Bonobo-Media 0.1: "Planet Of The Apes: The Musical"
===================================================
The initial release of Bonobo-Media is available at
http://cactus.rulez.org/projects/bonobo-media
What is Bonobo-Media?
- ---------------------
Bonobo-Media is a set of Bonobo interfaces and a GTK+/libbonobo-based
implementation for the the control of generic multimedia playback. It
currently supports audio and video streams. Support for tuners is also
planned.
What is Bonobo-Media not?
- -------------------------
It is not a solution for actually delivering the media content to
the end-user. You should use other infrastructures like the GNOME
Multimedia Framework for that, ideally, from a Bonobo-Media stream
provider.
What's up with this release?
- ----------------------------
This is the first release of Bonobo-Media. It includes:
* The CORBA interface definition of Bonobo::Media::Stream, ::Audio,
and ::Video
* A GtkObject/C-based generic implementation of these interfaces
(just subclass the provided objects to create new stream providers)
* A GTK+ widget for stream control, and one for media content control
(including audio and video)
* A Bonobo control wrapper around said widget, implementing
PersistFile and PersistStream so you can load your media content
directly to the control
But wait, there's more! Download now, and get not just one, but
TWO stream providers in the package!
* An SMPEG-based audio stream provider (for playback of MP3 files)
* An Ogg Vorbis-based audio stream provider
Of course, in the tradition of `Special Offers Available Only If You
Download Now', only Vorbis works 100%: the SMPEG provider doesn't
use EsounD yet (this means the actual sound playback will occur on the
machine where the factory is run)
Who should use this release?
- ----------------------------
It's a stable release, the interfaces and the API are never going to
change, that's why it's called a 1.0 release!
Oh wait, it is _not_ called a 1.0. Guess that means you shouldn't
expect it to show any sign of maturity. In fact, I'm pretty sure some
aspects of the interfaces aren't perfectly `right' yet.
So, you should only use this release if you want to experiment with
it, or if you are ready to change your code at the time of the next
Bonobo-Media release.

Melbourne, Australia - January 19th, 2001:
With Open Source becoming an important part of the IT landscape a common
problem is where researchers and business professionals can go to begin
to understand the fundamentals of Open Source development in a Commercial
environment without having to move through lots of onesided and unbalanced
papers.
TICons has now released CommercialOS.org to provide a solution to this
problem. CommercialOS at http://commercialos.org/ splits papers into
Articles, White Papers, Case Studies and References depending on what the
content is, and how balanced an argument the paper gives.
Contributions are invited and CommercialOS.org requires no other rights
to the papers apart from permission to publish online.

Subject: COMMERCIAL: 'Kanji Safari' software: A great Kana and Kanji learning game for up to
Date: Sun, 28 Jan 2001 16:10:47 GMT
Reply-To: service@lavasoft.com
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Kanji Safari is a fun and addictive Kana and Kanji learning game for up to 4
players which runs on MacOS, Windows 95/98/NT/2000 and Linux. It can be used by
students just starting Japanese who need to learn Hiragana and Katakana (the
Japanese phonetic alphabets), up to more advanced students who already know a
range of Kanji characters (the more complex characters derived from Chinese).
Each character in the Hiragana and Katakana tilesets comes with native Japanese
pronunciation, so you can learn the sounds of the Kana as you learn to recognise
how they are written. Each Kanji in the Kanji tilesets include the Kanji
character itself (drawn in a beautiful calligraphic style), it's English meaning
and it's primary Kana readings. Kanji Safari thus includes all the key
information you need to learn Japanese characters effectively.
Kanji Safari is very easy to set up and play, so is suitable for students of all
ages. You can use it as a simple matching game to reinforce your Japanese Kana
and Kanji skills by leaving the play area uncovered, or play challenging
multiplayer games with your friends which will test your memory to the limit!
This makes Kanji Safari a superb learning tool for students and schools, since
you can use it for self-study on your laptop or home computer, or up to four
students can use the same computer to play in the school language lab.
Kanji Safari is priced at only USD19.95 per license and versions are available
for MacOS, Windows 95/98/NT/2000 and Linux. Kanji Safari can thus be an
inexpensive, versatile and fun addition for school language labs with a mix of
different computer types. It also makes an excellent study aid for individual
students.

