<h2><a href="http://www.busybox.net">BusyBox</a></h2>

<p>BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a
single small executable. It provides replacements for most of the
utilities you usually find in GNU fileutils, shellutils, etc. The
utilities in BusyBox generally have fewer options than their
full-featured GNU cousins; however, the options that are included
provide the expected functionality and behave very much like their GNU
counterparts. BusyBox provides a fairly complete environment for any
small or embedded system.</p>

<p>BusyBox has been written with size-optimization and limited
resources in mind. It is also extremely modular so you can easily
include or exclude commands (or features) at compile time. This makes
it easy to customize your embedded systems. To create a working
system, just add some device nodes in /dev, a few configuration files
in /etc, and a Linux kernel.</p>


<h2><a href="http://darcs.net/">Darcs</a></h2>

<p>Darcs is a distributed revision control system written in Haskell. In
Darcs, every copy of your source code is a full repository, which allows for
full operation in a disconnected environment, and also allows anyone with
read access to a Darcs repository to easily create their own branch and
modify it with the full power of Darcs' revision control. Darcs is based on
an underlying theory of patches, which allows for safe reordering and
merging of patches even in complex scenarios. For all its power, Darcs
remains a very easy to use tool for every day use because it follows the
principle of keeping simple things simple.  Darcs is free software
licensed under the GNU GPL.</p>


<h2><a href="http://www.foresightlinux.org/">Foresight Linux</a></h2>

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>

clients.  Samba is software that can be run on a platform other than
Microsoft Windows. For example, Samba runs on Unix, GNU/Linux, IBM
System 390, Solaris, Mac OS X, and OpenVMS, among others. It is
standard on virtually all distributions of GNU/Linux and is commonly
included as a basic system service on other UNIX-based systems as
well. Samba uses the TCP/IP protocol that is installed on the host
server.</p>

<p>One of the key goals of the project is to remove barriers to
interoperability. Samba is a software package that gives network
administrators flexibility and freedom in setup, configuration, choice
of systems, and equipment. Samba is released under the GPL.</p>
