The SVGFig package lets you draw mathematical figures in Scalable Vector Graphics format (SVG), using the Python language. As a tool, its usefulness lies somewhere between freehand drawing programs, which don't give you quantitative control over your figures, and traditional plotting packages, which fit your data into a prescribed template. SVGFig allows you to draw anything you can express in Python. SVGFig is particularly suited to handle non-linear geometries. All lines, including the coordinate axis, curve if passed through a non-linear coordinate transformation, and coordinate systems can be nested in trees. This generalizes all the tools necessary for making plots, so it is easy to create polar plots of radial data, Hammer-Aitoff projections of the sky, translations in hyperbolic spaces, or experiment with new representations. SVGFig also maintains a convenient representation of SVG images as Python constructs, so you can load graphics from SVG files, dissect them, manipulate them with an automated script, and save them in batch.

SANE ("Scanner Access Now Easy") is a universal scanner interface. The value of such a universal interface is that it allows writing just one driver per image acquisition device rather than one driver for each device and application. So, if you have three applications and four devices, traditionally you'd have had to write 12 different programs. With SANE, this number is reduced to seven: the three applications plus the four drivers. Of course, the savings get even bigger as more and more drivers and/or applications are added. sane-frontends contains frontends to SANE including xscanimage and xcam. Xscanimage is a GTK-based application for scanning images that can also be used as a GIMP-plugin, and Xcam is used to get images from cameras supported by SANE.

This class is a container class for numbers with a number of associated symmetric and asymmetric errors. It overloads practically all common arithmetic operations and trigonometric functions to propagate the errors. It can do proper scientific rounding (as explained in more detail below in the documentation of the significant_digit() method). You can use Math::BigFloat objects as the internal representation of numbers in order to support arbitrary precision calculations. Errors are propagated using Gaussian error propagation. With a notable exception, the test suite covers way over ninety percent of the code. The remaining holes are mostly difficult-to-test corner cases and sanity tests. The comparison routines are the exception for which there will be more extensive tests in a future release.

Freevo is an open-source digital video jukebox (PVR, DVR) based on Linux in addition to a number of open-source audio/video tools. MPlayer is used to play audio and video files. MPlayer is an excellent media player that can play most popular file formats. Freevo can be used both for a standalone PVR computer with a TV+remote, as well as on a regular desktop computer using the monitor and keyboard. Freevo is easy to download and install for new users. Most hardware is supported (graphic boards, sound cards and video capture devices). The Freevo core is under heavy development. It is mostly written in the Python programming language which is very well suited for high-level control applications like Freevo.

OpenQuicktime aims to be a portable library for handling Apple's QuickTime(TM) popular media files on Unix-like environments. This project was firstly designed to allow the porting of the 3ivx codec on any Unix, but is now a completely separate and fully Open Source project. Details: - OpenQuicktime library contains no embedded codecs but has a plugin system to dynamically load audio and video codecs. - OpenQuicktime contains no colorspace conversion algorithm. - OpenQuicktime is fully portable and fully configurable with all the autoconfigure and automake magic we have been able to add. - OpenQuicktime supports compressed headers (decoding only for the moment). - OpenQuicktime supports Quicktime Sound System version 2. - OpenQuicktime can support any inputs and outputs (file, HTTP, FTP, RTP, ...), in fact the functions used to read, write and seek are overloadable. - OpenQuicktime has an overloadable plugin mechanism. This is a complex feature which enables any application to use its own codecs instead of the OpenQuicktime ones.

This is a plugin package for Nagios. Quoting from the main Nagios package: Nagios is a host and service monitor designed to inform you of network problems before your clients, end-users or managers do. It has been designed to run under the Linux operating system, but works fine under most *NIX variants as well. The monitoring daemon runs intermittent checks on hosts and services you specify using external "plugins" which return status information to Nagios. When problems are encountered, the daemon can send notifications out to administrative contacts in a variety of different ways (email, instant message, SMS, etc.). Current status information, historical logs, and reports can all be accessed via a web browser.

Xymon is a system for monitoring servers and networks. It has a great deal of inspiration from the Big Brother monitor, but unlike Big Brother it is designed to work well whether you need to monitor small network with just a handful of hosts, or large networks with thousands of hosts. Xymon is the successor to the bbgen toolkit, which has been available as an add-on to Big Brother since late 2002. The name change was decided upon when Xymon acquired enough functionality to be a stand-alone product. The tools that formed the bbgen toolkit are still present in Xymon and are quite important for it, so if you have used bbgen before, Xymon will seem quite familiar. This is the client.

AxPoint is a Perl module that uses the PDFLib module and the pdflib library to generate PDF based presentations from XML data sources. It has the following features: - Ability to create slideshows with your choice of background image - Slideshows break down into slidesets, or not at your choice. - Slides can show bullet points, source code (fixed font), or images. - Slides can have transition effects (dissolve, box, wipe, etc) - All elements of a slide can transition in too. - Text on slides supports bold, italics, and colours. Colours can be any one of the 16 HTML colours, or defined as hex RGB values. - Output uses the standard XML::SAX::Writer consumer classes, allowing you to output direct to a file, or to a string, or however you need to. Very useful for dynamic web based presentations. - PDF bookmarks allow direct navigation to any slide. - Using PDF allows you to go "Full Screen", even on Linux - Image formats supported include GIF, JPEG, PNG and TIFF
