Pixie is a RenderMan like photorealistic renderer. It is being
developed in the hope that it will be useful for graphics
research and for people who can not afford a commercial
renderer.
Some of supported features:
* All RenderMan 3.4 primitives
* Programmable shading (RenderMan Shading Language)
* High quality texture/shadow/environment mapping
* High dynamic range input/output
* Raytracing
* Motion blur
* Depth of field
* Reyes style rendering (very fast)
* Occlusion culling
* Area light sources
* Network parallel rendering
* DSO shaders
* Global illumination
* Photon mapping

GLFW is a free, open source, portable framework for OpenGL
application development. In short, it is a library that
constitutes a powerful API for handling operating system
specific tasks, such as opening an OpenGL window, reading
keyboard and mouse input, creating threads, and much more.

The library mostly provides functions to allow you to use
OpenGL alongside Allegro -- you use OpenGL for your rendering
to the screen, and Allegro for miscellaneous tasks like
gathering input, doing timers, getting cross-platform
portability, loading data, playing samples and drawing your
textures. So this library fills the same hole that things like
GLUT do.

FTGL is a free open source library to enable developers to use
arbitrary fonts in their OpenGL applications. Unlike other
OpenGL font libraries FTGL uses standard font file formats so
doesn't need a preprocessing step to convert the high quality
font data into a lesser quality, proprietary format. FTGL uses
the Freetype (www.freetype.org) font library to open and
'decode' the fonts. It then takes that output and stores it in
a format most efficient for OpenGL rendering.

GEOS (Geometry Engine - Open Source) is a C++ port of the
Java Topology Suite (JTS). As such, it aims to contain the
complete functionality of JTS in C++. This includes all the
OpenGIS "Simple Features for SQL" spatial predicate functions
and spatial operators, as well as specific JTS topology
functions such as IsValid().
More precisely, GEOS is a library containing functions which
implement OpenGIS specifications concerning operations on
geometric objects. Despite its categorization in the graphics
subdirectory, it is more suitable in a "gis" category for
Geographical Information Systems software. I would like to
suggest the ports team to create such category because of
the so many free software available on the internet. Please,
look at www.freegis.org. I am working on porting several
of them to make FreeBSD ready-for-GIS. Feel free to contact
me for more information.

The goal of the OpenGL Extension Wrangler Library (GLEW) is to
assist C/C++ OpenGL developers with two tedious tasks:
initializing and using extensions and writing portable
applications. GLEW provides an efficient run-time mechanism to
determine whether a certain extension is supported by the
driver or not. OpenGL core and extension functionality is
exposed via a single header file.

KimDaba focuses on three key points:
o It must be easy to describe a number of images at a time.
o It must be easy to search for images.
o It must be easy to browse and view the images.

GNU Ocrad is an OCR (Optical Character Recognition) program implemented
as a filter and based on a feature extraction method. It reads a bitmap
image in pbm format and outputs text in ISO-8859-1 (Latin-1) charset.
Also includes a layout analyser able to separate the columns or blocks
of text normally found on printed pages.
It can be used as a stand-alone console application, or as a backend to
other programs.

XFree86-4-Server. I decided the history from XFree86-4-Server wasn't
significant enough, and will hopefully be obsolete soon when Mesa starts
providing the DRI drivers.
This is a new port of pho. Pho is a lightweight program for
viewing large numbers of images quickly, rotating or deleting
some, and making notes about what to do with each image --
for instance, for going through hundreds of images after
uploading them from a digital camera.
It is similar to xv but with some additional functionality
and without some of its annoyances.
