Libart is a library for high-performance 2D graphics.
Libart supports a very powerful imaging model, basically the same as SVG
and the Java 2D API. It includes all PostScript imaging operations, and
adds antialiasing and alpha-transparency.
Libart is also highly tuned for incremental rendering. It contains data
structures and algorithms suited to rapid, precise computation of Region
of Interest, as well as a two-phase rendering pipeline optimized for
interactive display.

This is the popt command line option parsing library. While it is similiar
to getopt(3), it contains a number of enhancements, including:
1) popt is fully reentrant
2) popt can parse arbitrary argv[] style arrays while
getopt(2) makes this quite difficult
3) popt allows users to alias command line arguments
4) popt provides convience functions for parsing strings
into argv[] style arrays
- change ftp site to a non-australian site.
- add `recovery site' for old versions.
rsync 2.4.6 fixes a long-standing half-bug, where the writer would sit
in a tight loop if the outgoing connection was slow, chewing all cpu.
just because we have login_cap.h does not mean we actually have the
authentication part of login capabilities .... yet. fixes breakage on
-current systems.
6 Sep 2000 (when RSA Security Inc. placed its public key encryption
algorithm into the public domain). Remove configure patch that
added the no-longer-needed --with-rsaref option

These modules are supposed to be used with the Apache server together with
an embedded Perl interpreter like mod_perl. They provide support for basic
authentication and authorization as well as support for persistent
database connections via Perl's Database Independent Interface (DBI).
o AuthDBI.pm provides authentication and authorization:
- optional shared cache for passwords to minimize database load
- configurable cleanup-handler deletes outdated entries from the cache
o DBI.pm provides persistent database connections:
- connections can be established during server-startup
- configurable rollback to ensure data integrity
- configurable verification of the connections to avoid time-outs.

Tested on i386 (by Pavel), SPARC (by me). Needs testing on m68k-based
systems.

The Apache/Perl integration project brings together the full power of the
Perl programming language and the Apache HTTP server. This is achieved by
linking the Perl runtime library into the server and providing an object
oriented Perl interface to the server's C language API.
These pieces are seamlessly glued together by the `mod_perl' server
plugin, making it is possible to write Apache modules entirely in Perl.
In addition, the persistent interpreter embedded in the server avoids the
overhead of starting an external interpreter program and the additional
Perl start-up (compile) time.
