Frogr

Frogr is a small application for the GNOME desktop that allows users to manage their accounts in the Flickr image hosting website. It supports all the basic Flickr features, including uploading pictures, adding descriptions, setting tags and managing sets and groups pools. The latest stable version of Frogr (0.10) currently features a basic flickr uploader with the following features: Allow upload of pictures and videos to flickr, specifying details such as title, description, tags, visibility, content type, safety level and whether to "show up on global search results". Allow uploading pictures and videos from remote machines, through different protocols (SMB, SSH, FTP...). Allow loading/saving the work session from/to 'project' files. Allow setting specific licenses and geolocation information for pictures right from the desktop. Allow specifying sets and group pools for the elements to be added to after the upload process. Allow to create sets right from frogr, opposite to just adding elements to already existing ones. Command line interface and integration as MIME type handler for pictures. Import tags from picture's metainformation (if present) when loading. Support for handling multiple Flickr accounts. Support for specifying HTTP proxies manually. Integrated with GNOME Shell and the Mac OS X desktops.

Collaboration

FromThePage

FromThePage is a free software for manuscript transcription, allowing volunteers to transcribe document pages online. Transcriptions can then be marked up and annotated in a wiki-like enviroment, with the resultant text displayed on the public web. It includes a discussion environment, enabling collaboration on particularly difficult pages. FromThePage is currently in beta, permitting up to 100 pages per project, and is in the process of developing a paid version for larger projects requiring more server space, with price determined primarily by server and maintenance costs. Privacy features are also under development, and further features forthcoming based on feedback from users.

GAMS

GAMS/Cirilo is an application developed for content preservation and data curation in FEDORA-based repository systems. Content preservation and data curation include object creation and management, versioning, normalization and standards, and the choice of data formats. The client offers functionalities which are especially prone to be used as tools for mass operations on FEDORA objects, such as ingest or replacement processes. Cirilo uses a collection of predefined content models, which can be used without further adjustments for standard workflow scenarios like the management of collections of TEI objects. It encapsulates functions for the resolvement of place names or ontology concepts, thus semantically enriching resources in the digital archive. Various dissemination options can also be assigned with the client. Cirilo is a contribution to the DARIAH-EU task “Reference Software Packages. The source code of the client can be found at https://github.com/acdh/cirilo, the documentation is available at http://gams.uni-graz.at/doku. An „archive-in-a-box“-installation package (Client including a FEDORA 3.5 instance) for Debian-based Linux-distributions can be downloaded from http://gams.uni-graz.at/download/cirilo-installer-2.4.tar.gz
