LibUtillery is a container for more or less unrelated utility libraries, providing functionality that is often required in both small and medium-sized software, which otherwise tends to be re-written over and over again.
The library provides a highly portable programmer's toolbox, either as-is or as a relatively easy to use code repository. It is designed to work on all kinds of modern and older flavors of Unix, as well as Microsoft Windows. Apart from requiring the "long long" integer type in one function, it is expected to be compatible with ISO C90.
Most of LibUtillery's sub-libraries could be considered a "class" that can be instantiated multiple times within a program most of the time.

GNUCITIZEN is a Cutting-edge Ethical Hacker Outfit. We hack things for a living. To hack does not necessarily mean to crack into something illegally. We don’t do that! Not the illegal part. We get paid to hack, which is a hack on its own. As you will learn by reading our blog, hacking is mostly about finding creative solutions to interesting problems. Sometimes these problems are related to breaking into protected computer networks, sometimes they are related to other things such as influencing a large number of people to believe in made up values. Hacking is all about creativity or finding creative solutions to interesting problems. This is exactly what GNUCITIZEN stands behind.

In short, camsource grabs images from a video4linux device and makes them available to various plugins for processing or handling. It features a modularized and multithreaded design to offer a large amount of flexibility. A server plugin runs in its own thread, which makes it possible to use the same grabbed frame for several purposes at the same time. There are also filter plugins, which can be daisychained to create useful and no-so-useful effects in images. The configuration happens through an xml config file, hopefully making configuring camsource an easy task.
