JML 3.7 released
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=267409
This release of JML has many improvements over the earlier (3.6) release. The Java Modeling Language (JML) is a behavioral interface specification language that can be used to specify the behavior of Java modules. It combines the approaches of Eiffel and Larch, with some elements of the refinement calculus. Highlights include: - Much better support for refinement (although refinement does not yet work with jmlc), - Three new specification expressions have been added to permit specification of time and space. - A new tool, jmlspec, which is a specification skeleton generator. It takes a Java source file and can produce a file that one could use to add specifications to in a way that would refine the original. - The syntax of the refine clause has been simplified to refine "A.java"; where only a file and no classes are mentioned. Thanks to Clyde Ruby for this and to David Cok for the suggestion. - The jmldoc tool is now compatible with JDK 1.4. Note that J2SDK 1.3 is no longer supported by the tools. See the release change log (or the NEWS.txt file in the release) for more details.
PHP Surveyor release 0.95 beta
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=267374
Project aims to develop a fully functional Survey development & dataentry system. Including dataentry screen, public dataentry script, method for issuing tokens, emailing invitations & recording responses, basic statistical analysis and export facility. This release includes some incremental improvements - a changelog covering most of these is available from the project homepage. The biggest enhancement is the addition of 'mandatory' questions. This allows you, on a question by question basis, to set a question as mandatory, and require the participant to answer it before they can move away from the question. In the data-entry screen, the question is marked as being 'mandatory', however the survey can be submitted without an answer. This is to deal with dataentry of hardcopy surveys where the mandatory question has not been answered. The other major enhancement of this release is the capacity to track surveys. When a new survey is created, you are given the option of making it Anonymous, or not. If the survey is not anonymous, each response keeps a copy of the participants unique token. Using this you can track the response of each individual participant. From the 'tokens' screen, you can view the participants response, and from the 'browse' screen you can view the participants token information. As was the case for release 0.94, this is another "on the way" release. There are a few features still to be addd prior to the release of Version 1, and some continued tidying and bug-checking of the script still to be done. I would appreciate it if you could let me know about any bugs you find, or even just 'difficulties' you come across in using the script. Planned developments underway but not yet finished include a "all-in-one" public survey screen - so you can choose to present the survey on one single screen, rather than question by question.

Currently, it supports the formats HTML, PDF, PS, MP3, OGG, JPEG, GIF, PNG, RPM, ZIP, Real, QT and ASF. Also, various additional MIME types are detected.
