Name of contribution: cleveref
Author's name: Toby Cubitt
Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/cleveref/
Summary description: Automatic cross-reference formatting.
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This version makes customising the reference formats far simpler and
less tedious. It also adds a new conjunction and format part, used in
lists containing just a pair of items. This makes certain frequently
requested comma styles possible. The label command can now take an
optional argument that overrides the automatically determined reference
style, allowing the format of references to individual labels to be
customised separately if so desired. Finally, this version removes the
need to explicitly pass options to enable support for the hyperref,
ntheorem and amsmath packages. Instead, it enables the support
automatically if these packages are loaded. (As ever, cleveref must be
loaded last to work properly.)

Name of contribution: natbib
Author's name: Patrick Daly
Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/natbib
Summary description: Update to natbib and bibentry
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It seems that the use of edef in natbib was causing some other packages
not to function correctly. This has now been replaced by protected@edef
which hopefully will work better.
In the bibentry companion, a global definition for the doi macro is
included; this appears in many of the modern bibtex styles. Normally,
this is used only within thebibliography where a local definition is
provided.

> TeX Gyre Chorus is a font derived from handwritten letterforms of the
> Italian Renaissance. It was designed by Hermann Zapf (ITC Zapf Chancery,
> 1979; currently, other variants of this typeface are available).
> TeX Gyre Chorus is based on the URW Chancery L Medium Italic font, but
> heavily extended. The Vietnamese and Cyrillic characters were added by
> Han The Thanh and Valek Filippov, respectively.
> The font contains nearly 900 glyphs. Unlike for other fonts
> from the TeX Gyre collection, Greek letters are missing and so are small
> caps (using capital forms of chancery characters for typesetting whole
> words should be forbidden by law). The font is available in Postscript,
> TeX and Open Type formats. Please note that with the release of TeX Gyre
> Chorus the QuasiChancery font becames obsolete.
