Stephan Hennig submitted an update to the
spelling
package.
Summary description: support for spell-checking of LuaTeX documents
License type: lppl
Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package supports spell-checking of TeX documents
compiled with the LuaTeX engine. It can give visual
feedback in PDF output similar to WYSIWYG word
processors. The package relies on an external
spell-checker application that can check a plain text
file and output a list of bad spellings. The package
should work with most spell-checkers, even dumb,
TeX-unaware ones.
v0.41 (2013-05-25)
Fixes:
- Fixed compatibility issue with LuaTeX 0.70.2 that
caused text output file written to be emtpy.

xint
package.
Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers
License type: lppl
Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Release 1.07a (2013/05/26) brings important additions:
1. xintexpr...
elax is an expandable parser of algebraic
expressions involving the basic operations +,-,*,/, and ^ as infix
operators, as well as ! for the factorial. It expands everything
along the way and recognizes integers, decimal numbers, numbers in
scientific notations, and arbitrary levels of parenthesizing.
2. xintfloatexpr...
elax is the same thing, the operations being
excuted with a precision D, whose default is 16 digits, and may be
set arbitrarily (theoretical maximum 32768).
3. the other package macros now accept the scientific notation on
input and xintFloat outputs in floating point format with a given
precision D either specified as an optional argument or globally set.
The bundle now comprises the core constituents xint, xintfrac, and
the latest xintexpr which loads the two previous ones, and auxiliary
packages xintgcd, xintseries and xintcfrac.
The macros are usable with any flavor of TeX with the e-TeX
extensions. Users of LaTeX will do usepackage{xintexpr}, others
input xintexpr.sty
