Summary description: Spot colours support for XeLaTeX
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A spot color is one that is printed with its own ink.
Typically, printers use spot colors in the production
of books or other printed material. The spotcolor package
by Jens Elstner is a first attempt to introduce the use of
spot colors with pdfLaTeX. The xespotcolor package is a
reimplementation of this package so to be usable with
XeLaTeX. As such, it has the same user interface and
the same capabilities.
Currently, xdvipdfm-x does not support the spot command,
which is needed in order to be able top use commands like
the following one:
definecolor{Spots}{spotcolor}{SOMECOLOR,1.0}
File PATCHES contains patches that should be applied to the
source code of xdvipdfm-x so to be able to deal with such
commands. Also, file spotcolor-test.tex is test file based on
the documentation of the original package. Finally, file
spotcolor-test.pdf cannot be produced with a current TeX
installation. When the source code of xdvipdfm-x will be
updated, then the contents of this folder will change.

Summary description: The LaTeX standard tools bundle.
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This update contains code fixes to multicol (from v1.8g to v1.8i) see
change-log below. This should be installed as multicols* is not working
correctly in the current version!
In addition it contains documentation updates for various files,
correcting typos found by Karl Berry. No version changes (only date
changes) to those packages as the code is unchanged.
2014-10-28 <Frank.Mittelbach(a)latex-project.org>
* multicol.dtx: In end{multicols*} only add vertical space if
not doing already doing
aggedcolumns and add
ull to hide
the final fill if added so that it doesn't get removed again.
2014-10-28 <Frank.Mittelbach(a)latex-project.org>
* afterpage.dtx, array.dtx, bm.dtx, calc.dtx, dcolumn.dtx,
delarray.dtx, enumerate.dtx, ftnright.dtx, hhline.dtx,
layout.dtx, longtable.dtx, multicol.dtx, showkeys.dtx, tabularx.dtx,
theorem.dtx, trace.dtx, varioref.dtx, verbatim.dtx, xspace.dtx
Fixed typos found by Karl Berry in documentation (no version
number change)
2014-09-12 <Frank.Mittelbach(a)latex-project.org>
* multicol.dtx: change ragged columns to not just fill the
column but also back up by maxdepth if they otherwise become
overfull as adding glue at the bottom means the column will
never have any depth and before they had. (pr/4395)
maxdepth is applied to all column boxes. That was initially not
necessary as splitmaxdepth was doing the trick. However, the
moment those boxes get reboxed this information is lost and
resulted in some subtle errors. (pr/4395)
Suppress even really bad overfull warnings while looping
