This is South, intelligent schema migrations for Django apps.
South is:
* Intelligent; it knows if you've missed out a migration or two
* Database independent, so there's no hassle if you need to move databases.
* Easy; it can write migrations for you, and it takes about a minute to
convert your app over to use South.
* Designed for a pluggable Django world; you can declare dependencies
between apps so they all migrate together correctly, and you can still
use syncdb for your non-migrated apps without it interfering.
* Useful for data too; you can write migrations to transform legacy data.
* Better (we think, anyway) than the alternatives.
Slony-I is enterprise-level "master to multiple slaves"
replication system with cascading and failover.
The big picture for the development of Slony-I is to build
a master-slave system that includes all features and
capabilities needed to replicate large databases to a
reasonably limited number of slave systems.
Slony-I is developed as a system for data centers and backup
sites, where the normal mode of operation is that all nodes
are available.
Differences from 1.2 stream
- Removal of TABLE ADD KEY
- It drops all support for databases prior to PostgreSQL version 8.3.

Tomboy is a desktop note-taking application for Linux and Unix. Simple
and easy to use, but with potential to help you organize the ideas and
information you deal with every day.
The key to Tomboy's usefulness lies in the ability to relate notes and
ideas together. Using a WikiWiki-like linking system, organizing ideas
is as simple as typing a name. Branching an idea off is easy as pressing
the Link button. And links between your ideas won't break, even when
renaming and reorganizing them.

desktop environment or exotic language necessary.
* Will run on most Unix-based systems
* Qt 4 GUI, plus command line.
* Searches most common document types, emails and their attachments.

The ultimate replacement for spreadsheets, mind mappers, outliners, PIMs, text
editors and small databases.
Suitable for any kind of data organization, such as Todo lists, calendars,
project management, brainstorming, organizing ideas, planning, requirements
gathering, presentation of information, etc.
It's like a spreadsheet, immediately familiar, but much more suitable for
complex data because it's hierarchical.
It's like a mind mapper, but more organized and compact.
It's like an outliner, but in more than one dimension.
It's like a text editor, but with structure.
Xwrits reminds you to take wrist breaks for prevention or management of
repetitive stress injuries. When you should take a break, it pops up an
X window, the warning window. You click on the warning window, then
take a break. The window changes appearance while you take the break.
it changes again when your break is over. Then you just resume typing.
Xwrits hides itself until you should take another break.
The typetime option changes the amount of time between breaks, and the
breaktime option changes the length of a break. The defaults are 55
minutes and 5 minutes, respectively.
Bennu is a high level open source game development suite which
focuses on modularity and portability, making it a perfect choice
for cross-platform game development.
Although officialy it is only supported on Windows, Linux and GP2X
Wiz (on the right), Bennu can run on multiple other platforms,
including *BSD, MacOSX and other consoles such as the Wii, Dingoo
A320, GP2X, or the classic Xbox.
This makes it really fun to code in Bennu: the game can be played
on you computer AND your console!
proto (google code name r-proto) is an R package which facilitates
a style of programming known as prototype-based programming.
Prototype-based programming is a type of object oriented (OO)
programming in which classes and objects are unified into a single
concept, prototypes. This makes proto and prototye programming
simpler than the usual OO model yet it retains the OO features of
inheritance (known as delegation in the prototype model) and OO
dispatch. Applications, News, Additional Information sources, Proto
Bugs and Avoiding R Bugs sections are given below while associated
