About: GWintree is a GEDCOM-based genealogy program. It provides facilities to record, view, edit, and merge data, and to produce charts, family trees, and reports in a range of formats, including HTML. Charts can show all relatives, ancestors only, or descendants only. HTML charts allow you to click on a person in your HTML report to see where they are on the chart. Automatic matching and merging of data between files is supported. Changes: New descendant and ancestor photo charts have been added. Some bugs have been fixed, notably in the descendant sheet chart and on displaying and saving data lists.
About: Back In Time is a simple backup system for the GNOME desktop inspired by the "flyback project" and "TimeVault". The backup is done by taking snapshots of a specified set of directories. All you have to do is configure: where to save snapshot, what directories to backup, and when a backup should be done (manually, every hour, every day, every week, or every month). It acts as a "user mode" backup system. This means that you can backup and restore only folders to which you have write access. Changes: SnapshotsDialog now has a right-click popup menu and a toolbar with copy and restore buttons. A more robust backup lock file is used. Logging is now done through syslog. A small bug in copying to the clipboard was fixed. The Spanish translation was updated.
About: AgileWiki is an SDK for assembling software systems which are fluid, easily configured and can be reorganized on-the-fly to meet ever changing requirements. It includes a COW-based database, the Rolonics programming paradigm, and semantic inferencing. Changes: The Element Model platform is now crash-proof.
About: Vendetta Online is a multi-platform 3D space-combat MMO for Windows, Mac, Linux/32 and Linux/64. The game permits players to interact in a vast online galaxy; fighting, trading, and mining their way to success. A "twitch" type real-time combat model makes true player skill the deciding factor instead of character advancement. Massive capital-ship battles shake the foundations of the major nations at war, while others struggle to push back the encroachment of the AI "Hives". A no-strings free trial is available. Changes: This release added a video option to reset FOV and HUD size upon video resolution change. An issue with changing HUD size while being damaged was fixed. Improvements were made to server stability.
About: silencio is a script that generates a one page Web page. Configuration is through variables in the script. It supports the display of a Twitter RSS feed within a three column design. Future versions will allow easy toggling of the number of content columns as well as support for other social network statuses.
About: Kompimi C Data Structure Library is a C data structure library with an emphasis on collections. It currently includes dynamic arrays and lists. Changes: This initial release includes two data structures, the dynamic array and the list, which is based on unrolled doubly-linked linked lists. Interfaces are documented with Doxygen. Included are all unit tests, performance tests (for list), and build files for UNIX/gcc and Visual Studio 2005 and 2008. The code compiles cleanly as C89, C99, and C++. All build output files are placed in a "derived" tree at the same level as "src".
About: Wabit, sponsored by SQL Power Group Inc, is a cross-platform, open-source ad-hoc reporting tool with a GUI and an embeddable API.
About: Gems 3D is a game of logic, chance, and organization. With each turn three gems fall on the playing board, and the player gets a chance to move one gem in order to form lines of five or more gems. Once a line is formed the gems that combine it disappear, and the player scores points and gains free board space. The game goes on until the entire board is full. It includes background techno/trance music by UltraMax. Changes: Mac OS X 10.5 support.
About: SMI is a full featured SHOUTcast management interface, designed to manage an array of servers. It allows the user to create and edit servers and to graph listener counts and global counts. It offers multiple levels of user access. Changes: A session header issue was fixed.
About: Noor is a program for viewing Quran. It supports different interfaces like GTK, HTML, and plain text for displaying Quran.

About: Argentum is a Web-based project and invoice management software. It aims to be easy to use, while remaining a powerful tool. Changes: Big changes include a module system and Ajax modal windows for usability. There were miscellaneous bugfixes and feature enhancements.
About: Camera Life is a system for cataloging your photo collection. It gives users the ability to search or browse your archive in intuitive ways, with an attention to powerful administrative functions. Photos can be stored locally, on a remote server, on Amazon S3, or on Flickr. The theme and icons can be easily customized. It is compatible with the Gallery Remote API (so you can upload with iPhoto, Digikam, and Java). It is RSS enabled, supports microformats and OpenSearch, and has a special version of the site for iPhone/iPod touch. AJAX is used to optimize the site as necessary. Changes: The dreamhost problem was fixed some more. A tempdir option was included.
About: Grapple is designed to be a simple network layer, allowing the addition of multiuser features to an application for as little as a dozen lines of code. However, it also allows for more. It features simple client-server networking that keeps all clients aware of all other clients, passworded servers, and data transfer via TCP, UDP, or reliable UDP. Advanced features include network messaging via push, pull, or a combination, multiple methods of querying users, user groups for client bandwidth saving, network load reacting data transmission and retransmission, background pinging to monitor network states, server failover, and a fully functional lobby system. Changes: The major enhancement in this release is synchronized variables, which allow you to change a variable on one client and have all clients automatically reflect the change without the need for messaging. Other updates are description binary blobs, performance improvements all over, bugfixes in the lobby and Win32 port, hardening of server side code to prevent clients crashing servers with overruns, improved handling of large UDP packets, and the addition of CD-Key functionality.
