aewm is a minimalist window manager for X11. It has no nifty features, but is light on resources and extremely simple in appearance. It should eventually make a good reference implementation of the ICCCM. A few separate programs are included to handle running programs, switching between windows, etc.
AutoRPM is a program that can do any combination of the following: mirror RPMs from an FTP site, keep installed RPMs consistent with an FTP site or local directory and keep installed RPMs in a cluster or network of systems consistent. It is highly flexible and contains a fully command-line driven interactive install mode (for installing RPMs from the queue or for installing RPMs from your system interactively). It also handles recursive dependencies, multiple versions of the same RPM, the same RPM with multiple architectures, and more. It does some of the same tasks as up2date and AutoUpdate.
cstream is a general-purpose stream-handling tool like UNIX dd, usually used in command line-constructed pipes. Features include sane command line switch syntax, exact throughput limiting on the incoming side, precise throughput reporting, SIGUSR1 causes a throughput report before end-of-file, built-in support to write its PID to a file, built-in support for fifos, IPv6 support, and built-in data creation and sink.
Festival is a general multi-lingual speech synthesis system developed at CSTR. It offers a full text to speech system with various APIs, as well an environment for development and research of speech synthesis techniques. It is written in C++ with a Scheme-based command interpreter for general control.
The festvox project, based at Carnegie Mellon University, distributes documentation, scripts, and examples that should be sufficient for an interested person to build her own synthetic voices in currently supported languages or new languages in the University of Edinburgh's Festival Speech Synthesis System. The quality of the result depends much on the time and skill of the builder. For English, it may be possible to build a new voice in a couple of days' work; a new language may take months or years to build.
