interface and a showcase of the latest desktop software, giving users
 
convenient and enjoyable access to their music, photos, videos,
 
documents, and Internet resources.</p>
 

	
 
<p>As a Linux distribution, Foresight sets itself apart by eliminating
 
the need for the user to be familiar with Linux.</p>
 

	
 
<h2><a href="http://www.gevent.org/">Gevent</a></h2>
 

	
 
<p>Gevent is a fast, coroutine-based networking library for Python.
 
Gevent is used in network applications, including servers that scale
 
up to tens thousands of connections but without the complexity usually
 
associated with event-driven architecture.</p>
 

	
 
<p>Gevent provides light-weight &ldquo;green&rdquo; threads with a similar
 
interface as the standard &ldquo;threading&rdquo; and
 
&ldquo;multiprocessing&rdquo; packages.  The library includes a DNS
 
resolver, a WSGI server, a monkey patching utility to make 3rd party
 
protocol implementations cooperative and support for SSL sockets.</p>
 

	
 
<h2><a href="http://www.git-scm.org/">Git</a></h2>
 

	
 
<p>Git is a free and open source distributed version control system
 
  designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with
 
  speed and efficiency.</p>
 

	
 
<p>Every Git clone is a full-fledged repository with complete history and
 
  full revision tracking capabilities, not dependent on network access
 
  or a central server. Branching and merging are fast and easy to do.</p>
 

	
 
<p>Git is used for version control of files, much like tools such as
 
  Mercurial, Bazaar, Subversion, CVS, Perforce, and Visual SourceSafe.</p>
 

	
 
<h2><a href="http://www.inkscape.org/">Inkscape</a></h2>
 

	
 
<p>Inkscape is an Open Source vector graphics editor, with capabilities
 
similar to Illustrator, Freehand, CorelDraw, or Xara X using the
 
open-standard Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) file format. Inkscape's
 
main goal is to create a powerful and convenient drawing tool fully
 
compliant with XML, SVG, and CSS standards.</p>
 

	
 
<p>In contrast to raster (bitmap) graphics editors such as Photoshop or
 
Gimp, Inkscape stores its graphics in a vector format. Vector graphics
 
is a resolution-independent description of the actual shapes and
 
objects that you see in the image. This description is then used to
 
determine how to plot each line and curve at any resolution or zoom
 
level.</p>
 

	
 
<h2><a href="http://www.jquery.com">jQuery</a></h2>
 

	
 
<p>jQuery is a fast and concise JavaScript Library that simplifies HTML
 
     document traversing, event handling, animating, and Ajax interactions
 
     for rapid web development. The jQuery Project works to maintain the
 
     jQuery JavaScript library and nurture the community surrounding it.
 
     </p>
 

	
 
<h2><a href="http://www.k-3d.org">K-3D</a></h2>
 

	
 
<p>K-3D is the free-as-in-freedom 3D modeling, animation, and rendering
 
system for GNU/Linux, MacOSX, and Windows operating systems. K-3D is based
 
on a powerful Visualization Pipeline that enables procedural modeling and
 
a robust plugin architecture, and is designed to scale to the needs of
 
professional artists.</p>
 

	
 
<h2><a href="http://kohanaframework.org">Kohana</a></h2>
 

	
 
<p>Kohana is an elegant HMVC PHP5 framework that provides a rich set of
 
components for building web applications.  It requires very little
 
configuration, fully supports UTF-8 and I18N, and provides many of the
 
tools that a developer needs within a highly flexible system. The
 
integrated class auto-loading, cascading filesystem, highly consistent
 
API, and easy integration with vendor libraries make it viable for any
 
project, large or small.</p>
 

	
 
<h2><a href="http://libbraille.org/">Libbraille</a></h2>
 

	
 
<p>Libbraille is a computer shared library which makes it possible to
 
easily develop software for Braille displays. It provides a simple API
 
to write text on the display, directly draw dots, or get the value of
 
keys pressed on the Braille keyboard. Libbraille supports a wide range
 
of Braille displays with a serial or USB connection and can
 
auto-detect most of them. Libbraille supports the terminals of the
 
following manufacturers: Alva, Baum, Blazie Engineering, EuroBraille,
 
HandyTech, Hermes, ONCE, Papenmeier, Pulse Data, TechniBraille amd
 
Tieman.</p>
 

	
 
<h2><a href="www.mifos.org">Mifos</a></h2>
 

	
 
<p>Mifos is an award-winning Open Source software platform for microfinance,
 
leveraging a modern stack of Open Source technology frameworks to provide
 
microfinance institutions with the scalability and flexibility needed to
 
grow. In 2009, Mifos was awarded with the Duke's Choice Award for Best
 
Java Technology for the Open Source Community.</p>
 

	
 
<h2><a href="http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/">Mercurial</a></h2>
 

	
 
<p>Mercurial is a fast, lightweight Source Control Management system
 
which can track revisions to software during development.  Since its
 
conception in April 2005, Mercurial has been adopted by many projects
 
for revision control, including Xen, One Laptop Per Child, and the
 
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA).  Mercurial runs on Unix-like systems, Mac
 
OS X, and Windows computers, and it is licensed under the GNU General
 
Public License.</p>
