eTcl is a "batteries-included", thread-enabled Tcl/Tk runtime, available as a single standalone executable. eTcl includes several popular extensions (Sqlite, Thread, Zlib, ...), together with a Tcl wrapper for the Pixane image processing library.
Installation:
Just copy executable wherever you want on your device (memory or storage card), and launch it.
- Unobstrusive executable. No registry to set, no external dependencies.
- Standalone executable. Tcl and Tk scripts packed into executable (using VFS). Optimized startup time.
New Tcl user experience on PocketPC
- Optimized for XScale devices
- Faster Arc/Chord/Pie emulation, improved for ARM architecture without FPU
- Efficient WSAAsyncSelect() emulation. Sockets, and fileevents on sockets, should be fully functionnal (in both client and server modes)
- Support for native menu
- Improved native look and feel.
- Windows Mobile specific extension: manage SIP, change (X) button action (closing Correct handling of mouse (actually touchscreen) events
- Support for intercepting hotkeys (calendar, notes, etc...)
- New porting approach, based on very minor changes to generic Win32 port (and no changes to generic part of Tcl/Tk distrib).
- Patch to Tcl or Tk distribution is only few kilobytes large, everything else has been moved into a minimal emulation library. This should allow us to keep synced with future Tcl/Tk release.
- Easy build process. Nothing but Evc4 and a native Tcl interpreter required to build binaries for all target architectures supported by Evc (Cygwin, external libraries, etc... not required)

JCards project is a free Java application designed to store and manage data in any format that the user defines. Instead of having multiple applications to manage passwords, music databases, shopping lists, etc.
JCards allows the user to define a database that contains the fields they want and to customise it in many ways. This is all accomplished via an easy to use interface that requires no understanding of SQL or any other database jargon; in effect JCards is a front-end on to a flat-file database.
JCards was initially developed to run on a Sharp Zaurus SL-5x00 PDA, but will also run on any PocketPC PDA that has a JVM installed.
Main features:
- Define multiple databases
- Define the fields that you want
- Define categories (drop down lists)
- Counters
- Calculated fields
- Defaults
- Set fields to view in the list
- Encrypt your data using Blowfish
- Search on any field
- Sort on any field
- Import/export CSV files
- Date fields can be prepopulated with todays date
- Quick view of categories

GPAC is an implementation of the MPEG-4 Systems standard (ISO/IEC 14496-1) developed from scratch in ANSI C.
The main development goal is to provide a clean (a.k.a. readable by as many people as possible), small and flexible alternative to the MPEG-4 Systems reference software (known as IM1 and distributed in ISO/IEC 14496-5). The MPEG-4 Reference software is indeed a very large piece of software, designed to verify the standard rather than provide a small, production-stable software.
GPAC is written in ANSI C for portability reasons (embedded platforms and DSPs) with a simple goal: keep the memory footprint as low as possible.
The second development goal is to achieve integration of recent multimedia standards (SVG/SMIL, VRML, X3D, SWF, etc) into a single framework. This stage is still under drafting but has started with VRML97 support.
GPAC already features 2D and 3D multimedia playback, MPEG-4 Systems encoders/multiplexers and publishing tools for content distribution.
GPAC is licensed under the GNU General Public License (see FAQ).
The current GPAC release (0.2.3) already covers a very large part of the standard, and features what can probably be seen as the most advanced and robust 2D MPEG-4 Player available worldwide, as well as a decent 3D MPEG-4/VRML player with some X3D support.
GPAC is currently running under Windows, Linux platforms - WindowsCE/PocketPC platform is not actively maintained but GPAC 0.2.3 is running on an iPaq device.
Main features:
- MP4 and 3GPP file reading, both local and through http download (QuickTime FastStart).
- MP3 (local and http) and ShoutCast.
- AAC file reading and AAC http streaming (needs latest faad2 cvs tarball).
- Media Codecs: MPEG-4 Visual Simple Profile, MPEG-4 Audio AAC, JPEG, PNG, AMR audio and all codecs supported by the FFMPEG library (including AVC/H264).
- All media containers supported by the FFMPEG library: avi, mpeg, vob, etc...
- Xiph.org Media: Ogg file format (including http read and Icecast), Vorbis audio and Theora video.
- 3GPP Timed Text / MPEG-4 Streaming Text.
- Streaming support: RTP and RTSP/SDP for MPEG-4 Visual/Audio, MPEG-1/2 audio and video, 3GPP timed text, AMR audio and H263 video.
- Multichannel audio, multichannel to stereo mapper.
- MPEG-4 scenes (2D, 3D and mixed 2D/3D scenes) - read from binary format (BIFS) and textual format (BT/XMT-A).
- VRML 2.0 (VRML97) scenes (without GEO or NURBS extensions).
- X3D scenes (not complete) - supports both X3D (XML format) and X3DV (VRML format).
- JavaScript support for MPEG4/X3D/VRML.
- Compressed description (GZip) supported for all textual formats of MPEG4/X3D/VRML.
- Simple SVG scenes (not complete).
- Simple SWF (Macromedia Flash) scenes (no ActionScript, no clipping, etc).
- HTTP reading of all scene descriptions.

