=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
LinkController is a system for checking and repairing links. It is
designed to use a database and store status information about pages
over a period of time so that the user isn't bothered by pages that
just happen to be down at the time the program is run. It is also
designed to be scalable to very large web sites, includes a web
interface (through configurable CGI programs), emacs integration,
command line queries etc.
http://scotclimb.org.uk/software/linkcont/
The version being released now should work well enough to be useful.
The software has not been widely tested so can be considered alpha.
Furthermore many of the internal library names used are expected to
change soon.
The entire LinkController system is covered by the General Public
License. Some of the libraries used are in the public domain or may
be distributed under the Artistic License. The distribution is
currently available in the following formats

Dear users of fiendish C++ technologies for listening to the radio,
RadioActive is a GTK---based radio program for radio tuner cards
supported by the Video4Linux system. A new release is available at
http://cactus.rulez.org/projects/radioactive/
It is basically the same as the 1.0 release, with some auxillary
enhancements:
* Keyboard control, also enables infra-red remote controlling
(see README.lirc) (Chun-Chung Chen)
* No longer needs separate ~/.radioactive/ directory; stores
station information in the ~/.gnome/RadioActive file
(old station information is automatically imported)
* New translations: es (Cesar Perez), it (Francesco Brisa),
sv (Christian Rose)
* Updated translations: tr (Fatih Demir)
* Build fixes
RadioActive requires a Video4Linux-enabled kernel. This appeared
sometime in the 2.1 series, but the current stable (2.2) series is
just fine.
Besides the kernel, you'll also need GTK-- and Gnome-- version 1.2.0, GTK+
version 1.2 and October GNOME. The panel applet version also needs the
Panel-- library, available at http://cactus.rulez.org/projects/panelmm/
and soon in the GNOME 1.4 distribution.
Happy radioactivity,
Cactus
