Lucidium Application Platform project consists of a platform for the rapid and agile delivery of custom data/process application
ucidium is an application development environment in which fully featured, custom, Web-based data/process solutions can be delivered using little or no code. After describing your data model to the platform, it will automatically create powerful search, list, review, and update screens.
Skins can be customized using XSL, and complex actions can be added using JavaScript or Java. Any relational data model and process can be described and delivered.
Available ERP type modules include HR, Accounts, Logistics, Project Management, Case Log, and Document Management.
Main features:
- A platform upon which data driven applications can be configured and deployed.
- Cuts development cost, risk, complexity and effort.
- Is a proven open-source Java solution.

Untangle Gateway Platform is a Linux-based network gateway with pluggable modules for network applications like spam blocking, Web filtering, anti-virus, anti-spyware, intrusion prevention, VPN, SSL VPN, firewall, and more.
- Commercial-grade open source alternative to SonicWALL and WatchGuard
- 14 integrated apps - use one or all of them
- Runs on off-the-shelf hardware
Enhancements:
- A package of 5.0.1 as a VMware Virtual Appliance has been released.

Cross Platform Toolkit Library (xtklib) is a C++ based framework for highly object-oriented cross-platform programming.
In particular, the library provides a full abstraction layer between its API and the main services offered by the underlying operating system(Thread, processes,GUI,Filesystem,etc.) plus a set of generic utilities (Strings,Data structures,etc.).
Unlike other famous libraries, xtklib makes full use of all features of C++ like RTTI, Templates, Exceptions thus obtaining a strongly object-oriented design with a Java-like sensation.
The library is composed by two main modules: "Base" and "Widgets". The target operating systems are Windows and Unix(Linux and BSD in primis) with a plan to move also towards other systems.
Main features:
- Use of modern C++ - use of many powerfull features offered by modern C++ like exceptions,RTTI,templates and namespaces allows faster development,improves code readability,and reduces programming errors.
- Strong Object-Oriented design - designed to meet requirements of modern software industry: modularity, low coupling, high cohesion,information hiding. Design patterns and advanced class hierarchies are extensively used in all the library.
- Ease of use - Clean and intuitive programming interface with a Java-like sensation.
- Complete - Features supported includes:
- Basic services: Thread, Synchronization, Filesystem access, Processes, Networking.
- Advanced services: I/O Streams, Logging.
- Debugging tools: Stack tracing, Memory Leak detection.
- Gui widgets (Work in progress): Windows,Frames,Layout managers,common controls,advanced controls.
- Generic utilities: complete data structures framework, String class with unicode support.
- Full unicode support: native support to unicode, conversion to/from different charsets.
- And many others: the list is too much long to enumerate all minor but extremely usefull features.
- Cross Platform - Supports various systems and compilers.
- XTKlib is known to work under:
- Windows XP (x86)
- Visual C++ versions 7.1, 8.0
- MinGW32
- Linux (x86, x86_64)
- GCC 3.4
- Compatibility with other platforms and compilers are not excluded.(If you can compile/use xtklib with a non listed compiler/platform let us know about that, thanks)
- Fast - Although performance are not the main goal of this library (exceptions and RTTI have a tradeoff in this meaning), code agility and execution speed are often taken in consideration during development, thus leaving a performance advantage compared to interpreted programming languages(eg. Java,C#) or scripting languages(eg. Python,Ruby,Perl).
Enhancements:
- This is the first release with a working "Widgets" module, although it has only basic features.
- This release is provided for testing and development only.

SIMD Cross-platform headers is a cross- platform, cross-compiler, cross CPU C/C++ header collection that aids the creation portable vectorized (SIMD) C/C++ code.
SIMD Cross-platform headerst supports (or partially supports) x86 (MMX/SSE/SSE2) GCC and MSVC, PPC Altivec GCC and CodeWarrior, ARM GCC, and software-emulated SIMD.
NOTE: Code must be 16-byte aligned. Align to 16 when allocating memory.
X86/XSCALE (Intel) vs. PowerPC/MIPS
While the PowerPC and MIPS SIMD instructions take 2 source vectors and a destination vector, the Intel platforms only take a source and destination. Example:
PPC/MIPS can do:
C = A + B
X86 can only do:
A = A + B (or A+=B)
Code written either way will work on the X86, and still be faster than 387 math, but preserving the registers takes significant overhead (Disassemble the test program for an example. The prints preserve, the disassembly test does not.) For the fastest code between systems, write your SIMD math as the X86 expects, manually preserving SIMD variables.
At least GCC for PPC doesnt seem to have any issues figuring out how to deal with a source and destination memory address being the same.
Enhancements:
- Created file with some i386, GCC dialect

Pylon Application Platform is a free and open source platform for embedded applications.
Our mission:
- Our goal is to dominate the world.
- We consider Microsoft as our main competitor. The second our competitor is UAZ (Ulyanovsky Automobilny Zavod) which produces UAZ vehicles. That vehicle is just another way for user to be perfect.
- Pylon is designed by programmers and for programmers only.
- Pylons authors hate Java, Java applications, and Java programmers.
- Pylons authors like Apples creatures just a little bit.
- Pylons authors love Kubuntu.
- We decline any responsibility for any results of using Pylon.
- We do not recomend to use Pylon prior to version 0.2.0-alpha1 as a platform for Nuclear Power Plant control software.
- We do not recomend to use Pylon prior to version 0.5.0 as a platform for Automatic Washing Machine firmware.
- Pylon is a way to be perfect. Nothing more
Main features:
- Pylon is absolutely free either for commercial or for any other purpose.
- It is written in pure C and C++.
- It is for Linux only.
- It is a scriptable platform. That means that Pylon-based application will be scriptable. Pylon uses Forth as a scripting language.
- Pylon-based application is supposed to be a single thread application.
- Pylon provides a non-preemptive multitasking.

Keystone is a cross-platform, object oriented application framework which allows applications to be written to build on the target platforms of GNU/Linux and Win32 without modification of their source.
Keystone Application Framework implements several modern Web standards, including SVG graphics and the XUL user interface description language.
Enhancements:
- A significant development in this release is the optional use of the GDI+ (Win32) and CairoGraphics (Linux) rendering backends to render SVG content.
- In addition, support for SVG paths has been much improved with the ability to render bezier and elliptical segments.

Rhinote is a simple Python/Tkinter script which provides virtual "sticky-notes" on your desktop. Rhinote is handy for jotting down quick notes or holding copied text that you plan to paste elsewhere later.

Text can be cut, copied, and pasted; and notes can be saved (as plain text) and viewed and/or edited later, in Rhinote or any other text-editing application.

While many such applications exist for virtually all computing platforms, Rhinote is extremely simple, lightweight, and "keyboard-friendly."

CrossFTP for Firefox is a versatile Cross-Platform FTP client extension.
