The SDPA (SemiDefinite Programming Algorithm) is a software package for
solving semidefinite program (SDP). Extremely efficient, almost fastest
around the world!
This category, to be described as "of interest to disabled
users" is intended to make it simpler for users to find
software which will let them overcome a handicap. For
example, blind users may want to combine OCR and text-to-speech
software so the computer can read books to them; users with
diminished eyesight can use large fonts and "magnifiers";
paralyzed users may use speech recognition to compose text
or give commands.

Anacron is a periodic command scheduler. It executes
commands at intervals specified in days. Unlike cron, it
does not assume that the system is running continuously.
It can therefore be used to control the execution of daily,
weekly and monthly jobs (or anything with a period of n
days), on systems that don't run 24 hours a day.
Anacron is not an attempt to make cron redundant.

patch involved patching the core auto* routines in KDE to accept the
PTHREAD_* variables in the environment, with fallbacks. We decided the
easiest way to implement this in ports was to generate configure instead
of risking incorrect generation at port configure time.
Said patch has already been committed to HEAD in KDE and as such will be
removed with the 3.2 upgrade once it is released.
Ports using Makefile.kde that shouldn't be using them (i.e. non-KDE
modules) have this support commented out due to lack of patch.

* A potentially serious bug is fixed in the 'smtp-check-sender'

* 'Jane Doe' is no longer used if a real fullname value can't
be determined for the user. Instead, an empty string is used,
which will result in just the e-mail address being used in the
"From:" field when TMDA sends auto-responses.
