GAUL 0.1846 - Now for Windows!
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=305677

    San Diego, CA, August 27, 2003 -- The GAUL project announces the latest
    release of GAUL(TM) - the Genetic Algorithm Utility Library, a leading
    open-source programming library for evolutionary computation. GAUL
    0.1846 contains significant enhancements to its features and usability.
    This is the first version to officially support the MS Windows
    environment, in addition to the prior supported UNIX and UNIX-like
    operating systems. An already impressive set of features are further
    enhanced by the new version of GAUL. Support for the MS Windows
    platform bolsters a long-time aim of the GAUL project to create a
    robust and portable framework for evolutionary algorithms. "Development
    of a native Windows version of GAUL is a major milestone," says Stewart
    Adcock, Lead Developer of the GAUL project. "Programmers requiring a
    feature-complete, but portable, framework for evolutionary computation
    now have the open-source GAUL as a viable option." GAUL is already
    applied in many important domains, including protein structure
    prediction and drug discovery. With release of this new version, GAUL
    becomes available to a larger community of research scientists and
    software developers. About GAUL: The Genetic Algorithm Utility Library
    (or, GAUL for short) is an OSI certified programming library for
    evolutionary computation. It is a copyrighted work released under the
    terms of the GNU General Public License. GAUL is deployed in several
    institutions and corporations, on hardware ranging from low-end desktop

Ultra-Performance UDPForwarder 3.0 
http://freshmeat.net/releases/134489/

    UDPForwarder listens on multiple ports to forward incoming UDP

    notice the clients' real IP. It was initially designed to work as a
    transparent relay for online game traffic (static routing). It might be
    useful for hiding IPs or tricking firewalls. Its motivation and
    advantage over existing tools is its uncompromising focus on
    performance, which is crucial when dealing with hundreds and thousands
    of datagrams per second without allowing any rise in response time.

Slashcode
How to Allow Longer Subjects?
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/08/30/1923252

    An anonymous reader asks: "By default there is a limit on how long a
    poster's subject can be. Is there a way to get beyond this limitation,
    so that the subject lines for comments and stories can be longer?"
    Sure, it's easy... this is a good introduction to using MySQL to
    customize Slash. 

Slash on Mac OS X
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/08/12/158239

    This is how I installed Slash on Mac OS X Server 10.2.6 on August 8,
    2003. YMMV. This is not intended to be a tutorial, it is a log of what
    I did for my system. You may wish to use a release version of perl, to
    include different Apache modules, to compile with DSO, etc. Whatever.
    If someone wants to take some or all of this information and include it
    in a more comprehensive guide, be my guest. 

How to Force Previewing?
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/08/08/1931216

    An anonymous user writes: "I'd like to see an option added to enable a
    user to force themselves to preview a post before they actually post
    the comment. At the moment, a user is required to preview a story
    submission before they post it, but there is no way for this
    requirement to be there for standard posts. I often find myself hitting
    'submit' when I wish I'd previewed first. I know that a 'force post
    preview' option could be added to the options section and implemented
    in SLASH *very* easily, which would simply remove the 'Submit' button
    from the initial post screen... so could someone do it? I'd do it
    myself if I was able to update the CVS source :-)" This is a one-liner
    change... details follow... 

YogaCircle.net (New Yoga Slash Site)
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/07/28/0339211

    Well this should be a first. A Yoga base Slash site. Check it out, if
    you have any questions or comments let me know. Thanks for the code. 

csdaily.com
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/07/28/0337226

    Yet another Slash site, Computer Science Daily News. Aims to be a
    resource for Computer Science professionals, researchers, students and
    instructors. Hopefully this fills a niche, computer science
    developments seem to be very decentralized, and hard to find. Slash
    seems to be working out nicely, though I'm still learning the ropes...

Slash on server running Livejournal?
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/07/24/0035257

    Maybe this is the wrong venue to ask in, and I'm sorry if it is, but
    this question has been nagging me for about the past week or so. I have
    a personal server running Slackware 8 with a custom-compiled Apache
    1.3.27 (with the appropriate mod_perl) and MySQL 4.0.13. This server is
    currently running the LiveJournal server code and works quite well at
    this. I'm interested in attempting to set up slash for personal use
    (the Livejournal code is running for personal use as well), and herein
    lies the question. Can slash be run on the same server in another
    VirtualHost without having a separate apache installation/process and
    doing some fancy trick with mod_rewrite? Or am I asking too much? I
    will be happy to provide any further info anyone needs through e-mail
    (the e-mail link above is NOT spam-armored at all).

Tuxedo.org Now running Slashcode
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/07/23/2014232

    Tuxedo.org is now running Slashcode. I should have done this a couple
    of years ago... Most recent story is Linus Torvalds Comments on SCO
    Lawsuit and Linux. Hope you all enjoy the new site! --Chuck Peters 

Best hosting service for Slash?
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/07/23/1449209

    I'm going to be doing some "big things" with Slashcode but am
    interested in going through someone to set up Slashcode and the server,
    so that I can just right in and start building the site. What are the
    best hosting services out there? Will they set up Slash for me? What
    kinds of experiences have people had? 

Dissociated Press goes Slash
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/07/23/1442252

    After a bit of poking and prodding, I've converted Dissociated Press to
    Slashcode (2.2.6). Works great!
