GNetwork is a networking wrapper written in pure C against the Glib/GObject object framework. The intention here is to provide a useful and easy-to-develop-against sockets wrapper for GNOME2 & GTK+ 2.0 programs which require TCP/IP connection capabilities. It can be used by programs which do not use GNOME or GTK+ anyways,however. It is NOT recommended or intended for high-load server situations, just user applications which need TCP/IP networking. Proxies are supported completely transparently, using the same settings as gnome-vfs. -- The libgnetwork README

libnatpmp is an attempt to make a portable and fully compliant implementation of the protocol for the client side. It is based on non blocking sockets and all calls of the API are asynchronous. It is therefore very easy to integrate the NAT-PMP code to any event driven code.

libgweather is a library to access weather information from online services for numerous locations. libgweather isn't supported in the devel platform, which means OS vendors won't guarantee the API/ABI long-term, but authors of open source apps should feel free to use libgweather as users can always recompile against a new version.

Libwebsockets is a lightweight pure C library built to use minimal CPU and memory resources, and provide fast throughput in both directions as client or server.

ZeroMQ - Distributed Computing Made Simple * The socket library that acts as a concurrency framework. * Carries messages across inproc, IPC, TCP, and multicast. * Connect N-to-N via fanout, pubsub, pipeline, request-reply. * Asynch I/O for scalable multicore message-passing apps. Version 4 Features: * New wire level protocol, ZMTP/3.0 * New security framework with PLAIN and CURVE mechanisms * New ZMQ_STREAM socket type

libmateweather is a library to access weather information from online services for numerous locations. libmateweather isn't supported in the devel platform, which means OS vendors won't guarantee the API/ABI long-term, but authors of open source apps should feel free to use libmateweather as users can always recompile against a new version.

The libmaxminddb library provides a C library for reading MaxMind DB files, including the GeoIP2 databases from MaxMind. This is a custom binary format designed to facilitate fast lookups of IP addresses while allowing for great flexibility in the type of data associated with an address.

Libmediawiki is a KDE C++ interface for MediaWiki-based web services such as wikipedia.org.

The MXP library implements the parser for the MUD eXtension protocol. This protocol aims to provide a better experience for MUD players.

liboping is a C library to generate ICMP echo requests, better known as 'ping packets'. It is intended for use in network monitoring applications or applications that would otherwise need to fork ping(1) frequently. Included is a sample application, called oping, which demonstrates the library's abilities. It is like ping, ping6, and fping rolled into one. Version 1.4.0, a second example application, noping, provides an ncurses-based front-end to liboping. Using curses windows it is able to display the ping statistics online 'live'. An aberrant behavior detection highlights all round-trip times that are unusually high or low.
