Source: Freshmeat Daily News html2ps is a PHP equivalent of the popular Perl script by the same name
that accurately converts HTML with images, complex tables (including
rowspan/colspan), layers/divs, and CSS styles to Postscript and PDF.
Unlike most other HTML2PS/HTML2PDF converters, it offers good CSS 2.1
support and is very tolerant to non-valid HTML. It can convert even
CSS-intense sites like aol.com and msn.com.

Changes:
This release adds the A0-A3 and A6-A10 paper sizes, several updates to
the documentation and source code comments, and support for interactive
text and button form fields. It fixes lengths given in relative "em" and
"ex" units being incorrectly calculated for the "background-position"
property, TH attributes being ignored, a PHP 5 compatibility problem,
part of the content after a manual page break being printed on the
same page, and printing the text on the page margins inside the
fixed-positioned elements.

BOINC, and the log file is no longer "boinc.log", but the
BOINC-generated "stdoutae.txt". Wrong behavior which occurred when a
project had several applications has been fixed.

glitch on KDE, and a problem with the Russian localization. Unnecessary
library dependencies have been eliminated, allowing the XPIs to work on
older systems without libstdc++.so.6, Pango, and Cairo.
Source: Freshmeat Daily News ngacl is an effort to give Linux and its filesystems a full blown ACL system, similar to that used by NFSv4 and Windows. With this software, you have 13 different access rights, dynamic inheritance, and audit ACLs. The implementation is filesystem-independent because the kernel parts are an LSM module. In addition, there is a Samba-VFS module that enables you to alter ACLs with the Windows ACL editor.
License: GNU General Public License (GPL)
Changes:
This release adds working audit ACLs, stability, and semantic
enhancements.

It uses Java 1.1, and includes classes to be easily reused in other Java applications.

Source: Freshmeat Daily News The Z-machine Preservation Project is a Java
implementation of the Z-machine (Java version
= 5 is required). The project goal is to
provide a Z-code interpreter in Java that conforms
to the standard and is easy to comprehend,
maintain, and extend. Architecturally, it consists
of a Z-machine core system that is independent of
a particular user interface technology. The core
system's behaviour is documented and verified
through its test cases.
License: GNU General Public License (GPL)
Changes:
This release adds support for timed input and enhanced Unicode display. It also provides a new paging algorithm and fixes several issues with the screen display and input. This is the first release to run several public Z-code test suites (random, strictz, etude, gntests) successfully.
Source: Freshmeat Daily News cowdancer allows copy-on-write file access. You can copy a full tree
using hard links, and cowdancer will create a new copy when you need to
write to a file. It's completely implemented in userland, and should run
on most Linux filesystems.
License: GNU General Public License (GPL)
Changes:
Speed improvements were made. The binary ilist is saved in cow-shell and loaded mmap in cowdancer. The ilist is now also sorted. The code is now a bit more thread-safe.
Source: Freshmeat Daily News Redet is a tool for developing and executing regular expressions using any of more than 30 search programs, editors, and programming languages, intended both for developing regular expressions for use elsewhere and as a search tool in its own right.

The properties of each program are determined by runtime tests, which guarantees that they will be correct for the program version and locale. Additional features include persistent history, extensive help, a variety of character entry tools, and the ability to change locale while running. Redet is highly configurable and fully supports Unicode.
License: GNU General Public License (GPL)
Changes:
Cgrep is now supported. Hyphens in Tcl regular expressions no longer need to be quoted in order to work properly. The Tcl -nocase and -expanded options are now supported. A command line option that causes the program to start up in substitution mode was added. The default program has was changed from egrep to Tcl. A bug in which attempts to obtain version information from nawk triggered an error was fixed.

versioned, disk-to-disk, backups via rsync easy.
It allows the user to set up disk-to-disk backups
that happen automatically.
