Name of contribution: renditions
Version number: v0.1
Author's name: D. P. Story
Summary description: Using the renditions package, you can create many versions, or
renditions, of content from the same source file.
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a short package sets up comment environments, called renditions.
These renditions can be included or excluded according to the value of
the rendition option. The basic options of this package are max and
rendition,
usepackage[max=4,rendition=3]{renditions}
In the above example, max=4 declares that there are 4 renditions in the
document, the option rendition=3 causes the package to include
rendition3, and to exclude all the others rendition1, rendition2, and
rendition4.

On Fri, 5 Feb 2010, Josef Kleber submitted an update to the
softmaker-freefont
package.
Location on CTAN: /fonts/softmaker-freefont
Summary description: Support files for SoftMaker free fonts.
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
In June 2009 www.freefont.de offered a beautiful handwriting font
for free download: The Softmaker Stone Handwriting.
As handwriting fonts are a quite limited resource in the LaTeX world,
i decided to create support files for this beautiful font. Therefore,
Stone Handwriting will be the starting point for the softmaker-freefont
bundle. Other fonts will be included in future.
Supported fonts at the moment:
Baskerville-Nova (regular + bold + italic + bold italic),
Congress (regular + bold + italic), Delano-Caps, Flagstaff, Henderson,
Iceberg (regular + bold), Jugendstil, Old Blackletter, Stone Handwriting
License: LPPL (not the fonts themselves)
New in v1.8:
- added support for the font family Baskerville-Nova
(regular + bold + italic + bold italic + faked slanted + faked small caps)
Attention: The font is not included! This font is font of the
month (February 2010) and can be downloaded for free (at least
this month) at: http://www.freefont.de
Later you can buy it from Softmaker
