DB_cart Class is a MySQL shopping cart script that can be used with third party product catalogues and membership systems. The MySQL database structure is neutral to existing systems.
DB_cart Class can handle the shopping cart (add, update, and empty) and checkout process (set the shipment address and email the order).
For existing cart users, the shopping cart is still available upon the users next visit and is visible by checkout. The last option is configurable togther with a time period.
Enhancements:
- There are modifications and improvements inside the main class file, several examples, and the table structure has been extended.
- There two additional fields for the shipment values (name2 and address2).
- All messages are available in German, English, and Dutch.
- The standard text inside the email messages is in external files now; this content is parsed inside the improved email method.

Mono is a comprehensive open source development platform based on the .NET framework that allows developers to build Linux and cross-platform applications with unprecedented productivity. Monos .NET implementation is based on the ECMA standards for C# and the Common Language Infrastructure.

Sponsored by Novell the Mono project has an active and enthusiastic contributing community. Mono includes both developer tools and the infrastructure needed to run .NET client and server applications.

Mono includes a compiler for the C# language, an ECMA-compatible runtime engine (the Common Language Runtime, or CLR),and class libraries. The libraries include Microsoft .NET compatibility libraries (including ADO.NET, System.Windows.Forms and ASP.NET), Monos own and third party class libraries.Gtk#, a set of .NET bindings for the gtk+ toolkit and assorted GNOME libraries can be found in the later.

This library allows you to build fully native Gnome application using Mono and includes support for user interfaces built with the Glade interface builder. Furthermore, Monos runtime can be embedded into applications for simplified packaging and shipping. In addition, the Mono project offers an IDE, debugger, and documentation browser.

GPL Arcade Volleyball is an SDL remake of the old dos game Arcade Volleyball for several platforms (currently Linux, Windows, BeOS and Mac OS X are supported).

- themes support
- networking game
- more than 2 players games
- several configuration options

Why AV?

It is fun. Play it for awhile: it is simple, fast, it just catches on. Its silly -- yes -- but try and play it with friends. It takes 5 seconds to figure out how to play, and the funky physics somehow just appeals. You could see it as a party game; say youre throwing a party, youd have that sort of game in the middle of several drinks, projected on a large screen, to have people have fun, engage in tournaments and laugh all through the game. Just as youd have with, say, pong. You wouldnt play Warcraft or Flight Simulator in those situations, or would you. Even for a nerds party were talking about.

LPMtool project is a package management tool. At this time, LPMtool has been developed and tested on Linux. LPMtool could probably be ported to other platforms with a minimum of effort, but at this time no porting effort has been made.
LPMtool is capable of handling all package management chores for an entire Linux system by itself; but it can also play second fiddle alongside the existing system package manager.
LPMtool is not just a basic package manager, that merely keeps track of installed software. LPMtool includes tools for setting up web-based package repositories and publishing packages.
LPMtool publishes an efficient package repository on a web server. The package repository may contain different versions of the same software package built for different Linux distributions, and LPMtool will download the appropriate version, for the Linux distribution LPMtool is running on.
LPMtool aims to simply the task of distributing and installing software packages. Consider a complicated application that uses additional software components from third party sources. LPMtool eliminates the "dependency hell" of pouring through the softwares documentation looking for third party components the software depends on, and figuring out if you already have them installed, and if not where they must be downloaded from.
LPMtool downloads the required software components, automatically, after displaying the third party softwares URL and asking for permission to download the required software from it (of course, the third party components must also be built with LPMtool, in order for this to work).
LPMtool keeps a list of known repositories where software was installed from. A single command checks if newer versions of existing software packages are available, downloads them, and installs them.
Main features:
- A more flexible dependency model. New versions of a package can use a different architecture (such as updating an i686 package to an x86_64 package, or the other way around). Also, it is not necessary to "bump" a packages release after upgrading to a new version of the base Linux distribution. LPMtool knows to update packages built for a different (previous) Linux distribution even if the current distribution carries an older version of the package.
- No configuration files that require manual editing. All configuration settings are adjusted by command options.
- LPMtool includes a lot of documentation. This documentation includes everything needed to use LPMtool, and to set up web-pased package repositories to publish LPMtool packages on the web. This documentation also briefly discusses many internal LPMtool objects and algorithms.
- LPMtool includes a graphical front-end (requires Gnome and Python).
