Tiny COBOL Compiler release 0.61
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=309483

Gallery v1.4-pl1 released
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=309878

Can we help you?X

    Gallery v.1.4-pl1 has been released. Gallery is a slick, intuitive web     based photo gallery with authenticated users and privileged albums.     Easy to install, configure and use. Photo management includes automatic     thumbnails, resizing, rotation, etc. User privileges make this great     for communities. Version 1.4 premieres some major new features: Gallery     is now internationalized, and can be displayed in more than 20     languages, with more on the way! In addition, we've completely     overhauled the documentation and made it more accessible and more     informative. Other changes include ownership of individual album items,     not just of albums, and a slew of minor improvements and bugfixes.     Additional features new to Gallery 1.4 include: * Support for lossless     JPEG rotation, and new "flip photo" options * Image size and JPEG EXIF     data can be displayed below photos * Data loss prevented if disk space     is exceeded * Image dimensions and file size can be restricted *     Support for "*" wildcards in search field * Add items to front or back     of album * Tons of other feature enhancements and bugfixes Gallery     Remote v.1.1 is also now available. This new version now sports a     preferences dialogue. Also: Proxy and HTTPS support, ability to rotate     pictures before uploading them, a more efficient protocol for getting     the list of albums, and support for the "Extra Fields" functionality     introduced in Gallery 1.3.4.

NASM 0.98.38 is released
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=310061

    The most important change to 0.98.38 is that the broken ELF backend in     0.98.37 has (hopefully) been fixed. The Netwide Assembler, NASM, is an     80x86 assembler designed for portability and modularity. It supports a     range of object file formats, including Linux and NetBSD/FreeBSD a.out,     ELF, COFF, Microsoft 16-bit OBJ and Win32. It will also output plain     binary files. Its syntax is designed to be simple and easy to     understand, similar to Intel's but less complex. It supports Pentium,     P6, MMX, 3DNow!, SSE and SSE2 opcodes, and has macro capability. * Add     Makefile for 16-bit DOS binaries under OpenWatcom, and modify mkdep.pl     to be able to generate completely pathless dependencies, as required by     OpenWatcom wmake (it supports path searches, but not explicit paths.) *     Fix the STR instruction. * Fix the ELF output format, which was broken     under certain circumstances due to the addition of stabs support. *     Quick-fix Borland format debug-info for -f obj * Fix for %rep with no     arguments (#560568) * Fix concatenation of preprocessor function call     (#794686) * Fix long label causes coredump (#677841) * Use autoheader     as well as autoconf to keep configure from generating ridiculously long     command lines. * Make sure that all of the formats which support     debugging output actually will suppress debugging output when -g not     specified.

Updates to mp4live - testing help wanted http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=310093

    We're finished with the main updates to mp4live. Our in-house test has     been running for 10 days still maintaining audio/video sync. These     changes were accomplished by updating to the V4L2 driver, and updating     faac. These changes have been submitted to CVS on sourceforge. To use     them you must install v4L2 (server/mp4live has a new html file telling     you how we accomplished that). The MPEG4IP project provides an MPEG and     IETF standards-based system for encoding, streaming, and playing MPEG-4     encoded audio and video. We also require a seperate installation of the     faac package, like we did with lame. You must go to www.audiocoding.com     and download the latest faac. Then, before configuring or compiling,     un-tar the faac_mpeg4ip_add.tar in the faac directory. Then configure,     build and install faac. faac_mpeg4ip_add.tar is used to install the     faac.h file. We will be working with the faac guys to have that as part     of their package. Then configure and install mpeg4ip. Bill

KDE 3.1.3(a) RPMs moved to stable
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=310176

    The kde 3.1.3(a) packages have been moved to the stable repository. Get     'em while they're hot. The KDE for RedHat project intends to promote     the use of KDE and KDE-based applications on RedHat Linux. (3.1.4 is in     the works, and maybe, just maybe, we may see a preview of 3.2 showing     up in unstable in the not-too-distant future.).

