About: hamsterdb is an embedded database engine written in ANSI-C. It includes B+Trees with variable length keys and records. It supports in-memory databases and endian-independent files, database cursors, multiple databases in one file, "record number" databases, and duplicate keys. hamsterdb is very fast and highly configurable. It compiles and runs on Unix platforms, Linux, Microsoft Windows, and Windows CE. Changes: This release adds one API function, which will be needed to implement the Python wrapper. It also fixes three bugs, two of them minor.
About: FBReaderJ is an e-book reader for the Android platform. It is a clone of the FBReader book reader written in Java by the same authors. FBReaderJ supports several e-book formats: oeb, epub, and fb2. Direct reading from zip, tar, and gzip archives is supported. Changes: Text selection has been added. Book tag support has been added.
About: Igelle is a Linux-based operating system distribution that is designed to run on various different devices, including desktop/laptop computers, cellular phones, mobile internet devices, and other handheld computers. As much as reasonably possible, it aims to produce the same user experience across all supported platforms. Changes: This is the first publicly available release of the operating system. This is an early development release, and not suitable for general end-users yet. A prebuilt ISO for x86 and a source package have been released for this version.
About: Hammock is a mock object framework for J2ME devices. It is used in conjunction with unit test frameworks like JMUnit and J2MEUnit. The framework includes mocks for many of the J2ME UI and I/O classes as well as a utility, HammockMaker, for generating mocks of other classes. Changes: This release adds an Ant task, testlistener, that can be used with JMUnit to make continuous integration testing possible; no manual intervention is required to run or verify the tests. In particular, a broken test causes an Ant build to fail. The demo application, ObjectStreams, has been extended with more unit tests and to show how continuous integration testing is now possible. Mock objects from the java.util package (e.g. MockDate and MockRandom) have been added to the distribution.
About: Pragmatic Mathematical Service is a JavaScript collection with over 400 mathematical functions. It also includes a very simple frontend that is usable with a mouse and/or keyboard (a virtual keyboard is included). Changes: Major bugs were fixed. Some 20 functions were added.
About: Thread Safe Template Library (TSTL) is a C++ library that provides thread-safe storage data structures without global locking. It includes classes for maps based on a non-binary extensible hashing tree for very fast access, a pipe, a queue, a timercache, a limitcache, and a fast writer multiple reader guard (WMRG) without global locking (which uses the interlocked instruction set of the CPU). It's useful for writing multithreaded applications and operating system components. Changes: A bug in the limitcache template method SetAt () was fixed.
About: ZK is an Ajax Java Web framework that enables rich UIs for Web applications with little programming. With event-driven components and an XUL-based markup language, developing is as simple as programming desktops and authoring HTML. Scripting languages include but are not limited to Java, JavaScript, Ruby, and Groovy. Changes: This release has over 10 new features and 35 bugfixes. It focuses mainly on fixing bugs. A more user-friendly way to handle out-of-service servers has been introduced. The client side library has been improved for easier component development.
About: Ex Astris is a game in the style of Elite and Space Trader: a strategy game of trading goods between different worlds. Changes: The Mersenne Twister random number generator is used. Cairo is used for rendering of the galaxy. A readme file with basic building instructions was added. Movement between planets and basic game play actions are supported.
About: Pragmatic Mathematical Service is a JavaScript collection with over 400 mathematical functions. It also includes a very simple frontend that is usable with a mouse and/or keyboard (a virtual keyboard is included). Changes: Bugs were fixed. The Bessel, Weber, confluent hypergeometric, Hurwitz and Rieman-Zeta, Laguerre, exponential integral, and dilogarithm functions have been added.
About: LibU is a multiplatform C library that comes under a BSD-style license. It includes many interdependent modules for accomplishing several tasks: memory allocation, networking and URI parsing, string manipulation, debugging, and logging in a very compact way, plus many other miscellaneous tasks. It has a small footprint (about 70KB for the default configuration), it is modular, and it has a multiplatform nature, making it an ideal candidate for embedded systems. KLone is an example of such usage. Changes: A bad memmove in u_path_snprintf (which may lead to buffer overflows) was fixed. A memory leak was fixed in the list module. Minor documentation fixes were made in the list module.
About: KLone is a fully-featured, multi-platform framework which allows dynamic Web pages to be written in C/C++ (with the usual <% code %> style). The pages can then be embedded (in compressed and/or encrypted form) into a single executable that also contains KLone's high-performance HTTP/S server. Given its nature, it can be linked natively to any C/C++ library (database, XML, graphics, etc.), without an intermediate layer, and it is especially suited for low-resource (embedded) systems. Changes: passwd-like authentication and a TLS PSK interface were added. GET and POST variables can now be accessed independently. A buffer overflow was fixed along with some minor issues.
