Summary description: Prevent line breaks after single letter words, units, or adademic titles
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 0.1:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The purpose of this new package is to prevent line breaks after nonsyllabic
prepositions and single letter conjuctions. This behavior is required
by typographic norms in some languages such as Czech or Polish. Luavlna
can detect languages used in the text and insert spaces only in parts of
the document where languages that require this feature were used.
It supports both plain LuaTeX and LuaLaTeX.
Version 0.1a:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Added luavlna- prefix to all Lua modules in order to prevent possible
naming clashes with other modules.
Version 0.1b:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is a bug fix release; there was a missing test in the Lua code,
which could result in a compilation error.

Summary description: Date printing, formatting, and manipulation in TeX
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
TeX and LaTeX provide few facilities for dates by default, though many
packages have filled this gap. texdate fills it, as well, with a pure
TeX-primitive implementation.
It can print dates, advance them by numbers of days, weeks, or months,
determine the weekday automatically (with an algorithm cribbed from the
dayofweek.tex file written by Martin Minow), and print them in (mostly)
arbitrary format. It can also print calendars (monthly and yearly)
automatically, and can be easily localized for non-English languages.

Correct parsing of biber's log file.

as INPUT or OUTPUT files no longer exist at end of run.
Update example latexmrc file for pythontex.
Better error message when .bib file(s) not found.
Better handling and diagnostics when names of expected and actual
names of .log disagree.
In particular, there is some automatic reconfiguration when .log file
is not in expected place (e.g., because the -aux-directory option is
used and the TeX engines don't support it).
Fix problem of .bib files sometimes not being found by bibtex when
latexmk runs under msys and -outputdirectory is specified.
Add use of environment variable LATEXMKRCSYS to specify system rc file.
