About: jSieve is a Java implementation of the Sieve mail filtering language defined by RFC 3028. Sieve is an extensible mail filtering language. Its limited expressiveness (no loops or variables and no tests with side effects) allows user created scripts to be run safely on email servers. Sieve is targeted at the final delivery phase (where an incoming email is transferred to a user's mailbox). jSieve is implemented as a language processor that can be plugged into any Internet mail application to add Sieve support.
About: PushToTest TestMaker is a platform for real-time monitoring and governance of information systems. Software developers use TestMaker turn their unit tests into functional tests that run on their development machine. TestMaker includes Wizards and Recorders to automatically build tests and supports a variety of languages to build tests, including Java, .NET, Jython, Groovy, PHP, Ruby, and many others. It supports SOA, Web Service, AJAX, and REST services using HTTP, HTTPS, SOAP, XML-RPC, and the email protocols. The TestMaker test runtime environment automatically turns these same functional tests into load tests, scalability and performance tests, regression tests, and service monitors for QA technicians, IT operations managers, and CIOs. Changes: This release has a new results analysis engine, Selenium IDE/RC for AJAX testing, multiple target monitoring, Web debugging utilities, new tutorials, and new data production libraries.
About: The Linux Replicated High Availability Manager (Linuxha.net) allows the creation of clusters for application high availability through data replication. Currently, clusters are limited to two nodes, but multiple applications can be hosted and failed-over between the nodes. The software uses DRBD to provide the data replication facillity. Changes: This version is based on DRBD 8.2.6, and supports the authentication and checksum features this release offers. It also includes some minor bugfixes.
About: The idea of Imaginary Microcomputers is to design simple computers, comparable to vintage home computers, large numbers of which are simulated on a PC in parallel. The machines connect to each other with the goal of seeing efficient structures grow spontaneously, like crystals. Changes: VM persistence now also includes I/O RAM. ALU now supports multiplication.
About: mime4j provides a parser, MimeStreamParser, for e-mail message streams in plain RFC822 and MIME format. The parser uses a callback mechanism to report parsing events such as the start of an entity header, the start of a body, etc. If you are familiar with the SAX XML parser interface you should have no problem getting started with mime4j. The parser only deals with the structure of the message stream and won't do any decoding of base64 or quoted-printable encoded header fields and bodies. This is intentional - the parser should only provide the most basic functionality needed to build more complex parsers. Changes: This release brings a number of significant improvements in terms of supported capabilities, flexibility, and performance. It has a revised and improved public API, support for parsing of 'headless' messages transmitted using non-SMTP transports such as HTTP, reduced external dependencies, improved parsing performance (up to 10x), support for RFC1864, RFC2045, RFC2183, RFC2557, and RFC3066, and a revised packaging and exception hierarchy.
