Scott Pakin submitted an update to the
hyperxmp
package.
Version number: 4.0
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.
hyperxmp integrates seamlessly with hyperref and requires virtually no
modifications to documents that already exploit hyperref's mechanisms
for specifying PDF metadata. hyperxmp can embed a wide variety of
metadata as XMP, including the list of authors, document title, contact
information (telephone number, postal address, email address, etc.),
copyright statement, keywords, natural language, and much more.
hyperxmp is compatible with pdflatex, latex+dvips+ps2pdf,
latex+dvipdfm, xelatex, and lualatex.
Version 4.0 of hyperxmp makes some substantial improvements to PDF/A
compatibility. It also adds support for numerous metadata defined in
the PRISM Basic schema: book edition, DOI, file size in bytes, ISBN,
ISSN, issue number, page count, page ranges, type of parent
publication, URL of the document, and volume number.

whatever inferior characters the font contains

Changes
-------
- Fixes - wrong dir after math, in math inside tabular, in weak L
inside R inside L, and in boxes inside math.
- abelfont now takes into account defaultfontfeatures. This
is a potential source of backwards incompatibilities, but
very likely the risks are very low, and it is, I think, the
expected behavior.

Summary description: LaTeX thesis class for University of Calgary Faculty of Graduate Studies
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ucalgmthesis.cls is a LaTeX class file that produces documents
according to the thesis guidelines of the University of Calgary
Faculty of Graduate Studies.
It uses the memoir class, which provides very powerful and flexible
mechanisms for book design and layout. All memoir commands for changing
chapter and section headings, page layout, fancy foot- and endnotes,
typesetting poems, etc., can be used.
(Memoir is meant as a replacement for the standard LaTeX classes,
so all standard LaTeX commands such as chapter, section, etc.,
still work.) Likewise, any of memoir’s class options can be passed
as options to ucalgmthesis, in particular 12pt to select 12 point type
(11 point is the default).
