Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers

xintexpr now provides trigonometrical functions (direct and
inverse) up to 60 digits of precision, and exponentials and
logarithms (via poormanlog package) but for the latter only to
about 9 digits of precision. This will be improved in future.
The trigonometrical functions are (for the most part) implemented
via the high level user interface. Future releases will code them
at lower level, for efficiency.

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
David K. Lewis (Counterfactuals, Blackwell 1973) introduced a sphere
semantics for counterfactual conditionals. He jokingly referred to the
diagrams depicting such sphere models as Ptolemaic astronomy, hence the
name of this package. The macros provided in this package aid in the
construction of sphere model diagrams in the style of Lewis. The macros
all make use of TikZ.

package.
Version number: 4.1
License type: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Embed XMP metadata within a LaTeX document
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
XMP (eXtensible Metadata Platform) is a mechanism proposed by Adobe for
embedding document metadata within the document itself. The metadata
are designed to be easy to extract, even by programs that are oblivious
to the document's file format. Most of Adobe's applications store XMP
metadata when saving files. Now, with the hyperxmp package, it is
trivial for LaTeX document authors to store XMP metadata in their
documents as well.
Version 4.1 of hyperxmp is primarily a bug-fix release. The only new
option is pdfpublisher, which names the publisher of the document.
