PACKAGE NAME CHANGED
====================
After publishing banglatex, a developer requested me to change
its name since he had developed a package (albeit a quite different
one from mine) 3 years ago by the same name.
I had no way of knowing about his package as he did not upload it
to CTAN. Nonetheless, I have decided to change the name of my package
from 'banglatex' to 'latexbangla'.
This update adds no other feature.

License: lppl1.3
Summary description: Name authority mechanism for consistency in body text and index
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I am pleased to announce the release of nameauth 3.0.
This extensive redesign of the package brings greater simplicity,
compactness, and power.
Notable feature additions include:
* Alternate names are available for both Western names and
comma-delimited non-Western names.
* The index macros generate both `see' and `see also' types of references.
More can be done in terms of index management.
* Writing custom name format hooks has been simplified greatly.
* In most cases, the package remains backward-compatible with
earlier versions through the use of package options.
The modular redesign of the package has reduced its size by over
100 lines even after adding features. Distinct paths exist for
printing names in the text, putting page entries in the index,
and putting cross-references into the index.
