License: lppl1.3
Summary description: Multilingual support for Plain TeX or LaTeX

----------------------------------------------------------------------
What's new
----------
- Existing ldf files take priority over declared options
with DeclareOption (except hebrew).
- With a few exceptions, ini files have reached version 1.0.
- New key `import' for abelprovide, which also defines dates.
This means babel currently provides (total or partial) support
for about 200 languages. Many of them are usable with XeTeX
and LuaTeX.
Current development is focused on Unicode engines, mainly
font handling and bidi writing.
