Wine is an Open Source implementation of the Windows API on top of X and Unix.
Think of Wine as a compatibility layer for running Windows programs. Wine does not require Microsoft Windows, as it is a completely free alternative implementation of the Windows API consisting of 100% non-Microsoft code, however Wine can optionally use native Windows DLLs if they are available. Wine provides both a development toolkit for porting Windows source code to Unix as well as a program loader, allowing many unmodified Windows programs to run on x86-based Unixes, including Linux, FreeBSD, and Solaris.
Main features:
Binary Compatibility
- Loads Windows 9x/NT/2000/XP, Windows 3.x and DOS programs and libraries
- Win32 compatible memory layout, exception handling, threads and processes
- Designed for POSIX compatible operatings systems (eg. Linux and FreeBSD)
- ``bug-for-bug compatibility with Windows
Graphics
- X11-based graphics allows remote display to any X terminal
- X11, TrueType (.ttf/.ttc) and Windows Bitmap (.fon) Fonts
- DirectX support for games (limited Direct3D support)
- Printing via PostScript driver or legacy native Win16 printer drivers
- Enhanced Metafile (EMF) and Windows Metafile (WMF) driver
- Desktop-in-a-box or mixable windows
- Windows MultiMedia (WinMM) layer support with builtin codecs
Allows Windows program to interface with:
- Sound devices via ALSA, OSS, ARTS, JACK, and libaudio etc
- Multi-lingual keyboards and CJK input method support via XIM
- Modems, serial devices
- Networks (TCP/IP and IPX)
- ASPI Scanners
- Windows Tablets via XInput (eg. Wacom)
Wine API
- Designed for source and binary compatibility with Win32 code
- Win32 API test suite to ensure compatibility
- Compilable on a wide range of C compilers
- Permits mixing of Win32 and POSIX code
- Permits mixing of ELF (.so) and PE (.dll/.exe) binaries in one address space
- Win32 compatible header files
- Automatically generated API documentation
- Resource compiler
- Message compiler
- IDL compiler
- extensive Unicode support
- Internationalization -- Wine supports 16 languages
- Built-in debugger and configurable trace messages
- External memory checker support using Valgrind
- Sample programs
Enhancements:
- Direct3D support on top of WGL instead of GLX for better portability.
- Many DirectSound fixes.
- Still more gdiplus functions.
- Many crypt32 improvements.
- Lots of bug fixes.

TkWiCe is a free wine cellar software. As it is written in native Tcl/Tk, youve got a real chance to use it on any operating system with that interpreter on it (you can get Tcl/Tk for any Unix like Mac OS X, Linux, *BSD, AIX, HP-UX or Solaris as well as for PowerPC and Windows).
If you want to get a fast overview about your bottles (perhaps youve got to choose one?), this might be what you are looking for.
If youre more interested in writing intellectual tasting notes take a wordprocessor like LyX or OpenOffice instead. And if 100 points are the most important thing to you, please choose other points of interest than wine (and bestow the saved money). Such things never will be added to this software:
Aims
- Focus is on pleasure, not on charts.
- Function conquers eyecandy.
- Own plain text files for each wine.
- Everything about one wine fits on 1024x768 pixel at once.
- Old computers are new enough.
- No more dependencies than Tcl/Tk (not: operating system).
- Free (means: liberty *and* free of charge).
- Dont replace wine literature (as commercial solutions try).
Enhancements:
- Bugfixes in startup, the cellar book/history window, and the country selection buttons in the main window.

IEs for Linux project is a simple Bash Script program that installs Internet Explorer 6, 5.5 and 5 on Linux using Wine. The whole process is automatic and very easy.
What is the magic?
The magic of IEs4Linux is to use full browsers downloads instead of using that boring install process. The script automatically downloads full versions of IE from the Evolt Browser Archive. Then installation is done completely behind the scenes! You dont need to click on anything to install IE6, IE5.5 and IE5 - with FlashPlayer 8!
Who is the target public?
WebDesigners that want to move to Linux but still need to test their sites on IE. The IEs installations are smaller than usual because they include only the necessary files to have a good test browser (there is no Outlook, Media Player etc). Please, dont use any of these IEs to navigate!! Get Firefox!
Whats New in 2.0.5 Stable Release:
- The mirror for downloading MSIE was changed.
Whats New in 2.5 Beta 6 Development Release:
- New: Kommander GUI finished (advanced dialog)
- New: IE7 proxy configuration hack (see below)
- Improved: download output
- Improved: other programs should find IE now (as Jim suggested here)
- Improved: all temp files now go to ~/.ies4linux/tmp to avoid complications
- Other bug fixes

