Paraphrasing the website:
Mailman is a mailing list manager (MLM); that is, software to help manage
email discussion lists, much like Majordomo, LISTSERV, and the like.
Unlike most similar products, Mailman gives each mailing list a web page
and allows users to subscribe, unsubscribe, and change their preferences
via the web. Even a list manager can administer his or her list(s)
entirely via the web. Mailman integrates many common MLM features,
including web-based archiving (though it also has hooks for external
archivers), mail-to-news gateways, bounce handling, spam prevention,
Majordomo-style email-based list administration, direct SMTP delivery (with
fast bulk mailing), digest delivery, virtual domain support, and more.
Mailman is written mostly in Python (with a smattering of C where necessary
for security purposes), and includes hooks to make it easily scriptable and
extensible. It is compatible with most web servers and browsers, and most
mail transfer agents (mail servers). Mailman's documentation may be found on
its website.
This module provides a WebDAV server. WebDAV stands for "Web-based
Distributed Authoring and Versioning". It is a set of extensions to
the HTTP protocol which allows users to collaboratively edit and
manage files on remote web servers.
Net::DAV::Server provides a WebDAV server and exports a filesystem for
you using the Filesys::Virtual suite of modules. If you simply want to
export a local filesystem, use Filesys::Virtual::Plain as above.
This module doesn't currently provide a full WebDAV implementation.
However, I am working through the WebDAV server protocol compliance
test suite (litmus, see http://www.webdav.org/neon/litmus/) and will
provide more compliance in future. The important thing is that it
supports cadaver and the Mac OS X Finder as clients.
Algorithm::Numerical::Shuffle
=============================
Shuffle is a perl module which performs a one pass, fair shuffle on a
list. If the list is passed as a reference to an array, the shuffle
is done in situ.
The running time of the algorithm is linear in the size of the list.
For an in situ shuffle, the memory overhead is constant; otherwise,
linear extra memory is used.
The algorithm used is discussed by Knuth [3]. It was first published
by Fisher and Yates [2], and later by Durstenfeld [1].
Frodo is a freeware C64 emulator for BeOS, Unix, MacOS, AmigaOS, Win32
and RiscOS systems and the world's first C64 emulator not bearing a
"64" in its name. :-) (No, it has absolutely nothing to do with
frodo.hiof.no, that's a pure coincidence.)
Frodo was developed to reproduce the graphics of games and demos
better than the existing C64 emulators. Therefore Frodo has relatively
high system requirements: It should only be run on systems with at
least a PowerPC/Pentium/68060. But on the other hand, Frodo can
display raster effects correctly that only result in a flickering mess
with other emulators.
Frodo comes in three flavours: The "normal" Frodo with a line-based
emulation, the improved line-based emulation "Frodo PC", and the
single-cycle emulation Frodo SC that is slower but far more
compatible.
In addition to a precise 6510/VIC emulation, Frodo features a
processor-level 1541 emulation that is even able to handle about 95%
of all fast loaders. There is also a faster 1541 emulation for four
drives in .d64/x64 disk images, .t64/LYNX archives, or directories of
the host system.
This is an Oriented Object module that calculates a future value by using
existing values. The new value is calculated by using linear regression.
In scroll, you're a bookworm that's stuck on a scroll. You have to dodge
between words and use spells to make your way down the page as the scroll
is read. Go too slow and you'll get wound up in the scroll and crushed.
Fetchmail is a full-featured IMAP/POP2/POP3/APOP/KPOP/ETRN/ODMR client with
easy configuration, daemon mode, forwarding via SMTP or local MDA, and
superior reply handling. It is used to handle intermittent email connections
by acting as a coupling that seamlessly batch forwards fetched mail from your
mail server to your local delivery system, allowing you to read it with your
favourite mail user agent. Fetchmail also includes useful spam filtering and
multi-user functions.
A typical use of fetchmail is to connect to your ISP's POP3 server,
downloading your mail into the INBOX on your local computer. You may then
read the mail, offline if you want, using pine, mutt, or any standard mail
user agent.
c-nocem - NoCeM for C News and INN
This is a program for the easy and efficient application of the NoCeM
protocol on the news spool. Which means, articles for which a NoCeM
with "action=hide" is accepted, will be deleted from your news system
as if they had been cancelled. With the installation described below,
these will be processed as fast as possible and should work like real
cancels.
Unlike the standard implementation of NoCeM, this version is optimized
for the most common case of "spam cancels". In fact, it can do nothing
else. It can not be run by a normal user, it does not need or
manipulate state like .newsrc files, it processes only "hide" actions,
and that only by actually deleting the articles.
c-nocem is designed for easy setup and fast run and needs no
maintenance.
Aften is an audio encoder which generates compressed audio streams based
on ATSC A/52 specification. This type of audio is also known as AC-3 or
Dolby(R) Digital and is one of the audio codecs used in DVD-Video
content.
This Input Handler verifies that it is dealing with a reasonable date.
Reasonably means anything that Date::Manip thinks is sensible, so you
could use any of (for example): "December 12, 2001" "12th December, 2001"
"2001-12-12" "next Tuesday" "third Wednesday in March"
See Date::Manip for much more information on what date formats are
acceptable.
The resulting date will be a Date::Simple object. Date::Simple for more
information on this.