About: GeoNiche is a GPS enabled PalmOS program for geocaching, hiking, fishing, bicycling, and other outdoor activities. In addition to a whole host of standard features, GeoNiche includes many features not found in other GPS applications. It imports geocaching data. It has advanced target and route sorting. There are multiple user-definable configurations. It includes many coordinate display and input formats. It keeps a waypoint visitation time/date which can be updated automatically. An alarm tone can sound when the user is near a target. Changes: A long-standing stability issues related to automatic GPS startup was corrected. An invalid memory read when progress dialogs are presented was fixed.
About: Ex Astris is a game in the style of Elite and Space Trader: a strategy game of trading goods between different worlds. Changes: The game is currently in pre-alpha status. A random galaxy is generated and the user is placed in the galaxy. Currently movement between planets is not possible.
About: Pragmatic Mathematical Service is a JavaScript collection with over 400 mathematical functions. It also includes a very simple frontend that is usable with a mouse and/or keyboard (a virtual keyboard is included). Changes: This release has many bugfixes. Some 40 functions and Javadoc comments have been added.
About: ZRTP Protocol Library is an implementation of Phil Zimmermann's ZRTP protocol, created based on and interoperable with Zfone beta 2. Combined with the GNU RTP Stack (ccrtp), this offers the ability to create communication services that natively support the ZRTP protocol. Changes: This release implements the ZRTP protocol as described in the current draft "draft-zimmermann-avt-zrtp-06x". GNU ZRTP has been tested to work with Phil Zimmerman's latest public beta of his Zfone project (dated April 2nd, 2008).
About: SigScheme is a R5RS Scheme interpreter for embedded use. It features a small footprint (64KB in library form on the "small" configuration) like SIOD and TinyScheme, low memory consumption (2-words per cons cell), handling of multibyte characters (UTF-8, EUCs, and Shift_JIS), and more. It is mainly developed to replace the Scheme interpreter of uim. Changes: Some tests were fixed.
About: Z-push is an implementation of the ActiveSync protocol, which is used 'over-the-air' for multi-platform ActiveSync devices including Windows Mobile, Ericsson, and Nokia phones. It allows any e-mail or groupware system using Maildir to be connected and synced with these devices. Changes: A version file and string were added in debug.txt. UTF-8 encode and decode functions were moved to utils.php (for ICS and IMAP). The default PHP path was added to include_path. In Diff backend, initializing of syncstate when using the dummyfolder option with GetHierarchy was fixed. Memory consumption was improved in the IMAP backend when parsing emails. Encoding issues when writing, replying, and forwarding mail in IMAP were fixed along with the encoding of subjects.
About: iLabs mobile toolbox is a set of libraries and demo applications for J2ME. It includes libraries for XMPP, HTML for limited rendering and browsing, and feed reading. The OpenMiniBrowser demo application is a useful but limited Web browser. It is intended to be embedded in other applications but may also be used as a standalone browser. Changes: Errors have been removed and the architecture enhanced. There is better error handling. Documentation has been added and enhanced. Several working applications are included, which can also function as examples. This release has been extensively tested for various phones and works on CLDC 1.0. The Sony Ericsson JP-5, 6, 7, and 8 and the Nokia S40, S60, and HTC have been tested. Known issues include a problem where on the Nokia S60 CLDC 1,0 (Nokia 6600) the MarkupReader class skips characters for unknown reasons. HTC on some devices has no support for the JavaME multimedia API and hence no support for the camera.
About: Javascript VirtualKeyboard allows you to use any existing keyboard layouts without having them installed on your local PC. This tool is useful for embedding into a WYSIWYG HTML editor, a Web mail system, chat, forum, or any other application requiring user input. About 70 languages/130 keyboard layouts are supported. 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: The IFrameVirtualKeyboard module was added, which is an isolated vk environment, preventing it from conflicting with JS frameworks. The DocumentSelection library in FireFox3 was fixed, as it incorrectly calculated range coordinates. Parameter detection in the vk loader was fixed. A plugins parameter was added to specify the vk module to be used (possible values are IFrame and Popup).
About: SILC (Secure Internet Live Conferencing) is a protocol which provides secure conferencing services in the Internet. It can be used to send any kind of messages, in addition to normal text messages. This includes multimedia messages like images, video, and audio stream. All messages in the SILC network are encrypted and authenticated, and messages can also be digitally signed. SILC protocol supports AES, SHA-1, PKCS#1, PKCS#3, X.509, OpenPGP, and is being developed in the IETF. The software is delivered as SILC Client for end users, SILC Server for system administrators, and SILC Toolkit for application developers. Changes: This version fixes a rekey timeout crash.
