On Mon, 2 May 2011 Scott Pakin submitted an update to the
bundledoc
package.
Summary description: Bundle together all the files needed to build a LaTeX document.
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
bundledoc is a post-processor for the snapshot package that
bundles together all the classes, packages, and files needed
to build a given LaTeX document. It reads the .dep file
that snapshot produces, finds each of the files mentioned
therein, and archives them into a single .tar.gz (or .zip,
or whatever) file, suitable for moving across systems,
transmitting to a colleague, etc.
As an added bonus, this distribution includes a small script
called arlatex. arlatex is a LaTeX-specific archiving
program that combines a bunch of files into a single .tex
file. When the .tex file is run through latex, all of the
original files are recreated and the LaTeX document is
built. bundledoc can be easily configured to use arlatex as
its archiver in place of tar, zip, etc.
Version 3.1 includes a --listdeps option that instructs
bundledoc to list all of the document's dependencies,
optionally without even producing an archive. (This feature
was proposed by Tobias Mueller.)

On Sun, 1 May 2011 Scott Pakin submitted an update to the
hyperxmp
package.
Summary description: Embed XMP metadata within a LaTeX document.
License type: lppl
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: title, authors, primary author's title or position,
metadata writer, subject, keywords, copyright, and license
URL. hyperxmp currently embeds XMP only within PDF
documents but is compatible with pdflatex,
latex+dvips+ps2pdf, latex+dvipdfm, xelatex, and lualatex.
Version 1.3 fixes a bug caused by the use of hyperref's
unicode option, adds a new pdfmetalang option for
specifying the language in which the metadata is written,
cleans up some of the code, and updates much of the
documentation.