XMMS-Control provides a Web-based control for XMMS.
XMMS-Control is a web-based interface for the XMMS (X MultiMedia System). XMMS is an MP3 player for Linux based systems (it also plays other media formats).
XMMS-Control is a graphical interface for the command-line utility XMMS-Shell.
Using XMMS-Control, you can control the music playng from an XMMS equipped machine from any PC on the network, including wireless laptops/PDAs!!!
Imagine being out in the pool and being able to control the music with an 802.11b based PocketPC using a browser! You can do it with XMMS-Control!
XMMS-Control has an interface for standard PCs (desktops/laptops), as well as a mobile/PDA formatted interface, for smaller screens!!!
In addition, XMMS-Control can itself be controlled via other programs (i.e., custom interfaces) using the XMMS-Control API/Hooks program! You can tie XMMS-Control into a larger system via this method.
Lets say youre creating a system for whole-house automation, and you wish to use ONE consistent interface. Well, with the XMMS-Control API/Hooks, you can!!!
Enhancements:
- Some major bugfixes... should work MUCH BETTER on most platforms that had problems before. If you had problems getting XMMS-Control installed and running, please try this new version! Please read the new installation entries in the manual!!!
- More detailed installation instructions for getting XMMS-Shell up and running (including V0.99) in the README & manual.
- Directories are now SORTED alphabetically on the file chooser screen (previously was unsorted).
- Should handle MP3 lists with file names and ID3 tags containing commas much better now (previously when a comma was encountered, the list was off by one, the name would get split, and the second half would go to the next line).

NetXMS is new and rapidly developing monitoring system, released under GPL2 license. NetXMS project can be used for monitoring entire IT infrastructure, starting with SNMP-capable hardware (like switches and routers) and ending with applications on your servers. NetXMS is an extremely reliable and powerful monitoring system, enabling you to improve your network availability and service levels.
The system has three-tier architecture: the information is collected by monitoring agents (either our own high-performance agents or SNMP agents) and delivered to monitoring server for processing and storing. Network administrator can access collected data using Windows-based Management Console, WEB Interface or Management Console for PocketPC.
Having been designed with flexibility and scalability in mind, NetXMS features a wide range of supported platforms, leaving you the freedom of choice of platform(s) for your network. NetXMS Server, the core system, is currently available for Windows NT/2000/2003/XP, Linux, Solaris and FreeBSD.
High-performance modular monitoring Agents are available for the same platforms as well as for OpenBSD, NetBSD, NetWare, HP-UX and AIX. NetXMS currently supports the following databases: MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL and Oracle. Due to the modular structure of the system, support for other SQL databases can be added upon request in a matter of days.
Main features:
- NetXMS allows monitoring network devices, servers and applications from one management server
- Configuration and access to monitoring data take place through the user-friendly and customizable Windows-based GUI
- NetXMS ability to send e-mails and SMS notifications, or execute external programs as a reaction to any event, enables you to receive warning notifications based on collected values
- Ability to organize monitored objects into hierarchical structure to represent service dependencies
- Centralized agent upgrade
- Layer 3 IP topology autodiscovery
- Portable client library
- Very flexible event processing
- Remote actions
- Flexible access control configuration
Enhancements:
- This is mostly a bugfix release.
- Multiple compatibility problems were fixed (mostly on FreeBSD and OpenSolaris).
- Web interface stability was improved.
- Support for non-English Windows versions was added to the winperf subagent.

