The Plastic File System 1.11
The Plastic File System is a module for providing virtual file systems in user space. more>>
PlasticFS includes the following file systems:
chroot
The chroot filter may be used to simulate the effects of the chroot(2) system call, in combination with other filters.
dos
The dos filter may be used to simulate an 8.3 DOS file system.
log
The log filter may be used to transparently log file system access, similar to the strace command.
shortname
The shortname filter may be used to simulate file systems with shorter filenames.
smartlink
The smartlink filter may be used to expand environment variables in symbolic links, using the usual $name notation.
upcase, downcase, titlecase and nocase
The upcase filter to make file names appear to be in upper-case when listed. File names are case- insensitive when being opened, etc. The downcase filetr is similar, except it converts to lower-case, titlecase capitalizes, and nocase is simply case insensitive without altering the filenames.
viewpath
The viewpath filter may be used to make a set of directory trees look like a single directory tree. (Also known as a union file system.) All modifications take place in the first directory in the list.
Aka: union and translucent
Note: Filters may be piped from one to the next, forming powerful combinations.
PlasticFS is currently dependent on the implementation of the GNU C Library. It is self configuring using a GNU Autoconf generated configure script.
Enhancements:
- Build problem fixed.
Pixelpost 1.5

PyGCS 1.5.6
PyGCS is designed to be a VERY stripped down MUD-like chat-server that runs in a small amount of memory. more>>
1. PyGCS has a single "room" and no large database to keep in memory and on disk.
2. PyGCS has no embedded programming language
PyGCS is ideally meant to be a small multi-user real-time chat system for people who have a need to talk to more than one person at a time online. It fits somewhere in between the setup IRC uses and the MUCK/MUSH/MOO style of server.
You can use it at things like:
A central location for system administrators and other administrative people to discuss immediate problems with local networks, etc
- A personal place to talk with friends without loading down the machine its run on.
- A continuous backup for social type MUDs
The PyGCS server that I run is very regularly up for 70+ days at a time and usually goes down because of the host being rebooted.
Once you get the server installed and up-and-running, youll need a way to connect to the server. More specifically, youll need a client program to connect to the server. This topic isnt my problem :), but basically you have two options:
1. Raw telnet. (Already installed on almost any OS, but it is poor for this use because it doesnt seperate the servers output lines from your input (typed) lines.)
2. MUD Client. (You MAY have to compile it, but it gives you the benefit of seperating input and output as well as some sort of macro language possibly, etc).
Spin 1.5
Spin is a transparent threading solution for non-freezing Swing applications. more>>
Every non trivial GUI sooner or later encounters the problem of "freeze".
This annoying behaviour is experienced by users every time the application performs extensive calculations or blocks for network or disk I/O.
Spin offers a new approach for solving this problem.
It offers transparent thread handling with minimal impact on your application code.
Enhancements:
- Now built with Maven.

ModAssy 1.5.1
This is an advanced portable C++ library with 80 variations of the ASSERT macro, to add expressions, levels and optional actions. 48 are modular because they can also use Rich Boolies, allowing much more combinations than non-modular ASSERT macros. It is very flexible because it allows you to create custom loggers and assertion displayers, but you can also use the provided ones for Windows, wxWidgets or console applications. more>>
ModAssy - This is an advanced portable C++ library with 80 variations of the ASSERT macro, to add expressions, levels and optional actions. 48 are modular because they can also use Rich Boolies, allowing much more combinations than non-modular ASSERT macros. It is very flexible because it allows you to create custom loggers and assertion displayers, but you can also use the provided ones for Windows, wxWidgets or console applications. The loggers and displayers show extra information, like the date and time, the thread id, the current working directory, etc. and you can add infoprovider objects to ModAssy, to provide similar custom information.
It has eight basic assertions, that each have 16 variations, by adding four suffixes that add functionality.
It is very reliable and portable, as it has been tested with five different compilers (VC++ 6.0, .NET 2003, .NET 2005, gcc on Windows and Linux), with nearly all warnings enabled.
The Rich Boolies can do all kinds of checks and generate elaborate information:
* Relations between two objects: rbEQUAL, rbLESS, ...
* Bitwise comparisons: rbEQUAL_BITWISE, rbBITS_ON, rbBITS_OFF, ...
* Type checking (with RTTI): rbEQUAL_TYPES, rbHAS_TYPE, ...
* Working on ranges and containers: rbIN_RANGE, rbIN_RANGES, rbIN_CONTAINER, rbIN_CONTAINERS, ... These have an extra argument that tells what kind of check to do, e.g. Sorted, Compare, Has, Unique, ...
* String comparisons: rbSTRING, rbSTRING_BEGINS_WITH, rbSTRING_ENDS_WITH, rbSTRING_CONTAINS. These have an extra argument that tells what kind of check to do, e.g. case sensitive or not.
* Logical expressions: rbAND, rbOR, rbXOR. These can have Rich Boolies or plain boolean expressions as their arguments.
* Exceptions: rbEXCEPTION takes an exception as its argument, and uses the information in it.

