Nicola Talbot submitted an update to the
glossaries
package.
Version number: 4.0
License type: lppl
Summary description: Create glossaries and lists of acronyms
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Major update.
glossaries.sty has changed the way information is written to
external glossary files. This means that descriptions can span
multiple paragraphs without exceeding makeindex's buffer. It
also reduces the amount of escaping of xindy/makeindex special
characters and obviates the need for sanitizing of the name,
description and symbol keys. The new version should work with
documents created with older versions, but you may get
deprecated warnings.
New package glossaries-prefix.sty added to the bundle.
See CHANGES file for full list of updates.

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the
xint
package.
Version number: 1.09f
License type: lppl
Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
New features:
* xintZapSpaces /completely expandably/ removes both leading and
ending space tokens (char code 32) from its input. The input is
not altered in any other way. The variant xintZapSpacesB
additionally transforms <spaces>{braced}<spaces in braced (now
unbraced...). xintZapFirstSpaces and xintZapLastSpaces do
what their name indicate. The input may contain unmatched if,
fi tokens etc... but top level space tokens are assumed to be
of character code 32, as this works with delimited macros.
* the completely expandable xintCSVtoList now strips out all
spaces around commas or at the start and end of the list of
the comma separated items (using xintZapSpacesB).
* the non completely expandable xintFor et al. all similarly now
removes all spaces around commas.
* xintFor et al. are extended to accept all macro parameters
from #1 to #9 (in arbitrary order); this will prove very useful
for those who need to typeset a tabular on 9-dimensional paper.
I plan on issuing at some point a spin-off package with the macros
above (all those described in the documentation section on the
Utilities provided by xint.sty). Perhaps xintZapSpaces could be
made into a little package of its own; or the package should
contain only what is necessary for xintFor and its variants.
Feedback will be welcome on whether this is worthwile and if the
thing should, as the xint bundle packages, be made available to
all macro formats or only as a LaTeX package.
