The following request would be helpful for those with open source 3D printers. Repetier-Host is a common software used to control these printers, but it assumes that it will be installed on a local machine rather than a portable drive. Having this software portable will help students who take their printers between home and school. This would also help people with 3D printers take the printer to a friend's house and show the technology without taking the computer along or messing up their friend's registry.

Open Text Summarizer

Automatic text summarization is the technique, where a computer program summarizes a document. A text is put into the computer and a highlighted (summarized) text is returned. The Open Text Summarizer is an open source tool for summarizing texts. The program reads a text and decides which sentences are important and which are not.