AuthPG 1.5
AuthPG is a PostgreSQL Authentication Module. more>>
PostgreSQL Authentication Module (AuthPG) enables Apache to authenticate users with the information stored in PostgreSQL database. This module gets a username and password pair in the standard way or from a cookie, and you can choose your preferred method.
Usage:
There are two ways to use mod_auth_pg. The one is to make .htaccess file in the directory which requires user authentication, and the other is to edit httpd.conf.
.htaccess
Apache doesnt recognize .htaccess at default. You must edit httpd.conf to enable .htaccess. Open httpd.conf and you will find the line < Directory /any/path >. Between < Directory /any/path > and < /Directory > there is a line which starts with AllowOverride.
The value of this item should contain AuthConfig or All. Edit and save it. Now restart Apache or give the signal with kill to reload httpd.conf.
Open .htaccess in the directory requiring user authentication, and write whatever directives you need.
AuthName my_auth
AuthType Basic
AuthPGHost my.database.server
AuthPGDatabase my_db
AuthPGUserTable user_table
require valid-user
If you specify the name of host after AuthPGHost directive, Apache will try to connect to PostgreSQL using internet domain socket, which means you should run postmaster with -i option, and edit configuration file to allow this type of access. When omit AuthPGHost directive, postmaster and httpd should run on the same machine.
Consult mod_auth_pg.html for the usage of each directive.
snif 1.5.2
snif is a project which creates simple and nice directory listings. more>>
snif (simple and nice index file) is a single PHP file that creates a nice directory listing of whichever directory you put it in.
Translations are available for English and German, and others can be added very easily.
Snif does not require any other files or special installation, and supports file and directory descriptions, sub-directories, sorting, automatic thumbnails, file icons, directory splitting, and hidden files wildcards.

Glom 1.5.2
Glom allows you to design database table definitions and the relationships between them. more>>
The design is loosely based upon FileMaker Pro, with the added advantage of separation between interface and data. It attempts to provide a simple generic framework sufficient to implement most database applications. These systems normally consists of lots of repetitive, unmaintainable code.
Glom-specific data such as the relationship definitions is saved in the Glom document. Glom re-connects to the database server when it loads a previous Glom document. The document is in XML format.
Glom uses the PostgresSQL database backend but it can not edit databases that it did not create, because it uses only a simple subset of Postgres functionality.
mod_cplusplus 1.5.4
mod_cplusplus is a C++ wrapper around apache-2.0. more>>
Easily implement object oriented apache-2.0 handlers with C++ including all the standard phases of the request cycle, input filters, output filters, and protocol handlers.
This is a big improvement for a number of reasons:
- C++ modules now only need pure C++, with no kludges to allow apache hooks to invoke C++ methods.
- All request phases and filtering phases are exposed cleanly through object oriented method invocations.
- The core structures (e.g. request_rec) are objectified to encapsulate functionality and provide a clean api.
- Because mod_cplusplus only instanciates your objects once per server, you can easily cache re-used data in the object and all requests to that child will benefit.
Simply subclass from the included baseclasses (e.g. ApacheHandler) and implement whichever phases of the request you are interested in (e.g. check_user_id()) and point mod_cplusplus at it in the config file. No need to hack your own module structure to proxy calls to your objects.
Squishdot 1.5.0
Squishdot project is a Slashdot-like weblog application based on Zope. more>>
SquishDot is a web-based news publishing and discussion product for the
Z Object Publishing Environment (ZOPE). It allows you to build a web-based
news site along with the capability to handle threaded discussions with
