apa6e
package.
Summary description: Formats manuscripts according to APA 6th edition guidelines
License type: other-free
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a minimalist class file for formatting manuscripts in the style
described the American Psychological Association (APA) 6th edition
guidelines. Perhaps someday the more traditional (and capable)
apa.cls will gain support for the 6th edition of the APA guidelines, in
which case you should probably use it instead. But in the mean time,
this class may be useful.

what, me? (i'm only working on one latex document, atm -- the faq --
which we call latex as a courtesy, so that it doesn't get tetchy.)
anyway, thanks for the upload; i've installed the new version and
updated the catalogue repository.

the delayed announcement means that the catalogue entry is probably
up-to-date, by now.

thanks for the upload; i've installed the new version and updated the
catalogue repository. (this package provides *such* a lot of
facilities, the catalogue entry looks more than usually sketchy...)

The delay in announcement means that the catalogue entry should
currently be up-to-date.
