[001] - Acovel Media Player 0.01 
  by Jerome St-Louis (http://freshmeat.net/users/jerstlouis/)
  Thu, Dec 6th 2007 10:58

Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Players

About: Acovel is a cross-platform media player (currently running on Linux
and Windows). It features an intelligent algorithm that will analyze both
ID3 (v1 ahd v2) tags and filenames to fill up its music collection
database. Its search feature is very fast. It is currently limited to
playing albums, but upcoming versions will make it a full-featured media
player.

[002] - amforth 2.5 
  by Matthias Trute (http://freshmeat.net/users/mtrute/)
  Thu, Dec 6th 2007 10:31

Scientific/Engineering
Software Development :: Embedded Systems
System :: Hardware

About: amforth is an embedded Forth distribution for the the AVR Atmega
microcontroller. Once put into flash, it needs only a serial connection to
the host computer. New words are compiled directly into flash, thus
extending the dictionary immediately. It provides most of the ANS94 Forth
CORE plus some extensions. It is written in assembly language and Forth
itself. The main development uses Atmega8 and Atmega32 controllers; other
Atmega controllers work with small adjustments.

Changes: This release fixes some bugs and rearranges internal structures.
The library part now has a cooperative multitasker. Documentation on how
amforth works internally and how to use it was added to the distribution.
The Web site was completely updated.

[003] - AssetMan 2.5a 
  by John Frank (http://freshmeat.net/users/jfrank5760/)
  Thu, Dec 6th 2007 10:44



About: AssetMan is an Intranet material management application.  Users can
create, edit, and print purchase orders and  invoices and maintain a
database of capital assets for  tracking purposes, and can also generate,
edit and issue  invoices for customer billing or inter-departmental cost 
recovery. 

Changes: This release adds the ability to configure the length of asset
tags as well as PO and invoice numbers. It fixes a directory traversal bug
in the download PDF code. If exploited, the bug could allow for the
exposure of sensitive system information. This release attempts to address
some other fairly minor security concerns by improving the validation of
input data. The ADODB library for PHP was updated to the most recent
version.

hood to start bringing it to a point where 3rd parties can easily write
and ship filter sets. The most obvious change for users is that remote
(network) debugging is now easier to do.

[008] - chrony 1.23 
  by Richard Curnow (http://freshmeat.net/users/rcurnow/)
  Thu, Dec 6th 2007 14:18

System :: Systems Administration

About: chrony is a pair of programs for keeping computer clocks accurate.
chronyd is a background (daemon) program and chronyc is a command-line
interface to it. Time reference sources for chronyd can be RFC1305 NTP
servers, human (via keyboard and chronyc), or the computer's real-time
clock at boot time (Linux only). chronyd can determine the rate at which
the computer gains or loses time and compensate for it while no external
reference is present. Its use of NTP servers can be switched on and off
(through chronyc) to support computers with dial-up/intermittent access to
the Internet, and it can also act as an RFC1305-compatible NTP server.

Changes: Support for MIPS, x86_64, SPARC, Alpha, ARM, and FreeBSD was
added. The sources were made gcc 4 compatible. A problem with certain IP
addresses was fixed. There are several other bugfixes and enhancements.

System :: Archiving :: Mirroring
System :: Systems Administration

About: Lsyncd (Live Syncing (Mirror) Daemon) uses rsync to synchronize
local directories with a remote machine running rsyncd. It watches
multiple directory trees through inotify. The first step after adding the

software synchronizes single files by collecting the inotify events.
lsyncd is a lightweight live mirror solution that should be easy to
install and use while blending well with your system.

extraction path has been updated to include the theme filename, so
multiple theme files can be dragged and dropped from the same directory
and each one will be extracted into its own directory.

Changes: Bugs in string::rfind, string::find_last_of, and
string::find_last_not_of were fixed. The rope::iterator copy constructor
was fixed. 64-bit file operation calls are used if they are available on
the system (i.e. if _LARGEFILE_SOURCE or _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE are defined).
