Summary description: Name authority mechanism for consistency in body
text and index
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The 2.5 milestone update moves toward greater modularity in processing
names.
No default format is assigned to names. Those who used the previous
default still may get that behavior with the smallcaps option.
The front/main matter systems each have their own first- and
subsequent-use hooks. Complex interactions with names and their
contexts are possible. Longer examples in the manual are included also
in a separate examples file.
This opens possibilities for reference works, historical research, and
any situation where one must key information to names and create
complex interactions based on that.