JetBlue Gives Away Passenger Info To TSA? http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/09/18/0142221

Can't find what you're looking for?X

[0]Old Ben Franklin writes "In September of 2002, JetBlue Airways
[1]secretly gave the Transportation Security Administration the full
    travel records of 5 million JetBlue customers. This sensitive travel     data was then turned-over to a private security contractor for     analysis, the results of which were presented at a security conference     earlier this year and the analysis then posted on the Internet." This     comes after Wired News's [2]recent article on this matter, explaining     that "...the proposed government system to prevent terrorism by     color-coding airline passengers according to their risk level will be     tested using old passenger itineraries from JetBlue", but quoting a TSA     spokesman as saying that "currently only fake passenger data was being     used."

Half-Life 2 - A Linux User's Lament

    about the impending release of [1]Valve's [2]Half-Life 2. As a gamer     and a Linux user, I always get a little stirred up about the whole     Half-Life situation, where we have a dedicated server but no client. So     here's my [3]reflection on the sad situation, past and present. How     will the rest of the Linux gaming community react to the release of     Half-Life 2? Boot into Windows? Wait for [4]WINE or [5]WineX support?     Get the Xbox version? With so many Half-Life servers running on Linux,     will the same be true for Half-Life 2?" Links

When Does Website Monitoring Go Too Far? http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/09/18/015203

[0]jafiwam asks: "Recently, the IT department of the company I work for
    and a 3rd party monitoring and security firm got into a pissing match     about how much monitoring is too much. They either got a hold of a     customer list from a former employee or walked our IP space to find our     web hosting customers. They then proceeded to sell them monitoring     services for things such as server up-time, defacement detection, email     up-time and DNS testing. While I welcome anything that lets our     customers use the internet effectively, their set of monitoring servers     filled an entire 18 gig partition full of web server logs (causing the     server to crash on a weekend) and choked an email server with 40k some     messages that could not be delivered, and they failed to properly brief     the hosting customers about what would happen to their log analysis     software when faced with 99% traffic from a small set of IPs. These     things caused down-time, lost productivity and a damaged reputation.     What is appropriate for monitoring a web site and email server? Who     should be allowed to monitor? Where should the give and take lie in     this situation? I am interested in finding out what admin-on-the-street     has to say about this."

Yahoo Shutting Out Third-Party IM Clients? http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/09/17/2358240

If     you're a current Trillian user with a valid Yahoo ID, you probably     noticed the new welcome message: 'Yahoo! is upgrading to its newest     version of Yahoo! Messenger on September 24, 2003. The upgrade is part     of an ongoing process to continually enhance the overall quality of the     Yahoo! Messenger service for our millions of users'." Update: 09/18     01:17 GMT by [6]S: Trillian has [7]just released a patch that updates     the IM software "...to the newest Yahoo! and MSN protocols, to remove     the recent upgrade messages."

Verisign Typosquatter Explorer

    jelyon quotes[0] Seth Finkelstein's website "I have written a program "     Verisign Typosquatter Explorer" in order to examine [the Verisign]     suggestions [for mistyped domains]. Future data may be analyzed as     interest permits. Note tests with some domains seem to return results     which are not constant, i.e. differences when the program is run     repeatedly. This is not a program bug. Reloading the Verisign page also     changes which squat-suggested domains are displayed. I don't believe     it's an advertising rotation, but the behavior is similar to that     practice."

British Court Issues Bizarre Copyright Ruling http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/09/17/1548221

[0]dipfan writes "In a re-run of the Lotus v Borland case that went to
    the US Supreme Court, the High Court in London has allowed a
[1]copyright infringement battle between two rival airline booking
    programs to go to trial, despite agreement by all sides that the two     programs are written in different code. The airline [2] Easyjet is     being sued by software house [3]Navitaire, creators of an online     booking system called Openres, over Easyjet's booking system named     eRes, developed by [4]Bulletproof Technologies of California. Openres     was written in Cobol, while eRes was written in Visual Basic, and the     programs are also different in structure. But, according to the FT     article: 'Parallels had been drawn between appropriating the     "functional structure" of a computer system and commandeering the plot     of a book, the judge noted.' If Navitaire wins, then any program that     works like another program - even if written in different code - could     be vulnerable. What happened to the principle that you can't copyright     an idea? [5]Bulletproof is counter-suing Navitaire in the district of     Utah."
