Ruport aka RubyReport is a pure Ruby report generation and formatting system.
It aims to prevent you from ever having to fight with the low level tasks of parsing data from various sources.
If youd like to build professional grade custom reports quickly and easily, Ruport is the system for you.
Ruport is reporting, the Ruby Way.
Enhancements:
- PDF Grouping alternative styles now render correctly.
- An issue with Renderer::Hooks causing silent failures was resolved.
- A conflict with the rdoc library was also fixed, as well as some other minor bugs.

Polyester is a widget style + kwin decoration both aimed to be a good balance between eye candy and simplicity.

OpenChronicle is a real world blogging application with basic functionality similar to websites such as Blogger, WordPress, LiveJournal and MySpace.
OpenChronicles purpose is to demonstrate how to use individual subsystems available as part of OpenSubsystems project when developing Java applications. It is an excellent learning resource for those who want to master the available subsystems or maybe just want to quickly lookup how to use some particular feature.
The detailed tutorials document every step of design and development process that is required to quickly create fully featured application that is portable and easily maintainable. Each successive version expands the previous one with desirable features that are implemented easily by integrating another available subsystem or some aspect of its functionality.
Enhancements:
- OpenChronicle is a comprehensive tutorial to development of Java applications using Open Core middleware abstraction layer.
- The tutorial walks the developer through the design and implementation of a real world blogging application.
- It describes how to easily implement the application data model, code persistence working with any of the supported databases, make the application work as a POJO or EJB using any of the supported J2EE application servers, and how to design a flexible, skinnable Web user interface with basic security features.

Knotview software is a crossing between a concept mapper, a wiki and a database. The main idea behind it is to split information into small chunks (knots) and make links between them.

Visual organisation is not enforced : links can be drawn arbitrarily. With Knotview, only the user decides how the information must be shown. Creating links pointing towards files or url is possible and make it very easy to gather scattered information into a single place. Knotview can be used as a powerful bookmark manager, a mind mapper, a small database, and much more.

What distinguishes Knotview from other concept- and mind-mapping software if the fact that it separates contents from appearance. A knot consist of a title, some arbitrary properties (e.g. urls) and an associated text. It is stored in a database (kdb) which does not include any displaying informations. Display is left to a client application, and saved in a separate file (kv).

This allows some useful behaviour, such as displaying several times the same knot, in the same application. Nothing preventsdoing the same with different applications : the same knot can be displayed in a graph, and simultaneously in a todo-list software. This last feature is still planned, unfortunately. A very important feature of knotview is the ability to show the same information differently, depending on the users needs. A todo-list will be shown in a list view widget, whereas a brainstorming needs a powerful graphical interface.

Each knot can be assigned one or more user-defined categories. This allows to set shorts of type to knots. As for now, only displayed knot color is affected, but much more can be done with this. A good example where this is useful is a dictionary. Nouns, verbs, adjectives can be affected different categories. Other categories can be used to distinguish between feminine and masculine (if applicable).

More examples are given in the tutorials.