About: Ksplice is practical technology for updating the Linux kernel without rebooting. It enables you to avoid the disruptive process of rebooting for kernel security updates and bugfixes. By making it easy to keep your systems up to date, Ksplice helps you avoid the security and stability risks of running out-of-date software. Changes: This release added support for patching kernels built in a separate Kbuild output directory (O=dir) and added additional metadata to the Ksplice update tarballs. It was updated for kernel 2.6.28.
About: jWebApp is a Java-based Web application development framework that is specifically designed to satisfy the need for simple Web development. jWebApp is configuration-free, straightforward, and extremely easy to work with. Changes: A few bugs were fixed. The code was cleaned and repackaged. The ability to reference URI parts in configuration URLs was added.
About: jPersist is an extremely powerful object-relational database persistence API that manages to avoid the need for configuration and annotation; mapping is automatic. It uses JDBC, and can work with any relational database and any type of connection resource. It uses information obtained from the database to handle mapping between the database and Java objects, so mapping configuration is not needed, and annotation is not needed. In fact, there is no configuration needed at all. Changes: A few bugs were fixed. The code was cleaned and repackaged. The ability to reference URI parts in configuration URLs was added.
About: jOggplayer is an open source, platform- independant, graphical Ogg Vorbis player developed using Java. It features the usual basics needed to enjoy your files, including playing files from your hard drive or streaming from an URL, individual file play or multiple file looping play, sequential or random play, volume control that goes to 11, a visual song progress indicator, etc. Changes: This release added Last.fm Scrobbling, improved the playlist load time, and added the ability to save a playlist of only your favorite/checked songs from the Playlist dropdown. Bugs with playlists of only 1 or 2 files when looping is enabled, with adding to an empty playlist drop-down, and loading songs from a playlist file were fixed. The default playlist file is now "jOggPlaylist.pls". An Ant build file is now included. An option for automatically playing was added. Some help was added.
About: kexec-loader is a Linux-based bootloader that aims to fit on a floppy and have a grub-like interface and configuration system. It loads kernels using the kexec system calls. Changes: This release fixes some bugs and implements shell autocompletion.
About: fuselagefs consists of a C++ wrapper class for FUSE called Fuselagefs, as well as Delegatefs, which is a Fuselagefs subclass that delegates all operations to an underlying base filesystem. With Delegatefs, you can expose dir1 at mountpoint dir2 very easily as a FUSE filesystem. Subclasses of Delegatefs can then be created, which add a little extra functionality to the delegation operation but rely on the parent class to perform the work and return errors to FUSE in an appropriate manner. An example subclass is petardfs. Changes: This release adds BASEDIR handling to main(). It fixes a bug in delegatefs xattr methods.
About: ring3k is a user mode kernel capable of running Windows 2000 and XP compatible native applications on a Linux platform. It is a light-weight virtualization of the NT kernel for the Linux x86 platform achieved by reimplementing kernel mode code as a ring 3 process in C++. Changes: An initial implementation of named pipes. Valgrind fixes.
About: Darcs is an advanced revision control system. It has two particularly distinctive features which differ from other revision control systems: each copy of the source is a fully functional branch, and underlying it is a consistent and powerful theory of patches. In spite of its power, darcs is simple to use, in part because of the symmetry that is restored by making each copy of the repository a branch. Changes: This release provides GHC 6.10 support and fixes a crash on Windows with the darcs help command.
About: WMFS (Window Manager From Scratch) is a very lightweight window manager for X. The goal of this project is to make a very basic, lightweight, and dynamic mindow manager. The result is currently a small WM usable for daily use (but not yet stable).
About: Openrdate is a date and time-setting program that implements RFC 868 (inetd time) and RFC 2030 (SNTP/NTP) protocols. It is a platform-independent package of OpenBSD's rdate program. Changes: This release has been updated to the latest version of OpenBSD's arc4random. It also tweaks the configure to determine if the user is compiling on Linux and with what kernel version. If the version is >= 2.6.19, the urandom device is used instead of sysctl, because sysctl is being deprecated in Linux.
About: Gallery is a slick Web-based photo album written using PHP. It is easy to install, includes a config wizard, and provides users with the ability to create and maintain their own albums in the album collection via an intuitive Web interface. Photo management includes automatic thumbnail creation, image resizing, rotation, ordering, captioning and more. Albums can have read, write, and caption permissions per individual authenticated user for an additional level of privacy. Changes: Resolution of one security issue and several minor bugs.
About: Support Incident Tracker (or SiT!) is a Web-based application for tracking technical support calls or emails. It can manage contacts, sites, technical support contracts, and support incidents in one place. You can send and receive email directly from SiT!, attaching files and recording every communication in the incident log. SiT! is aware of Service Level Agreements, and incidents are flagged if they stray outside of them. Changes: This release provides Danish and Portuguese language support and an updated Spanish translation, along with important new features such as billing, inventory, and POP/IMAP incoming mail support. Many minor and some not so minor bugs have been fixed.
