X Resource Graph (XRG) is a system monitor that shows graphs for CPU usage, memory usage, battery status, machine temperature, network usage, disk usage, current weather, and stock market data. It is designed to use as little overhead possible while showing a lot of information about the resource usage in a nice interface.

Adium X is a fast and lightweight, yet highly customizable, multiple protocol instant messaging application for Mac OS X. It uses libgaim, and is based on a plugin architecture. It features partial address book integration and a compact contact list.

Packet Peeper is a network protocol analyzer (or
"packet sniffer"). Its features include TCP stream
reassembly, privilege separation, simultaneous
capture sessions, filters, Python plugins, and
support for pcap capture files.

PdfMasher is a tool to convert PDF files containing text into a ready-for-ebook set of HTML files. Most ebook readers support PDF files natively, but it's often a real pain to read those documents because you can't control the font size of the document and have to resort to the zooming feature instead. Another drawback of PDFs on ebook readers is that annotations are not supported. Unlike other tools that convert PDFs to ebooks, PdfMasher does not try to guess the role of each piece of text in the PDF, and instead asks the user about the role of each piece of text, and does so in an efficient manner.

Addresses is a GNUstep address book that consists
of a full-featured address book manager
application, a source-code compatible replacement
for Apple's AddressBook.framework (for accessing
and manipulating address data programmatically), a
framework of view/editor classes that make it easy
to use Addresses from your own programs, and a
number of tools. It is easy to use by both users
and programmers and can store almost all
imaginable data, including multiple phone numbers,
emails, and addresses, photos,
AIM/Jabber/ICQ/Yahoo IM details, and notes. It
supports drag-and-drop and integrates well with
GNUMail.

ImageOptim decreases the file size of PNG, JPEG, and GIF images, even those "Saved for Web". It combines OptiPNG, PNGCrush, AdvanceComp, PNGOUT, Jpegoptim + Jpegtran, and Gifsicle for the best possible optimization.

GNUMail.app is a clone of NeXT's excellent Mail.app application. It uses the GNUstep development framework, which is based on the OpenStep specification provided by NeXT.

MacTerm (formerly MacTelnet) is a complete terminal emulator for Mac OS X, for use with local or remote applications. It is also available for Classic Mac OS as a remote-only shell. It supports VT100, VT102, VT220, and parts of XTerm and ANSI, UTF-8 and other character sets, very accurate rendering of CP437 for use in BBS games, regular or tabbed windows, a full screen mode that works on up to two displays, dynamic search, powerful macros for entering text, running commands, and opening URLs, extensive preferences, including a flexible coloring and formatting system, Workspaces that spawn commands and auto-arrange windows, Growl notifications, text capture, floating keypads for control keys, and much more.

Unity is a user-friendly development environment for designing and programming 3D games and a 3D game engine. Scripting is done using JavaScript, C#, or Boo via an embedded Mono run time. The resulting games can be deployed as stand-alone Mac OS X or Windows applications, Web plug-ins, or as Dashboard widgets. Unity is the tool that was used by Unity Technologies to create their game Gooball, which is available from Ambrosia Software.

NetGrowler displays pop-up notifications of
networks events (joining new wireless networks,
IP address changes, etc.) through Growl.

Fairmount mounts the contents of a video DVD on a Mac OS X machine as though it were normal filesystem. It is so named because it enables fair use of the content. It does not itself supply DVD reading code, but instead requires that a DVD library from videolan.org be installed separately. Fairmount was originally developed by Metakine and released under the GPL, but they have ceased to develop or distribute it. This version is a fork of their original code.

PixSteward downloads pictures and metadata from your Flickr accounts and archives them in a relational database on your computer, allowing offline searches and image exporting. With PixSteward, you can safely back up multiple Flickr photostreams with metadata to your Mac, perform sophisticated searches (even where there's no Internet connection), rapidly browse your picture archive and export original-sized JPEGs, PNGs, and GIFs (groups and one-by-one), export sets of pictures along with their metadata for use in other apps, and edit your Flickr tags, titles, and descriptions simultaneously on Flickr and within PixSteward.

ZEG, which stands for "Zero Effort Groupware", is a virtual appliance of SOGo intended to provide a complete out-of-the-box testing environment. SOGo is a collaboration suite (or groupware) with speed and scalability in mind. It offers calendaring, address book management, and a full-featured Webmail client along with resource sharing and permission handling. It also makes use of documented standards (CalDAV, CardDAV and GroupDAV, vCard, and vCalendar/iCalendar) and thereby enables the use of many clients and the reuse of any existing infrastructure. The appliance is prepared to be imported in VirtualBox but can also used in VMWare.
