Name : nordugrid-arc
Product : Fedora EPEL 5
Version : 1.0.1
Release : 3.el5
URL : http://www.nordugrid.org/
Summary : Advanced Resource Connector Grid Middleware
Description :
NorduGrid is a collaboration aiming at development, maintenance and
support of the free Grid middleware, known as the Advanced Resource
Connector (ARC).
The Advanced Resource Connector (ARC) brings computing resources
together across institutional boundaries. This concept is commonly
referred to as a "computational grid". Historically, grids address the
organization of distributed storage of data and parallel computation,
but could be expanded to arbitrary services.
Just like the web, ARC has its roots in the IT infrastructure that was
erected to analyze the experiments for high energy physics at CERN.
The first release, ARC-0.x, was dependent on Globus, the current
release keeps that compatibility but can also be used independently.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
This update moves large files away from /var/run in order not to fill the /run partition-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This update can be installed with the "yum" update programs. Use
su -c 'yum update nordugrid-arc' at the command line.

Name : irda-utils
Product : Fedora EPEL 6
Version : 0.9.18
Release : 11.el6
URL : http://irda.sourceforge.net
Summary : Utilities for infrared communication between devices
Description :
IrDA(TM) (Infrared Data Association) is an industry standard for
wireless, infrared communication between devices. IrDA speeds range
from 9600 bps to 4 Mbps, and IrDA can be used by many modern devices
including laptops, LAN adapters, PDAs, printers, and mobile phones.
The Linux-IrDA project is a GPL'd implementation, written from
scratch, of the IrDA protocols. Supported IrDA protocols include
IrLAP, IrLMP, IrIAP, IrTTP, IrLPT, IrLAN, IrCOMM and IrOBEX.
The irda-utils package contains a collection of programs that enable
the use of IrDA protocols. Most IrDA features are implemented in the
kernel, so IrDA support must be enabled in the kernel before any IrDA
tools or programs can be used. Some configuration outside the kernel
is required, however, and some IrDA features, like IrOBEX, are
actually implemented outside the kernel.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
New package
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This update can be installed with the "yum" update programs. Use
su -c 'yum update irda-utils' at the command line.

Name : mongoose
Product : Fedora EPEL 5
Version : 2.8
Release : 7.el5
URL : http://code.google.com/p/mongoose
Summary : An easy-to-use self-sufficient web server
Description :
Mongoose web server executable is self-sufficient, it does not depend on
anything to start serving requests. If it is copied to any directory and
executed, it starts to serve that directory on port 8080 (so to access files,
go to http://localhost:8080). If some additional configuration is required -
for example, different listening port or IP-based access control, then a
'mongoose.conf' file with respective options can be created in the same
directory where executable lives. This makes Mongoose perfect for all sorts
of demos, quick tests, file sharing, and Web programming.

Summary : Handle the administration of MySQL over the World Wide Web
Description :
phpMyAdmin is a tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of
MySQL over the World Wide Web. Most frequently used operations are supported
by the user interface (managing databases, tables, fields, relations, indexes,
users, permissions), while you still have the ability to directly execute any
SQL statement.
Features include an intuitive web interface, support for most MySQL features
(browse and drop databases, tables, views, fields and indexes, create, copy,
drop, rename and alter databases, tables, fields and indexes, maintenance
server, databases and tables, with proposals on server configuration, execute,
edit and bookmark any SQL-statement, even batch-queries, manage MySQL users
and privileges, manage stored procedures and triggers), import data from CSV
and SQL, export data to various formats: CSV, SQL, XML, PDF, OpenDocument Text
and Spreadsheet, Word, Excel, LATEX and others, administering multiple servers,
creating PDF graphics of your database layout, creating complex queries using
Query-by-example (QBE), searching globally in a database or a subset of it,
transforming stored data into any format using a set of predefined functions,
like displaying BLOB-data as image or download-link and much more...

Fedora EPEL 5 Update: python-mtTkinter-0.4-3.el5
by updates@fedoraproject.org
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fedora EPEL Update Notification
FEDORA-EPEL-2011-4307
2011-08-31 22:25:03
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : python-mtTkinter
Product : Fedora EPEL 5
Version : 0.4
Release : 3.el5
URL : http://tkinter.unpythonic.net/wiki/mtTkinter
Summary : A thread-safe version of Tkinter
Description :
Although Tkinter is technically thread-safe
(assuming Tk is built with --enable-threads),
practically speaking there are still problems when used in multithreaded
Python applications. The problems stem from the fact that the _tkinter
module attempts to gain control of the main thread via a polling technique
when processing calls from other threads. If it succeeds, all is well.
If it fails (i.e., after a timeout), the application receives an exception
with the message: "RuntimeError: main thread is not in main loop".
There is no way to tell when this might happen, so calling Tk routines
from multiple threads seems to be problematic at best.
The mtTkinter module solves this problem by modifying some Tkinter
module definitions (in memory). The modified code intercepts
out-of-thread Tkinter calls and marshals them through a queue which
is read by an 'after' event running periodically in the main loop.
This is similar to the technique used in many other platforms
(e.g., .NET's InvokeRequired/Invoke mechanism).
The technique used in mtTkinter is exception-safe as well,
marshaling exceptions through a response queue back to the caller's thread.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Initial release.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This update can be installed with the "yum" update programs. Use
su -c 'yum update python-mtTkinter' at the command line.
