. At JumpBox we look at the current state of IT systems and see great similarity with the early automobile.

Today, if you want to deploy and run a server based application you need a mechanic to come along to keep it running. With the automobile, as time passed, the technology improved, cars became vastly more reliable and many more people were able to take to the road.

With JumpBox we’re looking to do the same for server based software. We simplify what has traditionally been complex and deliver server based Open Source applications to an audience that otherwise would be put off by the technical burdens of the old way of doing things.

An integrated software stack in a virtual appliance

A JumpBox bundles the operating system, application and all application dependancies into a single installable module that’s easily deployed using virtualization software from VMWare, Parallels or Xen

Easy to Install

A JumpBox allows you to install a complex server based application without having to know anything about Linux, databases or the command line. You just download, extract the archive and open the application with your virtualization software. Further setup and configuration is handled through a simple web interface.

Simple to manage

The JumpBox platform is pre-configured, tuned and secured to minimize the management needs of the application.

Runs anywhere

Mac OS X, Linux, Windows it doesn’t matter. Thanks to the use of virtualization, JumpBox applications run easily on all the most popular operating systems.

Painless to upgrade

With a JumpBox and the JumpBox Assurance program (launching Q2 2007), management of the system is simple and efficient. Updates to the entire software stack are handled automatically by the platform with minimal user interaction.

Quick to move

With a JumpBox all the application code, data and the runtime are bundled together into a single directory that can easily be moved between systems or even across platforms. This allows you to start using an application by just running it on your desktop. Then when you’re ready you can open it up to the rest of the network and either continue running it on your desktop or easily move it to the server at any time. It doesn’t even matter if the server is running a different operating system, with a JumpBox everything is self contained.

No matter if the selected word is a plural, conjugated verb, etc., the translator realizes about the right word showing you its meaning.

DTI stands for Diffusion Tensor Imaging and is a magnetic resonance imaging method that can be used to measure local information about the structure of white matter pathways within the human brain. Combining DTI data with the computational methods of MR tractography, neuroscientists can estimate the locations and sizes of nerve bundles (white matter pathways) that course through the human brain. DTI-Query allows neuroscientists to place and interactively manipulate box-shaped regions (or volumes of interest) to selectively display pathways that pass through specc anatomical areas.
Enhancements:
- Improved support for tensor data formats. (Now supports 5D tensor files, and arbitrary ordering of tensor indices.) Has been tested with tensor image files output by the AFNI tools: http://afni.nimh.nih.gov/sscc/dglen/DTIQuery
- Support for Mac OS X (Carbon)
- Binaries released for Windows, Linux (32- and 64-bit), and MacOS X (PPC and Intel)
- Added choice of integration method (Eulers method, Runge Kutta 2nd order, Runge Kutta 4th order) for STT tracking.
- Improved support for reading NIFTI background images (correctly handles q-form/s-form matrices).
- Can now save visible pathways (as a binary format, or as a NIFTI mask image).
- Many minor GUI enhancements and bug-fixes.