Subject: Announcing release 1.4 of the Market Analysis System
Date: Sun, 28 Jan 2001 16:19:57 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Version 1.4 of the Market Analysis System (MAS) for Linux systems is
now available. MAS is a software application that provides tools for
stock charting and analysis.
MAS is released as free software. You can read more about MAS and
download it at:
http://eiffel-mas.sourceforge.net/
MAS 1.4 includes the following changes:
GUI changes:
Added support for intraday data.
Screen layout improvements: Added bars in the right and bottom margins
and moved the date and numeric reference values to within these bars to
clean up the clutter they were causing when they were inside the graph.
Added display of reference values for indicators in the bottom right
margin - values for the last indicator selected are displayed.
Server changes:
Added database capability for the Linux version. MAS can now obtain
its market data from a database instead of from files, on both Linux
and Windows.
Extended validation of input data to be much more robust. Added strict
checking option to specify that all records with errors are to be discarded.
Added capability to handle intraday data. The server can now produce
10-, 15-, 20-, 30-minute, and hourly data from 5-minute data and the same
set plus 2-minute data from 1-minute data.
Improved the command-line interface for adding, editing, and removing
technical indicators, market analyzers, and market event registrants:
Added locking of persistent files to prevent problems when two MAS servers
are used to change the same files. Changed to allow the user to either
save or abort changes after editing - the previous version simply saved
the changes to disk when the process terminated.
Some technical information:
The MAS server is written in Eiffel. The GUI Client is written in Java
and should run on any system with a Java runtime environment (JRE).
Several utility scripts were written in Python.

23 January 2001
NEW STOCKMARKET ANALYSIS ASP FOR LINUX
Perth, Australia: – A new service on the World Wide Web enables Linux users
to access a full range of US stockmarket data and analysis tools via the
Internet.
The service, 3GÔ, can be found at www.mytradingtool.com. It can scan the
entire NASDAQ database in about 20 seconds looking for patterns in the price
data or signs of upward-trending activity. 3GÔ provides a range of analysis
tools and access to data for over 9000 equities traded on the NYSE, AMEX and
NASDAQ.
The user downloads a client software application which communicates with a
server based on BDG Australia’s web site. Each time the user starts the
application the client software self-checks to ensure it is the latest
version. If not the current version is automatically downloaded. The
advantage of ASP delivery for users is absence of software installation and
upgrades, and the need to update data on a daily basis, usually required by
market analysis software. Improvements to the service are delivered
automatically and continuously via the web, allowing the developers to
rapidly incorporate enhancements.
Paul Tetley, the Technical Manager of software developers BDG Australia says
users can chart stock prices, perform searches for market activity and
patterns in the price data, display indicators and save their own
preferences and watchlists onto the server for later retrieval. They can
also read other’s comments on a stock and submit their own comments.
The software was chosen as a finalist in the Business Software World 2000
competition.
“We entered our first development prototype, not expecting it to fare well
in its initial form, so we were quite surprised to place in the top 20” said
BDG Managing Director Mike von Bertouch.
The software uses Technical Analysis techniques to search and select stocks.
Technical Analysis is used by stock market professionals to predict likely
price movements from historical data.
“3G presents well understood concepts in an easy-to-use manner” said von
Bertouch. “It is a descendant of GOLDRUSH, a successful stand alone
application released by the company in 1999. GOLDRUSH was one of the first
applications to include pattern scanning of the price data as a standard
feature and its scanning is very fast by industry standards. 3G inherits
GOLDRUSH’S biggest advantage of ease of use.
“The 3G service currently available is only the beginning” said von
Bertouch. “BDG Australia has a very forward looking, market driven view of
its service development. It is currently creating training material and
advanced functionality which allows users to define their own scans and
indicators.
“Sophisticated options pricing and brokerage facilities are planned for
later this year.”
The 3G service uses the new Java WebStart product released by Sun
Microsystems at the end of December 2000.
“Java WebStart from Sun has enabled us to fundamentally improve delivery of
capability to our customers” said Tetley, “WebStart allows the company to
offer products to the Linux community that would previously not have been
contemplated.
“The cross-platform nature of Java allows us to concentrate on quality of
service, not developing to meet the specific needs of particular platforms”
he said.
3G is currently one of the few products available for Linux that is not a
software development tool. It was developed by the team at BDG Australia, a
company based in Perth, Western Australia.

=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
PIKT, Problem Informant/Killer Tool, v1.12.1 has been released.
PIKT, an innovative new paradigm for administering heterogeneous networked
workstations, is a cross-platform, multi-functional tool for monitoring
systems, reporting and fixing problems, and managing system configurations.
PIKT is quickly gathering potential as a serious security management system.
PIKT consists of an embedded scripting language with unique, labor-saving
features; a sophisticated script (and system config file) preprocessor,
scheduler, and installer; and other useful tools. PIKT is a category buster
with many, many different uses limited only by your ingenuity and imagination.
Version 1.12.1 introduces no new features but fixes many bugs, none of
them terribly serious but annoying enough if you encounter them. See
the distribution NEWS and ChangeLog files for details.
PIKT is distributed under the GNU General Public License. Available now
for GNU/Linux, AIX, FreeBSD, HP-UX, IRIX, OpenBSD, Solaris, and SunOS. For
more info, and complete source code, documentation, and data files, please
