dbconfig-common presents a policy and implementation for managing various databases used by applications included in debian packages.

dbconfig-common can: * support mysql and postgresql based applications * create databases and database users * access local or remote databases * upgrade/modify databases when upstream changes database structure * remove databases and database users * generate config files in many formats with the database info * import configs from packages previously managing databases on their own * prompt users with a set of normalized, pre-translated questions * handle failures gracefully, with an option to retry. * do all the hard work automatically * work for package maintainers with little effort on their part * work for local admins with little effort on their part * comply with an agreed upon set of standards for behaviour * do absolutely nothing if it is the whim of the local admin * perform all operations from within the standard flow of debian package maintenance (no additional skill is required of the local admin)

This is a meta package which depends upon several other Pike packages that together make up the recommended Pike installation. If you want to install every packaged component of the Pike distribution, please install the pike7.6-meta package.

If you want to remove several components this package depends upon, you can purge this package without worrying about the functionality loss in Pike and then remove the packages you don't need on your system.

Pike is an interpreted, object-oriented, dynamic programming language with a syntax similar to C. It includes many powerful data types and a module system that, for instance, provides image manipulation together, with support for graphics formats like SVG, JPG, PNG, GIF, XCF and many others, database connectivity, advanced cryptography, XML/HTML parsers and others.

sTeam provides a technical platform which allows groups of students, lecturers and any other groups to construct and arrange their individual and cooperative learning and working space.

sTeam consists of an object-oriented server connected to a database and Web, Java and other (ftp, irc, ...) clients. The server is event-driven and manages all user objects as well as the communication between the connected clients.

Different from most other cooperation tools is the novel possibility of self-organisation and self-administration by the members within the virtual environment.

In the core, the system provides the following self-administrating functions:

* creation of rooms * granting of admission or access authorisations * administration and processing of objects or references to objects and documents located on other servers * carrying objects and passing them on to other users * use of rooms as cooperative media (e.g. Shared Whiteboard)
