About: XOTclIDE is an integrated (interactive) development environment for the Tcl and XOTcl language, a highly flexible object-oriented extension of Tcl. It provides a Smalltalk-like programming environment similar to Squick. It allows graphical introspection and editing of a running system (based on Tcl's and XOTcl's introspection facilities). The system state can be saved in the form of Tcl packages. It can optionally use a version control system based on a relational database (MySQL, PostgreSQL, ODBC, or SQLite). All system changes are saved to the database on the fly. It provides browsers for viewing and editing xotcl classes and objects. It also contains syntax highlighting and a static code checker for TCL and xotcl. It contains many developer plugins. Changes: The program was updated for XOTcl 1.6.0 and Tcl 8.5. Multiple code views are synchronized now. Usability was improved. Many small bugs were fixed.

It has an easy and powerful design, allowing it to implement complex layouts like Korean, Japanese, Chinese, and so on. It has full support for keyboard and mouse input. It features a completely CSS-driven UI that is easy skinnable. Changes: This release includes one more skin for the touchscreen interface and several bugfixes.
About: poker-network includes a poker server, a client library, an abstract user interface library, and a client based on it. The server deals the cards and checks the user actions using a poker game engine (poker-engine). It listens on a TCP/IP port and understands its own specific protocol. The persistent information is stored in a MySQL database. The client library implements the poker-network protocol for the client. The abstract user interface library provides a framework based on the client library and suited to implement a user friendly client. Changes: Complete JSONP support and custom session names. User names can be up to 50 characters. A new packet was implemented: PacketPokerBuyInLimits(Packet). The buy-in boundaries for "game_id" are now in the range ["min","max"]. An optimal buy-in is suggested in "best".
About: poker-engine is a Python library that implements poker rules according to variants and betting structures specified in configuration files. It is designed to be used by a multiplayer poker server, a poker AI, or a poker client. Changes: A minMoney method was added. This release is under the GPLv3.
About: uim is a multilingual input method framework. It aims to provide a flexible development platform and useful user environment for input methods. It works in many environments, including general desktop systems such as GNOME or KDE, and even in a console. It also supports Linux Zaurus and Mac OS X. Changes: Unescaped strings in the generated loader.scm that caused a uim initialization error on m17n-vi-han was fixed along with a problem where improper uim initialization caused uim-pref-qt to not work.
About: Address Book Server is a shared server to the Address Book application. Address Book Client (included) provides bi-directional synchronization between the server and the participating clients. There is support for synchronizing over the local network as well as the Internet. It has the potential to support most mainstream databases. Changes: The System Preference Panel was updated with an enhanced workflow. Minor enhancements were made on the server side.

The manual in the disk image was updated.
About: HDF (Hierarchical Data Format) is a general purpose library and file format for storing scientific data. It arranges data into datasets (multidimensional arrays) and groups (a structure for organizing objects). Changes: A bug that caused segfaults in Attribute::read was fixed. PropList::getClassName now uses the portable HDfree instead of free.
About: SEM2DPACK is a simulator of 2D elastic wave propagation and fracture dynamics that applies the Spectral Element Method (SEM, similar to mass-lumped high-order finite element methods). Flexibility and accuracy are the main goals. Although the emphasis is currently on computational seismology and earthquake source dynamics, this tool might attract a wider audience in computational mechanics, research, and engineering. Changes: This version introduces a velocity and state dependent friction law for dynamic faults, with fast velocity-weakening at high slip rates.
About: Multiplication Station will teach your child to add, subtract, and multiply. It is a multi-user application with a simple admin interface. All parameters are configurable, like grid size and the fonts and colors of number ranges. A countdown timer is used to keep the player's attention focused. A list of high scores is maintained. Changes: Changes were made to the way events are handled when closing the application. There are also changes for Mac users.

Changes: This release adds support for string processing and writing programs that communicate with each other via the network.
About: TuxMathScrabble challenges young people to construct compound equations and consider multiple abstract possibilities. There are four skill levels for practice, from basic addition and subtraction through multiplication and division. This software includes a data recorder interface for student performance assessment. Changes: Changes to the way some events are handled.
About: Augeas is a configuration API and editing tool. It parses common configuration files like /etc/hosts or /etc/grub.conf in their native formats and transforms them into a tree. Configuration changes are made by manipulating this tree and saving it back into native configuration files. Changes: This release adds subtraction of regexps to the language. It reports errors during get/put in the tree; subnodes have been added to /augeas/files/PATH/error for that purpose. There are many bugfixes. All known memory leaks have been fixed. The typecheck for lens union (l1 | l2) has been fixed. Overall memory usage has been reduced by releasing unused compiled regexps. There are further performance improvements in libfa. This release checks that values match the regexps in STORE when saving. libfa can now convert an automaton back to a regular expression (FA_AS_REGEXP). There are new lenses for /etc/fstab, /etc/xinetd.conf, and /etc/xinetd.d/*.
About: DSHub is a hubsoft for the ADC Network. It uses the ADC protocol (the next DC generation). It is multi-platform and has many interesting features. Changes: This release has more features.

It is not a MySQL DNS server, but a static configuration model from a MySQL replication cluster. It has a technical schema based back-office for ISP MySQL developers. Changes: This release adds an install script that greatly simplifies the process of installation, making it painless for the user. This script checks for all the required libraries, tries to guess its location, informs the user as necessary, and leaves you with an initial configured NS ready to to run. There is also an install script for each of the user interfaces. An intense cleanup of the code has been done, removing minor and major install bugs.
About: Jaikoz is a powerful tag editor that allows you to organize, edit, and correct thousands of audio tags with ease. Jaikoz has powerful automation features. Jaikoz uses MusicBrainz and MusicIP, online databases of over 5 million songs, which can match your songs automtically based on the actual music as well as the metadata. Jaikoz uses a convenient spreadsheet view to allow you to edit information very quickly and provides many autoformatting tasks which do most of the work for you. Changes: For brand new new installations (does not apply to upgrades), users will not see as many columns loaded by default. The Autocorrecters default configuration now does remote corrections (such as Correct tags from Musicbrainz) as well as the local corrections. Some options such as the View Artwork Fullsize and View Online were previously only available in the popup menus. These have now been added to the top level menu as well. The keyboard shortcuts have been standardised, and shortcuts moved to the most popular tasks.
