TankCalc is a sophisticated storage tank analyzer. Using numerical Calculus methods, it models storage tanks of many different kinds: horizontal, vertical, even mounted at an angle between 0 and 90 degrees, with flat, spherical, elliptical, or conical end caps with user-defined dimensions. It produces tables of data correlating content height and partial volume or the reverse, and computes the tank's weight as well as the weight of its contents. It includes a 3D (perspective and anaglyphic) graphic modeling tool that greatly helps users in understanding the tank being modeled as well as configuring sensor placement.

Pyjamas is a Python-to-Javascript compiler and an AJAX widget set for Web application development (its sister project is pyjamas-desktop). It is a port of Google's Web Toolkit to Python. License: The Apache License 2.0 Changes:
This release brings significant improvements to the Python-to-Javascript compiler, and adds enhancements that can be used to dramatically reduce the amount of Javascript deployed. Thanks to the use of dynamic module loading, Python modules can now be compiled into their own Javascript cache file, making it much easier for developers who use AJAX Widget Toolkits to integrate Pyjamas-generated Javascript into their applications.

BuGLe combines a graphical OpenGL debugger with a selection of filters on the OpenGL command stream. The debugger allows viewing of state, textures, framebuffers, and shaders, while the filters allow for logging, error checking, free camera control, video capture, and more. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
This release is packed with new debugger features, including a buffer viewer, info log viewer, and the option to stop on shader compile/link failure. It also generally improves portability and cross-compilation support, adds a target for OpenGL ES 1.1 on Windows, and has a lot of bugfixes.

Video Contact Sheet *NIX (vcs for short) is a script that creates a contact sheet (preview) from videos by taking still captures distributed over the length of the video. The output image contains useful information on the video such as codecs, file size, screen size, frame rate, and length. It requires mplayer, ImageMagick (convert and montage), bc, and ffmpeg. License: GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL) Changes:
Experimental support for DVDs (-V). JPEG 2000 output format (-j2). Polaroid mode has been renamed to photos mode, and polaroid and polaroidframe modes have been introduced. There are slight adjustments in the timestamp size based on capture size. There is better detection of video frame rate (no more 1.000 FPS, in theory) and audio channels number by using ffmpeg. Overlap mode putting all images on the same location (possibly only with newer versions of ImageMagick) has been fixed.

Xphile is a radiology teaching library allowing browsing by system, pathology, and region as well as export to Keynote and MIRC sites. It requires Mac OS X 10.4 or later. License: GNU General Public License v3 Changes:
This version allows available studies to be opened in OsiriX. Images can be directly dragged to the Finder. Images are combined with improved geometry. All Fields can now be searched in the browser window.

This is a Micro-Partitioning statistics and documentation tool for IBM System p and System i servers running AIX/Linux/AS400. The tool is able to produce historical CPU utilization graphs of LPARs and shared CPU usage, and collects physical and logical configuration data. License: Freeware Changes:
Aggregated graphs creation no longer fails for more than 64 LPARs in one server. An issue with a dot within LPAR names has been fixed.

Dissy is a disassembler for multiple architectures. It is implemented as a graphical frontend to objdump. It allows fast navigation through the disassembled code and easy searching for addresses and symbols. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
An instruction information box has been added. This release will display instructions affecting condition flags at conditional branches. An icon has been added. Various bugs have been fixed.

Mtools is a collection of utilities for accessing MS-DOS disks from Unix without mounting them. It supports Win95 style long file names, OS/2 Xdf disks, ZIP/JAZ disks, and 2m disks (store up to 1992k on a high density 3 1/2" disk). License: GNU General Public License v3 Changes:
This release was made compliant with GNU guidelines for inclusion as an official GNU project. The file size limit has been fixed (4GB rather than 2GB). Compatiblity fixes for OS/2, ARM, and NetBSD.

pscpug will graph the CPU percent usage of a given process. Since you can see changes in usage over time, it is often more useful than other utilities, such as top, for checking on a specific errant process. License: BSD License (revised) Changes:
This release fixes an issue when building pscpug as a statically-linked binary.

Code Browser is a folding and outlining editor. It is a lightweight but powerful tool for structuring and browsing source code using folders and links. It is especially designed to keep a good overview of the code of a large project. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:

LibUtillery is a free, BSD-licensed programmer's toolbox; a lightweight and thoroughly documented collection of sub-libraries that solve generic and often repetitive tasks. It also helps with writing portable software by providing a single API to many non-standard extensions that are not natively supported on all operating systems. It ships functions for memory management and debugging, logging, thread synchronization, and debugging, configuration file parsing, hash table, tree and list data structures, standard integer types, and more. License: MIT/X Consortium License Changes:
The UCfgFile component can now parse shell-compatible configuration files that do not contain any INI-style section headers. Reference counting in all initialization and shutdown functions makes it easy to safely use LibUtillery in projects where one part does not know what the others are doing (e.g. in plug-ins.) The source code of an educational example program has been added, and some further documentation cleanup was done.

PLOTICUS is a command line utility for creating bar, line, pie, boxplot, scatterplot, sweep, heatmap, vector, timeline, Venn diagrams, and other types of charts and plots. ploticus is good for automated or just-in-time graph generation. It handles date, time, and categorical data nicely, and has some basic statistical capabilities. It can output to GIF, PNG, SVG, SWF, JPEG, PostScript, EPS, and X11. You can use convenient preset options or create complex scripts with rich and detailed color and style operations. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
A new proc pvalue for computing pvalues on t test. Some other new functionality and some bugfixes.

Email-reminder allows users to define events that they want to be reminded of by email. Possible events include birthdays, anniversaries, weekly, monthly, and yearly events. Reminders can be sent on the day of the event and a few days beforehand. It uses a cron job to checks for events and send reminders once a day, and a simple GUI that allows users to edit the reminders they want to receive. License: GNU General Public License v3 Changes:
This release fixes a bug introduced in 0.7.4 that affects all users of the anniversary event type. Many anniversary events were not being sent. It also includes a minor fix to the salutation blurb when sending reminders to a third party, and a new checkbox in the preferences of the graphical editor. The Net::SMTP::SSL Perl module is now truly optional, and no errors will be returned if you don't have it installed.

Task Coach is a simple todo manager to manage personal tasks and todo lists. It grew out of a frustration that well-known task managers, such as those provided with Outlook or Lotus Notes, do not provide facilities for composite tasks. Often, tasks and other things to do consist of several activities. Task Coach is designed to deal with composite tasks. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
This release fixes some bugs: enable drag and drop from Thunderbird Portable under Windows, correctly read old task files (Task Coach release 0.57 and earlier), correctly color subtasks that belong to a category with a color, and save print margins in the TaskCoach.ini file.
