Jürgen Spitzmüller submitted an update to the
covington
package.

License type: lppl1.3
Summary description: Linguistic support
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
* Version 1.1 (2016-07-06):
- The package now uses PSNFSS font commands if available (fallback for
LaTeX 2.09 is still provided).
- Work around clash with classes/packages that define their own example
and examples environments (most notably the beamer class) or execise
environments. The covington package no longer blindly attempts to
define these environments. By default, it does not define them if
they are already defined (covington's own environments, however, are
still available via aliases). By means of a new package option, a
redefinition can also be forced.
- New length woaccsep allows for the adjustment of the distance
between stacked accents.
- Update manual.
- New maintainer: J. Spitzmüller.
- License has been changed to LPPL (in agreement with M. Covington)
- Introduce version numbers. Arbitrarily, we start with 1.1.

hyperxmp
package.
Version: 3.0 2016-07-04
License: lppl1.3
Summary description: Embed XMP metadata within a LaTeX document
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
XMP (eXtensible Metadata Platform) is a mechanism proposed by
Adobe for embedding document metadata within the document itself.
The metadata are designed to be easy to extract, even by programs
that are oblivious to the document's file format.
Most of Adobe's applications store XMP metadata when saving files.
Now, with the hyperxmp package, it is trivial for LaTeX document
authors to store XMP metadata in their documents as well.
hyperxmp integrates seamlessly with hyperref and requires
virtually no modifications to documents that already exploit
hyperref's mechanisms for specifying PDF metadata.
The current version of hyperxmp can embed the following
metadata as XMP: authors, base URL, contact telephone number/postal
address/email address/URL, copyright statement, creation date,
document identifier, document instance identifier, document type,
file format, keywords, language, LaTeX file name, license URL,
metadata writer, PDF version, PDF-generating tool, PDF/A compliance
level and version, primary author's position or title, subject/summary,
and title. hyperxmp is compatible with pdflatex, latex+dvips+ps2pdf,
latex+dvipdfm, xelatex, and lualatex.
Version 3.0 of hyperxmp makes the code compatible with LuaLaTeX 0.85+.
(LuaLaTeX 0.85 completely revamped the program's PDF-related primitives,
breaking compatibility with pdfLaTeX.)
hyperxmp 3.0 also makes the XMP CreateDate, ModifyDate, and MetadataDate
all match the PDF CreationDate, which seems to be required by the
PDF/A standard.

Summary description: A LaTeX class for fulfilling the documentation duties
according to the German minimum wage law MiLoG
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Seit dem 1. Januar 2015 gilt in Deutschland grundsätzlich für alle
Arbeitnehmer
ein flächendeckender gesetzlicher Mindestlohn in Höhe von
derzeit 8,50€ pro Stunde. Mit Wirkung ab 1. August 2015 wurden die
Dokumentations- und Aufzeichnungspflichten gelockert. Nach §17 MiLoG,
muss Beginn, Ende und Dauer der täglichen Arbeitszeit der in §22 MiLoG
definierten Arbeitnehmern (formlos) aufgezeichnet werden. Zusätzlich
ermöglicht `milog.cls` aus praktischen Gründen die Aufzeichnug von
unbezahlten
Pausen und Bemerkungen (Ruhetag, Urlaub, Krank, ...).
Die Erfassung der Arbeitszeiten erfolgt in einer simplen CSV-Datei, aus
der die Klasse automatisch einen Arbeitszeitnachweis erstellt. Alternativ
können die Daten auch durch einen CSV-Export — mit eventueller
Nachbearbeitung
— einer geeigneteten App erhoben werden.

Summary description: Colour and graphics option files
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
graphics-def is a combined distribution consisting of
pdftex.def, luatex.def, xetex.def, dvipdfmx.def and dvisvgm.def
driver option files for the latex graphics and color packages.
It is hoped that by combining their source repositories at
https://github.com/latex3/graphics-def
it will be easier to coordinate updates.
This release adds support for the (no)setpagesize options
to xetex.def and dvipdfmx.def to match dvips/luatex/pdftex,
and re-enables the guards for pst-pdf and psricks packages
in pdftex.def and luatex.def.
