Bug#163401: ITP: dazuko -- module for 3rd party file access control

  Description : module for 3rd party file access control

This project provides a kernel module, which provides 3d-party applications
an interface for file access control. It was originally developed by H+BEDV
Datentechnik GmbH to be used for on-access virus scanning. Other uses 
include a file-access monitor/logger or external security implementations. 
It operates by intercepting file-access calls and passing the file
information to a 3rd-party application. The 3rd-party application then has the
opportunity to tell the kernel module to allow or deny the file-access. The
3rd-party application also receives information about the file, type of 
access, process id, and user id.

  Description : 32 bit pascal compiler

Free Pascal (aka FPK Pascal) is a 32 bit pascal compiler. It is available for 
different processors (Intel 80386 and compatibles and Motorola 680x0) and 
operating systems (Linux, FreeBSD, DOS, Win32, OS/2, BeOS, SunOS (Solaris), QNX 
and Classic Amiga).

The language syntax is semantically compatible with TP 7.0 as well as most 
versions of Delphi (classes, rtti, exceptions, ansistrings). Furthermore Free 
Pascal supports function overloading, operator overloading and other such 
features.

Description: Free Pascal Compiler
 The Free Pascal Compiler is a Turbo Pascal 7.0 and Delphi compatible 32bit
 Pascal Compiler. It comes with fully TP 7.0 compatible run-time library.
 Some extensions are added to the language, like function overloading. Shared
 libraries can be linked and created. Basic Delphi support is already
 implemented (classes,exceptions,ansistrings). This package contains
 the commandline compiler. You need at least the RTL package before you
 can start compiling anything.

Bug#163455: ITP: gnuchess-book -- Opening book for gnuchess

2002-10-05 Thread Lukas Geyer
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

Description: Opening book for gnuchess
 This is the opening book for gnuchess. It was formerly distributed
 together with gnuchess, now it has been separated due to size and
 architecture-independence. It is recommended that you install it
 if you want to use gnuchess.

Upstream URL is ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/chess/book_1.00.pgn.gz

License is Public Domain.

The book was part of the gnuchess source until version 5.02, since
then it is also not part of the gnuchess Debian package anymore. It
used to stall the slower buildd's but along with the format of the
binary book also the algorithm of building it has changed, and it is
now several orders of magnitude faster.

Regarding the license, there was a short thread on -legal on it, and I
finally got the following from Stuart Cracraft, who put the book
together.

  We need to keep the book. It is not acceptable that the book not be
  included with GNU Chess. GNU Chess strength based on quality of
  moves early in the game as well as building up significant time for
  middle-game computation are drastically halved in the absence of a
  solid book.

  I personally built the GNU Chess book from a large set of FREE game
  collections from the University of Pittsburgh chess server. These
  are NOT copyrighted and are PUBLIC. I also wrote the code for the
  GNU Chess book without any reference at all to any other author.

  It is GNU Chess code and PUBLIC book that is non-copyrightable.

  --Stuart

I have contacted the maintainer of the gnuchess package several times
about adding a package for the opening book, but have received no
comments on this suggestion. In order for the book to be useful, bug
#144705 has to be addressed. I intend to NMU gnuchess if this one
(and, by the way, also #162701) is not fixed in the near future.

  Description : Database Independent Abstraction Layer for C

libdbi implements a database-independent abstraction layer in C, similar
to the DBI/DBD layer in Perl. Writing one generic set of code,
programmers can leverage the power of multiple databases and multiple
simultaneous database connections by using this framework.