BlogBridge project is for true info-junkies who want a better way to wrangle all their RSS feeds from blogs and news into one pretty cool organizer. But it is also for people who need to learn things on the fly and want to stay current on select topics -- from internet security to product innovation to wine. With BlogBridge you quickly get to enjoy the latest, best, and most relevant stuff without the distraction and blind alleys (fascinating though they may be) that characterize most Internet searches. BlogBridge is also free and open source!

Much more than a standard rss reader, BlogBridge allows you to create filters, agents, search, slice and dice the information so that only the most important and relevant information bubbles up to the top. With SmartFeeds you can create standing queries and build them into a funnel that delivers what you need to know on a silver platter. There is direct integration with other well known web services such as Technorati, del.icio.us, Flickr, and many others.

cutmp3 is a small and fast command line MP3 editor. cutmp3 lets you select sections of an MP3 interactively or via a timetable and save them to separate files without quality loss.
It uses mpg123 for playback and works with VBR files and even with files bigger than 2GB.
Other features are configurable silence seeking and ID3 tag seeking, which are useful for concatenated mp3s.
Playback is realized via mpg123, so be sure to have it installed or at least have a symlink to your favorite mp3 playing program.
I recommend a symlink to mpg321 which works better!
You can mark beginning and end of a segment with a and b and save the segment with s.
Using a timetable or direct times with VBR files delivers exact(!) results at the cost of slightly lower speed. cutmp3 even works with files bigger than 2 GB!
If you want a working graphical software you can try mp3directcut,
which runs fairly well in WINE after I asked the author about a WINEd version.
Installation:
make (you will need readline-devel or similar!)
install it to /usr/bin with
make install
Enhancements:
- A small fix for timetable cutting with negative values has been made.
- Another option for silence seeking has been added.
- The documentation has been updated.

saml-registry is a SAML 2.0 Metadata management tool that is useful for building shibboleth-based federations.

The saml-registry is a j2ee-application intended as a federation management tool, primarily (but not exclusively) for use with shibboleth. Future versions will support full delegation of rights through container-based role-management. The current version relies on container-based authentication.
For convenience the current version of the sql database schema and a jboss datasource descriptor sample can be found here on the right.

Installation instructions

Download the ear-file from the maven repository and drop it in the deploy-directory of your jboss application server. This build has been tested with jboss 4.0.2 but later versions should work.

You may need to disable certain features in a standard jboss, notably the jboss-ws4ee.sar (which conflicts with webservices provided by saml-registry) - just remove it from the deploy directory. Newer versions of jboss may ship with included versions of myfaces and jsf. These files must also be removed from your jboss before deploying saml-registry (or you must repackage the application excluding these libraries from the ear).

Next create a datasource-file for the mysql datastore. The < jndi-name/ > must be set to jdbc/saml-registry. Now create the database (update the datasource file with the server, username and password). Drop this file next to the ear in the deploy-directory. Use the sql schema to populate the database.

Finally configure authentication and authorization for saml-registry. This is done in the container by editing the login-config.xml (for jboss). Create a security domain called saml-registry in login-config.xml. The attached login-config.xml contains a sample entry which is based on property-files. The UsersRolesLoginModule is described on the jboss wiki.

The authorization for saml-registry is also managed by the security domain using standard j2ee role-based security. The roles govern access to individual use-cases (represented by menu entries in the user interface). Future versions will add per-organizational access control to this basic framework so that management of entities can be delegated.

The use-cases and roles is documented by this usecase diagram. Once your security-domain is configured to serve these roles (by editing property-files or whatever) you should be able to point your browser to https://your-box.example.com/saml-registry and get the main menu (or a login page depending on how your security domain was setup).

Building from source

In order to build saml-registry from source (which can be obtained from the subversion repository) you need maven2 and java5 to build the sources. The saml-registry is based on an MDA toolchain called andromda. Normally maven2 should download and install all dependencies, however the user interface needs the jsf2 cartridge from the andromda plugins project which may not be distributed from the andromda maven repository. If maven2 complains about unresolved dependencies for jsf2 then checkout the andromda plugins project and build it manually.
