Changes: This release adds support for Python 2.6, and fixes one minor bug where hooks were not being run for built-in modules.
About: hslogger is a logging framework for Haskell, roughly similar to Python's logging module. hpodder lets each log message have a priority and source be associated with it. The programmer can then define global handlers that route or filter messages based on the priority and source. hslogger also has a syslog handler built in. Changes: Added compatibility with GHC 6.10 and support for the XML Java logger.
About: SHOGUN is a machine learning toolbox whose focus is on large scale kernel methods and especially on Support Vector Machines (SVM). It provides a generic SVM object interfacing to several different SVM implementations, all making use of the same underlying, efficient kernel implementations. Apart from SVMs and regression, SHOGUN also features a number of linear methods like Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), Linear Programming Machine (LPM), (Kernel) Perceptrons, and algorithms to train hidden Markov models. SHOGUN can be used from within C++, Matlab, R, Octave, and Python. Changes: This release contains several cleanups and bugfixes. It implements a general kernel normalizer that can be attached to kernels via set_normalizer() in the modular and set_kernel_normalization in the static interfaces. This fixes a long standing bug in the WeightedDegreePositionStringKernel normalization, but also breaks compatibility for a few kernels. This release integrates the Oligo string-kernel, and adds distances BrayCurtis, ChiSquare, Cosine, and Tanimoto. It supports Intel MKL on 32-bit architectures. It fixes compilation when Atlas/Lapack is not available.
About: xmlroff is a fast, multilingual, multi-platform XSL formatter that transforms XSL-FO documents (or any XML with an appropriate XSL stylesheet) into PDF or PostScript.

About: Open HPI is an open source project created to provide an open implementation of the SA Forum's Hardware Platform Interface (HPI). It provides a universal interface for Platform Management, including hardware sensor monitoring and control. Changes: This new release enables redundant domains with multiple daemon connections. The new design converts a daemon into a single domain. Additionally, each client will be able to connect to multiple daemons. So the client, in order to connect to multiple domains, will have to know about them through a client configuration file. It will then connect to the specified domain through a connection to the daemon corresponding to that domain.
About: Subversion is a version control system. Originally designed to be a compelling replacement for CVS in the open source community, it has far exceeded that goal and seen widespread adoption in both open source and corporate environments. The Subversion project produces Subversion's core libraries (written in C), a fully functional command line client (svn), repository administration programs, API bindings for various languages (Perl, Python, Java, Ruby, etc.), and various additional tools and scripts.
About: Code Browser is a folding and outlining editor. It is a lightweight but powerful tool for structuring and browsing source code using folders and links. It is especially designed to keep a good overview of the code of a large project. Changes: Files are now automatically unloaded when they are no longer used. This release also fixes several Unicode-related bugs.
About: BashStyle-NG is a graphical tool for changing Bash's behavior and look and feel. It can also style Readline, Nano, and Vim. Changes: This release adds new options to VimCFG (incremental searching, displaying of line number, auto-saving of files, highlighting search results or the current line, showing a ruler, setting the format of the ruler), and re-ordered options in NanoCFG. New possible colors for the prompts (winered, brown, silver, purple, ocher, orange, and pink). Bug #34 has been fixed by installing scripts with correct permissions. The profiler is updated to catch the new keys. When changing the prompt style via bswitch, it will automatically reload. The German translation and the docs have been updated.
About: Cobbler is a network installation and update server. It can be used to automatically set up PXE, install virtual guests, manage answer files, and reinstall existing Linux machines. Advanced features include importing distributions from DVDs and rsync mirrors, kickstart templating, integrated yum mirroring (integrated with the installer to make updates available at install time), creation of netboot ISOs, and built-in DHCP/DNS Management. Tools such as "cobbler triggers", a Python API, and an XMLRPC API allow integration with cobbler with the rest of your datacenter environment or other systems management applications. There is also a Web interface to simplify management of the install server. Cobbler supports RHEL 4+, Fedora, and derivative distributions, and is also able to install other popular distributions. Changes: This release contains some miscellaneous bugfixes, including fixes to the "cobbler replicate" feature, which is used to synchronize or clone multiple install servers. Koan is also updated at this time.
About: TRIXER creates catalogs of transparent file indexes. A transparent file index is an exact mirror of a directory, except that each of its file is void, thus "taking no space", while apparently having the same size of its indexed counterpart so as to describe it fully. This is accomplished by combining sparse files support with fusecompress on-the-fly compression technology. This is useful for many purposes, e.g. creating a catalog of your CD/DVD-ROM library to browse its contents without having to physically access it. The advantage of this software is that a TRIXER catalog is a plain mountable ext2 filesystem, allowing huge interoperability.
About: DSS creates hardlink-based snapshots of a given directory on a remote or local host using rsync's link-dest feature.
About: fio is an I/O tool meant to be used both for benchmark and stress/hardware verification. It has support for 13 different types of I/O engines (sync, mmap, libaio, posixaio, SG v3, splice, null, network, syslet, guasi, solarisaio, and more), I/O priorities (for newer Linux kernels), rate I/O, forked or threaded jobs, and much more. It can work on block devices as well as files. fio accepts job descriptions in a simple-to-understand text format. Several example job files are included. fio displays all sorts of I/O performance information. It supports Linux, FreeBSD, and OpenSolaris. Changes: This release adds support for hardware accelerated CRC-32 calculation for verification (on supported Intel platforms w/SSE4.2). It adds option priorities to get rid of manual option ordering. It increases the range of the smalloc allocator, and fixes a few bugs with it as well. It adds a ramp time option to allow job warm up before doing any measurements. It adds support for detailing RAID/LVM component utilization. It has many little bugfixes all over the map.
About: CDlinux is a compact Linux distribution. It is small in size, yet rich in features. It ships with an up-to-date version of the Linux kernel, Xorg, Xfce, and many popular applications. It has good internationalization and locale support and is highly user-configurable. Changes: A smart handling codepage (FAT/NTFS) of hotplug-able media. Ppower management support (ACPI/cpufreq). Auto-guessing the current time zone. Multimedia keyboard support. Booting from Linux RAID and ATA RAID. Improved support for a lot of newer hardware (video/WLAN/Linux UVC). Several new GUI configure tools. For those who love the old CDlinux 0.4.x, a new console-only CDlinux_mini edition is also released.
About: Dojo is a cross-browser AJAX/DHTML toolkit for building dynamic Web UIs. Dojo includes a rich-text editing component, an aspect-oriented event system, rich drag-and-drop support, a rapid-prototyping framework for building new widgets, and a full-featured abstraction for XmlHTTP I/O. In short, it's a very fast way to build Web interfaces. Changes: This release adds major upgrades to Dijit (the UI system), including visual polish, an attribute manipulation API, speed improvements in the CSS selector engine, new widgets in DojoX, advanced cross-domain Ajax transports, charting events, GFX events, and accessibility improvements. Over 1,000 issues have been addressed across the three projects. A single-file download of dojo.js as a Base Utility library is now available.
