Notion is a tiling tabbed window manager for X. This means the screen can be freely divided into tiles that contain the client windows. Multiple client windows can occupy the same tile; in that case they will be tabbed, much like browser tabs. This way, windows will not overlap and it becomes easier to manage your screen real estate. Its functionality can be configured and even extended with Lua scripts. Various scripts are available, such as for NetWM features and multihead support.
Changes: This is the first release of Notion after the fork of Ion3. The authors have tried not to introduce any regressions with respect to Ion3. The most prominent changes are the addition of a "lazy_resize" winprop option for applications which resize slowly, various EMWH (aka NetWM)-related features and fixes, fixes in tab width calculation, various improvements in multihead support (mod_xinerama and mod_xrandr), introduction of mod_xkbevents, and various cleanups to the build system, including improved autodetection of lua.

Apache Libcloud is a client library for interacting with many of the popular cloud server providers. It was created to make it easy for developers to build products that work between any of the services that it supports.
Changes: This release includes many improvements and new drivers, but the most important thing is a brand new DNS API. This API allows users to manage DNS services provided by many different providers. This release includes a driver for Linode DNS and Zerigo DNS. This will hopefully be expanded in future releases with new drivers for providers such as Amazon and Rackspace.

DocBook Doclet creates DocBook XML and class diagrams from Javadoc comments, converts HTML to DocBook, and transfoms DocBook XML into various output formats. It consists of a complete DocBook distribution containing schemas and the DocBook XSL stylesheets. It also integrates Apache FOP as the XSL:FO processor. A Swing application is used to customize the doclet and most of the DocBook XSL parameters and to start the transformations.
Changes: Bugfixes and GUI improvements.

white_dune is a graphical VRML97/X3DV editor, simple NURBS/Superformula 3D modeller, animation tool, and VRML97/X3DV commandline compiler in development. VRML97 (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) is the ISO standard for displaying 3D data over the Web via browser plugins ("HTML for realtime 3D"). X3DV is the direct successor of VRML97. VRML97 and X3DV have support for animation, real-time interaction, and multimedia (images, movies, and sounds). white_dune can read, create, and display VRML97/X3DV files and let the user change the scenegraph/fields. It also has support for stereoscopic view via "quadbuffer"-capable stereo visuals, and support for 3D input devices like a joystick, spaceball, or magnetic tracker.
Changes: This release adds a "WonderlandImportJava" extension node. It fixes a bug in NurbsSet/NurbsGroup conversion. It fixes a problem with missing checks of wonderland export path. It fixed problem with generating wrong variable names on C/C++/Java export of IndexedFaceSet nodes. It adds a 4kids animation menu to the white_dune main GUI. It adds a "search Interpolator" menupoint.

bibEC Process Card is a class that processes
credit card payments via one of the multiple
supported payment gateways. Currently,
these include Plug and Pay, Authorize.net, ViaKlix, Paynet, and other minor gateways. Changing between payment gateways is mostly a matter of changing the class constructor parameter. It provides a payment gateway independent API with functions for logging the payment activity, setting authentication credentials, submitting requests, and retrieving the results. Submissions are performed securely when possible using SSL or Curl.
Changes: This release adds VirtualMerchant and has been adapted to the new ssl_cvv2cvc2_indicator standards.

SIP is a tool to generate C++ interface code for Python. It is similar to SWIG, but uses a different interface format. It was used to build PyQt and PyKDE, and has support for the Qt signal/slot mechanism.
Changes: This release adds the %DefaultDocstringFormat directive. It adds the format argument to the %Docstring directive. %ConvertToSubClassCode can now cause a restart of the conversion process using a different requested type. ‘*’ and ‘&’ are now supported as unary operators in expressions used in the values of default arguments. The /Transfer/ annotation can now be used with the /Array/ annotation to prevent the freeing of the temporary array of pointers.

etm is an acronym for Event and Task Manager. It provides a simple, intuitive format for using plain text files to store data, a command line interface for viewing stored information in a variety of convenient ways, and a cross-platform, wx(Python)-based GUI for creating and modifying items as well as viewing them. Displayed items can be grouped by date, context, keyword, or project and can be filtered in various ways. A display of busy and free times is also supported, as is a ledger view of time spent that is suitable for client billing. Alarms are supported for events and repetition for both events and tasks in a powerful and flexible manner.
Changes: This release fixes a bug in which begin_date would default to the date at which etm was started instead of the current date. It changes the documentation to include the omit switch ‘d’ for all day events. It replaces hours_tenths in etmrc with file_totals_fmt and display_totals_fmt. Both belong to [1,2,3] where 1) use hours and tenths, 2) use hours and minutes, and 3) use minutes. Use of the i_calendar module has been replaced with the vobject module. When jumping to a date in the GUI, this version will leave existing option settings other than the begin date unchanged.
