JumpBox for OTRS is a virtual appliance for OTRS. OTRS is a ticket request system (also known as a trouble ticket system) with many features to manage customer telephone calls and email messages. The JumpBox for OTRS allows anyone to be up and running with this system on any OS in under a minute. The virtualized nature of a JumpBox makes it trivial to move across OSes and hosting environments. And with features like built-in automated backups, it's the easiest way to deploy and manage OTRS.

This JumpBox is now running on the production release of the v.1.1 platform and includes several enhancements. Most notably, this includes built-in automated backups to Amazon S3, integrated Web stats for the application, a GUI-based SSL cert configuration tool, a GUI-based method for configuring an email relay, and an update of the underlying OS to Ubuntu Base 8.04 LTS.

ICU provides a Unicode implementation, with functions for formatting numbers, dates, times, and currencies (according to locale conventions, transliteration, and parsing text in those formats). It provides flexible patterns for formatting messages, where the pattern determines the order of the variable parts of the messages, and the format for each of those variables. These patterns can be stored in resource files for translation to different languages. Included are more than 100 codepage converters for interaction with non-unicode systems.

ucanvcam is a cross-platform framework for building virtual cameras. Virtual cameras offer the same interface as regular cameras to client applications (such as Skype), but provide user-generated or user-modified imagery rather than imagery directly from a camera. While ucanvcam comes with a set of special effects, the main intent is to make building virtual cameras easier for people without OS-specific knowledge, so they can focus purely on image processing. License: GNU General Public License v2 Changes:
The main addition was to support the "picmix" effect, where animations created with Blender can be used as surfaces for the webcam image.

phpfspot allows you to present a photo collection prepared in F-Spot in Web browsers.

CODESH (COllaborative DEvelopment SHell) is an automatic persistent logbook for sessions of personal command line work. It records what and how is being done, for private use/reuse and for sharing selected parts with collaborators. It is an intelligent shell that automatically logs user's shell sessions. Sessions are uniquely tagged and stored in local or distributed backend repositories (ASCII flat file or Subversion or CVS based) and can be extracted and reproduced at any time by the user who created the session or by collaborators located anywhere in the world. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
The focus of this version is the distributed computing (remote) aspects of CODESH. A new subdirectory "remote" is introduced. It contains sample scripts showing how to set up remote (client/server based) Subversion, CVS, and ASCII backends, along with detailed documentation. The scripts can be used not only to set up CODESH backends, but general purpose remote Subversion or CVS pserver repositories as well. As usual, extreme caution and studying the documentation in advance is recommended before setting up servers.
