Summary description: Unicode mathematics support for XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
After an interminable wait, this release fixes a terribly embarrassing
incompatibility with recent versions of expl3. I'm very sorry for any
inconvenience. Other changes are listed below:
* Command names are now `protected`; this makes them safe to use in moving
arguments and so on
* Similarly to the change in v0.5c, the main math font is now loaded in
math family zero (equiv. to LaTeX's `operators` math font)
* `mathring` added
* Ensure that a math font has been selected in order to prevent problems
in minimal documents (this will be unnecessary when the OpenType LM math
font is released)
* Documentation for which was which of epsilon/varepsilon was backwards!
(thank to Rasmus Villemoes for pointing this out)
* Spurious `upUpsilon` removed (the one at U+03A5 is now the correct one)
* Typo when defining `dprime` fixed
(thanks to Ulrik Vieth for these last two)
* Fix the math class of `modtwosum`; it is now a large operator
(thanks to Michael Ummels)
* Move several LuaTeX-related patches to the `lualatex-math` package
* Fixed mathtool's `cramped` in XeLaTeX usage
