License type: lppl1.3
Summary description: Name authority mechanism for consistency in body
text and index
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 2.6 of the nameauth package accounts for names that are split
by a page break by making an index entry before and after the name.
Affix commas in the text (comma option and old syntax) no longer affect
the index. The old syntax is virtually interchangeable with the new
(apart from the cross-indexing macros). One easily can suppress commas
or add commas after affixes.
Many documentation improvements not only try to display the subject
matter in a more succinct and understandable manner, but a number of
special cases are covered. More examples help those looking for
specialty formats and applications, especially in cross-cultural uses.

Summary description: A proposal prototype for LaTeX promotion in Chinese universities
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Here are the original source code and necessary attachment
of _Proposal for Offering TeX Courses and Relevant Resources
in Chongqing University_.
This proposal could be helpful if one is considering suggest
his/her university or company to use TeX (or LaTeX, or XeLaTeX)
as a typesetting system, especially for Chinese universities
and companies.
The present proposal mainly explains the importance and
necessity of introducing TeX, a typesetting system often used
in academic writing, to students and teachers as the
counterpart of Microsoft Word. This proposal starts
from a brief introduction of TeX, then steps further
into its fascinating application on academic writing
and dissertation formatting. In the end, a set of
possible implementation strategies with regard to
the proper introduction of TeX and relevant resources
to our university, is proposed.
Features:
* Proposal with clear thinking and full reasoning;
* Lots of survey data and charts;
* A number of links and reference documents;
* Analysis with Reasoning, Dependencies and Detailed Measures;
* Most importantly, the proposal is written in LaTeX, which is
an example of TeX use.

Summary description: filecontents + macro + verbatim
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This lightweight LaTeX2e package provides two environments called
`filecontentsdef` and `filecontentshere`. They are derived from the
LaTeX `filecontents` environment as extended by Scott Pakin's
[filecontents] [1] package. In addition to the file creation they
either store the (verbatim) contents in a macro (`filecontentsdef`)
or typeset them (verbatim) on the spot (`filecontentshere`).
I developed this to display TeX code verbatim in documentation and
simultaneously produce during the LaTeX run the corresponding files
in order to embed them in the PDF as _file attachment annotations_
(via the services of Scott Pakin's further package [attachfile] [2].)

Version number: 1.9
License type: lppl1.3
Summary description: Attach arbitrary files to a PDF document
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Starting with PDF 1.3 (Adobe Acrobat 4.0), PDF files can contain file
attachments -- arbitrary files that a reader can extract,
just like attachments to an e-mail message. The attachfile package brings
this functionality to pdfLaTeX and LuaLaTeX and provides
some additional features not available in Acrobat, such as the ability to
use arbitrary LaTeX code for the file icon -- including
things like includegraphics, tabular, and math. Settings can be made
either globally or on a per-attachment basis. attachfile
makes it easy to attach files and customize their appearance in the
enclosing document.
Version 1.9 of attachfile issues an error message instead of failing
silently if an invalid icon name is requested. Thanks to
Jean-François Burnol for inadvertently stumbling across the problem and
submitting a bug report. attachfile now correctly handles
the case of filenames with no extension. Finally, the documentation has
been updated to suggest using the luatex85 when using
attachfile with LuaLaTeX 0.85+.
