Other changes: Package now obeys standard ofiles switch which suppresses the generation of the .svn file. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/svn-multi/ .

by CTAN Announcements 22 Jun '07

22 Jun '07

A minor problem with the extsizes package has been reported. Since CTAN has no current address for the designated maintainer, the original author (Wolfgang May) has volunteered to provide a corrected version. The new version is now installed, at Cambridge, and is even now on its progress around the world. Thank you, Prof. May, for the new version. Robin Fairbairns For the CTAN team