PhysicsFS is a library to provide abstract access to various archives. It is intended for use in video games, and the design was somewhat inspired by Quake 3s file subsystem. The programmer defines a "write directory" on the physical filesystem. No file writing done through the PhysicsFS API can leave that write directory, for security. For example, an embedded scripting language cannot write outside of this path if it uses PhysFS for all of its I/O, which means that untrusted scripts can run more safely.
Symbolic links can be disabled as well, for added safety. For file reading, the programmer lists directories and archives that form a "search path". Once the search path is defined, it becomes a single, transparent hierarchical filesystem.
This makes for easy access to ZIP files in the same way as you access a file directly on the disk, and it makes it easy to ship a new archive that will override a previous archive on a per-file basis. Finally, PhysicsFS gives you platform-abstracted means to determine if CD-ROMs are available, the users home directory, where in the real filesystem your program is running, etc.
You can find PhysicsFS in next :

Sync4j is a mobile application server, and more. Sync4j includes a suite of tools to develop, deploy and manage any mobile project. It is a certified implementation of the Open Mobile Alliance Data Synchronization and Device Management protocols (OMA DS and DM, formerly known as SyncML).
Sync4j reached more than 19,000 downloads in a single month and it is supported by one of the largest mobile developers community in the world.
Main features:
- Sync4j Server: a mobile application server with connectors to SQL relational databases, Microsoft Exchange, Lotus Domino and SugarCRM.
- Sync4j Clients: applications for Outlook, Windows Mobile PocketPC, BlackBerry, Palm and iPod that you can use to synchronize your PIM data (address book and calendar) with the server
- Sync4j Email Gateway: a POP, IMAP and SMTP gateway, to support your mobile email needs.
- Sync4j Software Development Kit: tools to develop sometimes-connected mobile applications on devices (in Java - J2SE and J2ME - and C++) and to add data sources to the server
- Sync4j Device Management: an OMA DM server to remotely manage mobile devices
A wireless application needs data. The information must be available even when the device is off-line. Synchronization between multiple mobile devices and corporate servers is a fundamental component in every wireless project: data is supposed to be consistent when accessed by multiple users who are not always connected to the network.
Once a wireless application is developed, it needs to be transferred to a remote device, over-the-air. Then, it must be kept up-to-date. Application provisioning is pivotal for the success of any mobile project.
Developers of applications around the world have been looking for a platform that would make it easier to create mobile applications. IT Managers are struggling with PIM synchronization and mobile email deployments, locked by commercial vendors on a spiraling high cost structure and unable to manage a fast growing fleet of mobile devices. Sync4j is the solution they are looking for.
Open source means freedom from vendor lock-in and high quality software (thousand of eyes on the code, an enourmous community effort for testing). Sync4j is well supported by the community and the company behind it, Funambol.
Sync4j is an open source complete and unique mobile application server, addressing all the aspects of the equation:
- data synchronization, including PIM and email
- application provisioning
- device management
Sync4j is multi-device and multi-platform, running both in Windows and Linux. It runs on Tomcat and on top of J2EE application servers. It has been designed for carrier-grade deployments.
Since day one, scalability and reliability have been a clear focus of the Sync4j architecture, Sync4j is built on the Open Mobile Alliance data synchronization and device management standards (OMA DS and DM, formerly known as SyncML), thus leveraging the availability of SyncML clients pre-installed on cellular phones (such as all Symbian, Nokia, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, Siemens and others). For devices where a SyncML client is missing, Sync4j provides its own clients: Outlook, Windows Mobile PocketPC, BlackBerry, Palm and iPod.
Sync4j target market is everyone looking to build, deploy and manage a mobile project:
- Developers who need to extend an existing product to the mobile world or are looking for an easy way to create new mobile applications, grabbing data from existing data sources (such as SQL databases, Exchange, Domino or SugarCRM) or adding new data sources.
- IT Managers that want to deploy a PIM and mobile email solution or just need a way to manage a fleet of mobile devices.
- Device Manufacturers, that are looking for an OMA DM or DS client.
