Stéphane Galland submitted an update to the
UPmethodology
package.
Version: 20131214
License type: lgpl
Summary description: The bundle allows the user to create
Unified Process methodology (UP or RUP) based documents.
The style provides document versioning, document history,
document authors, document validators, specification description,
task management, and several helping macros.
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
tex-upmethodology can be used with latex. In the previous
versions, only pdflatex could be used.
This release adds the macros chapterfull and sectionfull
which allow the user to control the labels associated with a
chapter and a section (in the core text, in the toc, and in the
headers), and adds the macro
ewpageintoc to help to avoid
orphan lines in the toc.
The environment 'description' is redefined for enabling the
specification of the separating text between the description's
items and the description's texts.
Removes any reference to the package 'fancyhdr'.
The macro backcovermessage is added to insert a message at
the bottom of the inner page of the back cover.
Minor bugs are fixed in the name's formatting functions.
