    as an SMS gateway for GSM networks. Almost all GSM phones can use it to
    send and receive SMS messages, so this is a way to serve many more
    clients than just those using a WAP phone. Kannel was among the first
    WAP gateways to be certified as WAP 1.1 compliant by the Open Group,

    device file is implemented to some extent (DOS filesystems and tar
    files). It supports the following formats (both as plain and compressed
    files using compress, gzip, bzip2, or zip): tar, nroff, (sh)ar, HTML,
    executables, directories, RPM and Debian (.deb) archives, MS-Word, ps,

    data sources and expose them as contexts and to generate interesting
    EA. Current implementations include Native (kernel disk IO with event
    updates using fam), xml (mount an xml file as a filesystem), edb (mount
    a berkeley database), ffilter (mount an LDAP filter string) and mbox

    including the XML standard, Namespaces in XML, XML Base, RFC 2396,
    XPath, XPointer, HTML4, XInclude, SGML Catalogs, and XML Catalogs. In
    most cases, libxml tries to implement the specifications in a
    relatively strict way. To some extent, it provides support for the
    following specifications, but doesn't claim to implement them: DOM, FTP
    client, HTTP client, SAX, and DocBook SGML. Support for W3C XML Schemas
    is in progress. 

lignumCAD 0.2 (Development)

LUFS Userland Filesystem 0.9.0pre1 
http://freshmeat.net/releases/108584/

    LUFS is a hybrid userspace filesystem framework supporting an
    indefinite number of filesystems (localfs, sshfs, ftpfs, httpfs,
    socketfs, freenetfs, and nutellafs) transparently for any application.
    It can be regarded as doing the same job as the VFS (virtual filesystem
    switch) in the kernel: it is a switch, distributing the filesystem
    calls to its supported filesystems. However, LUFS filesystems are
    implemented in userspace. This would be a drawback for local
    filesystems where the access speed is important, but proves to be a
    huge advantage for networked filesystems where the userland flexibility
    is most important. 

materm 0.0.3 
http://freshmeat.net/releases/108555/

    materm is a multi-terminal for the X Windows system based on aterm that
    provides tabbed functionality without requiring KDE or GNOME.

OSSP ex 1.0.1 
http://freshmeat.net/releases/108613/

    OSSP ex is a small ISO-C++ style exception handling library for use in
    the ISO-C language. It allows you to use the paradigm of throwing and
    catching exceptions in order to reduce the amount of error handling
    code without making your program less robust. This is achieved by
    directly transferring exceptional return codes (and the program control
    flow) from the location where the exception is raised (throw point) to
    the location where it is handled (catch point), usually from a deeply
    nested sub-routine to a parent routine. All intermediate routines no
    longer have to make sure that the exceptional return codes from
    sub-routines are correctly passed back to the parent.

    Package DataBase View generates an HTML view of an RPM or a dpkg
    database. Its modular design allows support for other database formats
    and other output formats (like XML). 

PHP ShoutBox 0.1.4 
http://freshmeat.net/releases/108566/

    PHP ShoutBox allows developers to add a instant message shout box to
    websites. The shoutbox is an iframe element, and the script operates
    using javascript and stores the messages in a MySQL database (a file
    gets complicated with synchronous posts, so a database was favored).
    The look of the box is controlled through styles. All the modern
    browsers are supported. It handles some of the details that other shout
    boxes do not. When the new message is displayed, the shoutbox is
    scrolled down so that the new message comes into view. It also checks
    for new messages.

    inside). 

SouRCe PacKaGer 0.1.3-1.0rc1 
http://freshmeat.net/releases/108594/

    SouRCe PacKaGer (srcpkg) is a program for managing separate software
    packages under the same directory hierarchy. It is especially useful
    for packages distributed as source. It is similar to GNU Stow, Depot,
    etc., but works by creating packages from new files found in the
    directory tree, allowing it to manage large, complex, interdependent
    packages such as those of KDE and GNOME.

http://freshmeat.net/releases/108571/

    Swiss-PdbViewer is an application that provides a user friendly
    interface for analyzing several proteins at the same time. The proteins

    Turbo Vision is a C++ library that provides a very nice user interface
    for console applications. This UNIX port is based on Borland's version
    2.0 with fixes. It was made to create RHIDE, a nice IDE for gcc and
    other GNU compilers. The library supports /dev/vcsa devices for fast
    access to local consoles, and it uses ncurses to run from telnet and
    xterm. This port, in contrast to the Sigala's port, doesn't have
    "100% compatibility with the original library" as goal.
    Instead, many modifications were made for the sake of security
    (especially buffer overflows). This port is also available for the
    original platform (DOS).

http://freshmeat.net/releases/108554/

    Typing Trainer is designed for exercising typing speed and typing
    accuracy, by providing an environment to type in a copy of an original

ucspi-ipc 0.60 
http://freshmeat.net/releases/108564/

    sudo without the need for setuid programs. 

UnixODBC.pm 0.18 
http://freshmeat.net/releases/108558/

    UnixODBC.pm provides Perl programs with a subset of the X/Open ODBC API
    to the EasySoft unixODBC DBMS libraries, as well as a peer to peer API
    for querying ODBC data sources on networked systems. In addition, it
    provides peer client and server scripts and configuration files, sample
    clients that perform ODBC queries on local and networked systems, and
    two multi-host data managers: one that uses Apache and CGI to provide a
    Web browser interface, and another that uses Perl/Tk.

    & SVCD Collection on a Web site. It's easy to install on an Apache

Verlof 0.4.0 
http://freshmeat.net/releases/108596/

    Verlof is a Web application for registering and viewing leave
    information. It records hours of leave rights and hours of leave within
    categories like normal leave, special leave, reduced working-hours
    (ADV), and the begin and end dates for the leave's period. The few
    rules imposed on the entries are mainly sanity checks like "begin
    date is in the weekend". The act of entering a new leave entry
    sends an email to the group manager and a copy to the employee. The
    advantages of this electronic version over the paper version are: there
    is a single information location (no employee-card and mother-card
    discrepancies), questionable entries immediately draw the manager's
    attention (with email), and various up-to-date views of the leave
    history are available (total, year, and list). Verlof is a Dutch-only
    application and a little specific to Leiden University.

    movies as seen, a search by genre or title/subtitle/plot/cast data, a
