This repository contains different categories of software for the i386, amd64 and sparc architectures (the focus being on i386):
Currently, I'm in a transition phase. Some packages are already packaged for Lenny, others are still packaged for Etch. When a package is officially available only from Lenny, I'll try to keep the Etch version around. The packages might also work under testing/unstable, if not, try to build them from source. If this fails, please contact me.

The following packages are currently available:
digital audio workstation (graphical gtk2 interface)
Ardour is a multichannel hard disk recorder (HDR) and digital audio workstation (DAW). It can be used to control, record, edit and run and complex audio setups. . Ardour supports pro-audio interfaces through the ALSA project, which provides high quality, well designed device drivers and API's for audio I/O under Linux. Any interface supported by ALSA can be used with Ardour. This includes the all-digital 26 channel RME Hammerfall, the Midiman Delta 1010 and many others. . Ardour has support for 24 bit samples using floating point internally, non-linear editing with unlimited undo, a user-configurable mixer, MTC master/slave capabilities, MIDI hardware control surface compatibility. . It supports MIDI Machine Control, and so can be controlled from any MMC controller and many modern digital mixers. . Ardour contains a powerful multitrack audio editor/arranger that is completely non-destructive and capable of all standard non-linear editing operations (insert, replace, delete, move, trim, select, cut/copy/paste). The editor has unlimited undo/redo capabilites and can save independent "versions" of a track or an entire piece . Ardour's editor supports the community-developed LADSPA plugin standard. Arbitrary chains of plugins can be attached to any portion of a track. Every mixer strip can have any number of inputs and outputs, not just mono, stereo or 5.1. An N-way panner is included, with support for various panning models. Pre- and post-fader sends exist, each with their own gain and pan controls. Every mixer strip acts as its own bus, and thus the bus count in Ardour is unlimited. You can submix any number of strips into another strip. . Ardour's channel capacity is limited only by the number on your audio interface and the ability of your disk subsystem to stream the data back and forth. . JACK (the JACK Audio Connection Kit) is used for all audio I/O, permitting data to be exchanged in perfect samplesync with other applications and/or hardware audio interfaces. . Ardour is sample rate and size neutral - any hardware formats from 8 to 32 bits, and rates from 8kHz to 192kHz. Internal processing in 32/64 bit IEEE floating point format. . Further information can be found at <http://ardour.org/>.

light-weight distributed issue tracker
Ditz is a simple, light-weight distributed issue tracker designed to work with distributed version control systems like darcs and git. Ditz maintains an issue database directory on disk, with files written in a line-based and human- editable format. This directory is kept under version control alongside project code. Changes in issue state is handled by version control like code change: included as part of a commit, merged with changes from other developers, conflict-resolved in the standard manner, etc. . Ditz provides a simple, console-based interface for creating and updating the issue database files, and some rudimentary HTML generation capabilities for producing world-readable status pages. It offers no central public method of bug submission.
Ditz Commander, GUI Frontend for ditz
Ditz Commander is a GUI frontend for ditz, a distributed issue tracker.
powerful webcomic downloader / archiver
Dosage has a modular comic module infrastructure that allows new webcomics to be easily supported, but does not limit it to supporting webcomics with simple site layouts. Dosage can retrieve just the latest strip in a comic, catch-up to the last strip downloaded, or download a strip for a particular date/index (except if the webcomic's site layout makes this impossible). .
image blending tool
Enblend is a tool for compositing images. Given a set of images that overlap in some irregular way, Enblend overlays them in such a way that the seam between the images is invisible, or at least very difficult to see. It can, for example, be used to blend a panorama composed of several images. . It uses a Burt & Adelson multi-resolution spline. This technique tries to make the seams between the input images invisible. The basic idea is that image features should be blended across a transition zone proportional in size to the spatial frequency of the features. For example, objects like trees and windowpanes have rapid changes in color. By blending these features in a narrow zone, you will not be able to see the seam because the eye already expects to see color changes at the edge of these features. Clouds and sky are the opposite. These features have to be blended across a wide transition zone because any sudden change in color will be immediately noticeable. . Enblend does not align images for you. Use a tool like Hugin or PanoTools to do this. The TIFFs produced by these programs are exactly what Enblend is designed to work with.
image exposure blending tool
Enfuse blends differently exposed images of the same scene into a nice output image, without producing intermediate HDR images that are then tonemapped to a viewable image. This simplified process often works much better and quicker than the currently known tonemapping algorithms. . The exposure blending is done using the Mertens-Kautz-Van Reeth exposure fusion algorithm. The basic idea is that pixels in the input images are weighted according to qualities such as proper exposure, good contrast, and high saturation. These weights determine how much a given pixel will contribute to the final image. . Enfuse does not align images for you. Use a tool like Hugin or PanoTools to do this. The TIFFs produced by these programs are exactly what Enfuse is designed to work with.
NSF player for OSS (/dev/dsp)
Festalon is a portable, very accurate, NSF (NES Sound Format) player written by the author of FCE Ultra (fceu).
