Dominions 2 : The Ascension Wars is a strategy war game for Linux.
Too long have you been confined to this mortal realm. Too long have you been denied what should rightfully be yours. Are you not a god? Should you not be the One True God of this miserable dirtball? Yet there are others that dare challenge your authority.
Pretenders to the throne, with their false priests and prophets. These miserable creatures that have the audacity to impugn your rightful place in the cosmos! But you will show them, wont you? Gather your armies, raise your fortifications, and let loose the dogs of war! The time has come to assume your proper position, to crush your enemies beneath your boots and take what is meant for you.

Acting as a pretender god leading one of seventeen different nations, players will strive to become the one true god through the power of spell and steel.

A strategy game like no other, in Dominions 2 if you can think of it as a player, you can probably do it within the game. Destined to become a classic, and one that will surely remain on your hard drive long after most games have been uninstalled!
Main features:
- Epic turn-based fantasy gameplay. Up to seventeen people can play at once thanks to the simultaneous turn structure. For those who would rather play solo the computer opponents put up fierce competition for those 3 AM gaming sessions.
- All new graphics in the sequel. The interface has been overhauled and streamlined, the map looks like it could be found in the front of your favorite fantasy novel, and the battle scenes are now in three-dimensional glory.
- New map filters that help players instantly assess the world situation. Easily locate fortress locations, temples, or how far your dominion stretches. Additionally, the map is zoomable.
- A nice twist on mercenaries: mercs up for recruitment are available to all players and will only end up fighting for the cause of the highest bidder.
- While every fantasy strategy game has the concept of heroes in Dominions 2 heroes really need to depend on being heroic. The top ten commanders will enter into the Hall of Fame, where they will be bestowed various heroic abilities. The longer they can stay in the Hall of Fame, the more kudos are awarded.
- Taking the sword to your opponents is similar to a good wargame. Morale losses can lead to routs and assassinating the enemy commander is a nicely proven formula for success. Magic and the power of your would-be god also plays a huge part in battle and you can even commit battlefield summonings.
- A cornucopia of creatures, items, and spells. The item manual weighs in at 71 pages, while the spell book is a massive 88 pages long.
- The amount one can do in one turn is staggering. Just check out these phases in the turn: recruit, research, empowerment, forge, rituals, magic battles, search, prayers, blood hunt, luck, assassinations, friendly movement, movement, storm castle, enchantments, magic items, sneak, build, special orders, income, starvation, upkeep, dominion, site effects, heal, mercs, and scouting.
- More nations to play than the original Dominions! More units, more monsters, and more spells!

- Easy to grasp, gamers will enjoy creating new maps for the game with the included map editor.
- Playable on all the major operating systems: Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and Solaris.

DB Visual ARCHITECT (DB-VA) offers software developers an excellent solution for database applications development. DB Visual ARCHITECT is an Object-Relational Mapping tool which provides an easy-to-use environment bridging between object model, data model and relational database.
DB-VA not only empowers you the visual modeling capability for performing both logical and physical data design, but also automates the roundtrip mapping between object model and data model.
Developers save enormous amounts of time using DB-VA to manage the coding of SQL and JDBC transparently with Plain Old Java Objects (POJO), as DB Visual ARCHITECT empowers software designers to perform roundtrip engineering of a relational database into a Class Diagram, and to an Entity Relationship Diagram and vise versa. Likewise designers can also create a database from entity relational models or class models visually on the fly.
DB-VA also generates a cost-effective, reliable, scalable and high-performance object to relational mapping layer. The generated mapping layer includes the support of transaction, cache and other optimized features. DB-VA increases the productivity and significantly reduces the risks of developing the relational mapping layer manually.
Main features:
Automate the Mapping Between Java Objects to RDBMS Tables
DB Visual ARCHITECT helps mapping between Java objects to relational database. This act not only preserves the data, but also the state, foreign/primary key mapping, difference in data type and business logic. Developers are no longer necessary to handle those tedious tasks.
Re-engineering Application Based on Legacy Database
DB Visual ARCHITECT allows you to reverse database (DB Reverse) tables through JDBC into UML models. You can form Class Diagram from the reversed models and redesign the legacy database without pain.
Multiple Database Support
DB Visual ARCHITECT promote easy migration between databases by enabling the same set of ORM Java objects to serve different databases. Besides, the tool help transforming proprietary data-type into one that suit the default database which is specified by user.
Well Proven Visual Modeling Technology
DB Visual ARCHITECT inherits the visual modeling environment from Visual Paradigm for UML, a well-known UML CASE Tool that provides intuitive inline editing for both Class Diagram and ERD. This truly what-you-see-is-what-you-get diagram editing facility reduces the effort and time in design the system.
Enhancements:
- A branch and tag capability was introduced to the VP Teamwork Server, Subversion, and CVS repository integration.
- With advanced branch and tag support, different modeling projects can run in parallel while keeping the release quality project stable in the trunk.
- There are also a number of enhancements for various other features.

Test management is a complex and time consuming task. In the U.S. alone, software errors cost the U.S. economy 59.5 billion dollars a year. A robust test management strategy can save you a fortune, poor test management can cost even more.
Test teams gather information from a variety of sources and need to share it between various parties. However, this task is often hindered since testers typically have little time and resources. They need a simple test management system to quickly capture product features, write tests and publish results.
Currently many companies resort to homegrown test management solutions based on generic office products. These systems can be error prone and rely on the test teams discipline to ensure all test information is recorded accurately and analysed fully. Much time is wasted tracking down inconsistencies between documents and collating results into reports. Many companies are now realizing the benefits of using a test management system.
DigitalTester provides an intuitive test management framework with which to capture requirements, write tests and generally organize testing. The project is completely web based and all information is held centrally on the DigitalTester server allowing information to be shared easily.
DigitalTesters reports and charts make it easy for management to judge a products market readiness. DigitalTester encourages structured test management by enabling testers to categorize a products features using a familiar tree structure. This familiar interface allows even new users to become productive in just a short time.
Main features:
- capture requirements
- write tests
- organize testing into logical units of work
- schedule testing tasks
- track results
- publish reports
Version restrictions:
