by CTAN Announcements 17 Apr '12

17 Apr '12

last week, the daemon told me: > The following information was provided by the package's contributor. > > Name of contribution: fundus > Author's name: Gerd Neugebauer > Author's email: gene(a)gerd-neugebauer.de > Package version: 2012-04-17 > Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/fundus/ > Summary description: Reorganization of the former fundus bundle > License type: lppl (but see below) > Announcement text given by the package's contributor: > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > I have reorganized the files in fundus and put the packages into > sub-directories. The documentation has been updated. PDF files are > contained for (nearly) all packages. The license has been clearly > specified as LPPL. The content of the zip archive replaces the > content of the existing fundus directory thanks for the upload; i have finally completed installing and cataloguing the new material. (note that not everything in the bundle is available under lppl; the _startrek_ part of the bundle contains fonts, for which no licence information is available.) > Users may view the package catalogue entry at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/fundus.html > or they may browse the package directory at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/fundus/ the fundus bundle is represented in more detail in catalogue entries: > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/fundus-calligra.html > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/fundus-cyr.html > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/fundus-la.html > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/fundus-outline.html > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/fundus-pvscript.html > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/fundus-startrek.html > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/fundus-suetterl.html > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/fundus-twcal.html > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/fundus-va.html most of these entries are already up-to-date on the archive; the remaining ones will follow. as usual, all information will be up to date after tonight's processing run.
