<p>The Evergreen Project develops an open source ILS (integrated library
system) used by hundreds of libraries across the world. The software, also
called Evergreen, is used by libraries to provide their public catalog
interface as well as to manage back-of-house operations such as
circulation (checkouts and checkins), acquisition and cataloging of
library materials, and sharing resources among groups of libraries and
consortia on the same Evergreen system. Evergreen is designed to be
scalable and supports library operations ranging from a small high school
to large state-wide consortia. Evergreen is released under
the <a href="http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html">GPLv2</a>-or-later.</p>
<h2><a href="http://www.foresightlinux.org/">Foresight Linux</a></h2>
<p>Foresight is a desktop operating system featuring an intuitive user
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 “green” threads with a similar
interface as the standard “threading” and
“multiprocessing” 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>GPL Compliance Project for Linux Developers</h2>
<p>The GPL Compliance Project for Linux Developers is comprised of
copyright holders in the kernel, Linux, who have contributed to Linux
under its license, the GPLv2. These copyright holders have formally asked
Conservancy to engage in compliance efforts for their copyrights in the
Linux kernel.</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.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 and
Tieman.</p>
