Bug#272753: RFP: sqlgrey -- Greylisting implementation for Postfix that uses SQL

  Description : Greylisting implementation for Postfix

SQLgrey is a postfix policy service implementing a greylisting policy.

SQLgrey is a fork of the postgrey greylisting service for Postfix.

SQLgrey is written in Perl and uses DBI to access an SQL database.

SQLgrey needs:

  * Perl,
  * DBI,
  * Net::Server::Multiplex,
  * MySQL, PostgreSQL or SQLite.

The main drawback of greylisting as it was done by postgrey was the
delaying of legit emails.

This is nearly solved by the auto-white-listing mechanisms built into
SQLgrey :

  * When a sender has been seen coming from a given IP address, it is
automatically accepted when coming again from the same IP address.
  * When several senders from the same domain have been seen coming
from the same IP address, senders from the same domain are accepted
when coming from the same IP address.

  Description : Presentation tool that generates slideshows using a simple 
markup language

Pointless is a presentation tool primarily targeted at the un*x world.
Presentations are made using a simple markup-language (best described
as a mix between TeX and Pod, and affectionately known as The Pointless
Language).  The resulting slideshow is rendered using FreeType and OpenGL
for optimal visual quality.  Hardware accelerated OpenGL is highly
recommended but not required in order to run pointless. 

The pointless tool is designed in an extensible way, allowing the user
to make simple presentations with minimal effort, yet providing for
more complicated presentations through the inclusion (or, if necessary,
coding) of extension modules.

  Description : Distributed Object Technology system written in Python

Pyro is an acronym for PYthon Remote Objects.  It is a basic Distributed
Object Technology system written entirely in Python, and for use in Python
only.  With this, it closely resembles Java's Remote Method Invocation
(RMI).  It is less similar to CORBA - which is a system- and language
independent Distributed Object Technology and has much more to offer than
Pyro or RMI. But Pyro is small, simple and free (MIT software license)!

Bug#177767: RFP: zope-btreefolder2 -- BTreeFolder2, an enhanced BTree folder for Zope

2003-01-21 Thread Klaus Alexander Seistrup

  Description : BTreeFolder2, an enhanced BTree folder for Zope

BTreeFolder2 is a Zope product that acts like a Zope folder but can
store many more items.

When you fill a Zope folder with too many items, both Zope and your
browser get overwhelmed.  Zope has to load and store a large folder
object, and the browser has to render large HTML tables repeatedly.
Zope can store a lot of objects, but it has trouble storing a lot of
objects in a single standard folder.

Zope Corporation once had an extensive discussion on the subject.  It
was decided that we would expand standard folders to handle large
numbers of objects gracefully.  Unfortunately, Zope folders are used
and extended in so many ways today that it would be difficult to
modify standard folders in a way that would be compatible with all
Zope products.

So the BTreeFolder product was born.  It stored all subobjects in a
ZODB BTree, a structure designed to allow many items without loading
them all into memory.  It also rendered the contents of the folder as
a simple select list rather than a table.  Most browsers have no
trouble rendering large select lists.

But there was still one issue remaining.  BTreeFolders still stored
the ID of all subobjects in a single database record.  If you put tens
of thousands of items in a single BTreeFolder, you would still be
loading and storing a multi-megabyte folder object.  Zope can do this,
but not quickly, and not without bloating the database.

BTreeFolder2 solves this issue.  It stores not only the subobjects but
also the IDs of the subobjects in a BTree.  It also batches the list
of items in the UI, showing only 1000 items at a time.  So if you
write your application carefully, you can use a BTreeFolder2 to store
as many items as will fit in physical storage.

There are products that depend on the internal structure of the
original BTreeFolder, however.  So rather than risk breaking those
products, the product has been renamed.  You can have both products
installed at the same time.  If you're developing new applications,
you should use BTreeFolder2.

Bug#177605: RFP: zope-silva -- Zope based publication management system

  Description : Zope publication system for creating publications for the 
web, paper and other media

Silva is a completely browser based publication system for creating
publications for the web, paper, and other media.  Content is stored
in a clean and future-proof format, independent of layout and
presentation, suitable for use in multiple contexts.  Silva allows
novice users to enter new documents as well as edit existing documents
using a simple web interface.

Behind the scenes, Silva stores content in XML (Extensible Markup
Language). This leads to several important advantages:

  ·  The same content can be used in different media, such as the
 web, paper, or word processor content.  Web publication of
 content is native to Silva as it is based on Zope, but Silva
 also has export filters to PDF and MS Word, and more can be
 built when the demand arises.

  ·  The content is future proofed and not out of date as soon as
 you want to use a new system or present it in a different way.

  ·  The structuring of the content facilitates more sophisticated
 searching and indexing.

Silva supports (but does not require) a separation between authors who
can create new content and editors who can approve whether content
actually gets published. It also allows delegation of editing or
authoring responsibilities of a section of the publication to others.
Thus, users can be empowered (avoiding a single-person bottleneck),
without the loss of editorial control.

To assist in the publication process, Silva implements workflow where
multiple versions of the same document are kept around at the same time.
One version of a particular document may be published while another
version can be edited at the same time.

Silva is extensible with new document types and other types of content
objects.

Bug#145880: RFP: netcat6 -- TCP/IP swiss army knife with IPv6 support

  Description : TCP/IP swiss army knife with IPv6 support

From the nc6 manpage:

  »netcat6  is  a  simple unix utility which reads and writes
   data across network connections, using TCP or  UDP  proto­
   col.  It is designed to be a reliable back-end tool that
   can be used directly or easily driven  by  other  programs
   and  scripts.  At the same time, it is a feature-rich net­
   work debugging and exploration tool, since it  can  create
   almost  any kind of connection you would need and has sev­
   eral interesting  built-in  capabilities.   netcat6  ,  or
   nc6  as  the  actual  program is named, should have been
   supplied long ago as another  one  of  those  cryptic  but
   standard Unix tools.

   In  the simplest usage, nc6 host port creates a TCP con­
   nection to the given port on the given target host.   Your
   standard input is then sent to the host, and anything that
   comes back across the connection is sent to your  standard
   output.   This  continues  indefinitely, until the network
   side  of  the  connection  shuts  down.   Note  that  this
   behaviour  is different from most other applications which
   shut everything down and exit after an end-of-file on  the
   standard input.

   netcat6  can  also  function as a server, by listening for
   inbound connections on arbitrary ports and then doing  the
   same reading and writing.  With minor limitations, netcat6
   doesn't really care if it runs  in  client  or  server
   mode  --  it still shovels data back and forth until there
   isn't any more left.  In this manual page, these two work­
   ing  modes  are  referred  as  connect  mode and listen
   mode, respectively.«
