package.
Summary description: Prepare a package for upload to CTAN
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ctanify is intended for developers of LaTeX packages who
want to distribute their packages via the Comprehensive TeX
Archive Network (CTAN). Given a list of filenames, ctanify
creates a tarball (a .tar.gz file) with the files laid out
in CTAN's preferred structure. The tarball additionally
contains a ZIP (.zip) file with copies of all files laid out
in the standard TeX Directory Structure (TDS), which
facilitates inclusion of the package in the TeX Live
distribution of TeX.
Version 1.3 additionally knows how to place scripts and Unix
man pages within a TDS hierarchy.

wheretotrim
package.
Summary description: Help reduce page count by suggesting where to trim text
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
wheretotrim is a Perl script and auxiliary LaTeX package
that helps LaTeX users reduce their document's page count.
It is intended to be used with documents that exceed a
publisher's specified page-length limitation by a small
amount (much less than a full column or page). wheretotrim
reports the page and column on which the least amount of
text needs to be trimmed to reduce the page count. It works
by repeatedly rebuilding the given document, analyzing the
benefit of trimming from each column or page one line of
text, then two, then three, and so forth until the
document's page count decreases.
wheretotrim has been tested only on Linux. It might work on
OS X. It probably won't work on Windows.
