CTAN Update: The caption package v3.0o
by CTAN Announcements 31 Mar '07

31 Mar '07

On Fri, 30 Mar 2007 Axel Sommerfeldt submitted an update to the caption package. The caption package provides many ways to customise the captions in floating environments like figure and table, and cooperates with many other packages. Includes rotating captions, sideways captions, continued captions (for tables or figures that come in several parts). A list of compatibility notes, for other packages, is provided in the documentation. The package also provides the caption outside float facility, in the same way that simpler packages like capt-of do. The package supersedes caption2. Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/caption/ Summary description: Customising captions in floating environments License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a bugfix release of the caption package 3.0: - KOMA-Script variants of `parskip' and `parindent' re-added, since they still collide with the actual version of the subfig package (Sigh!) (See changelog for details.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://dante.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/caption/ . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/info/?id=caption (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

CTAN package downgrade: teTeX obsolete
by Robin Fairbairns 30 Mar '07

30 Mar '07

Thomas Esser announced that he had stopped supporting teTeX some time back. Now that a new release of TeX-live has appeared, which has the potential to be used in all applications where teTeX was previously preferred, I have (with Thomas' agreement) moved teTeX to the obsolete tree on CTAN. It will stay there for a while, as reference material. Thanks are due to Thomas for all his work on his excellent distribution, over the years. Robin Fairbairns For the CTAN team
