Summary description: Upload or validate a package for CTAN
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This program can be used to automate the upload of a package to CTAN.
The description of the package is contained in a configuration file.
The provided information is validated in any case. If the validation
succeeds and not only the validation is requested, then the provided
archive file is placed in the incoming area of the CTAN for further
processing by the CTAN team.
In any case any finding during the validation is reported at the end
of the processing. Note that the validation is the default and an
official submission has to be requested by an appropriate command
line option.
ctan-o-mat requires an Internet connection to the CTAN server. Even
the validation retrieves the known attributes and the basic constraints
from the server.

New
===
New command abelfont (in Unicode engines) to define
language/script dependent fonts. Related to it, new
keys (script, language) in abelprovide.
A common mistake is to leave some space(s) in
captions<lang>, which go to the document. Now babel
removes them.
A couple of fixes:
- Error with hyphenrules in abelprovide in some cases.
- hyphenrules doesn't set languagename any more (which
was against the documented behavior).
