Geoffrey Poore submitted an update to the
pythontex
package.
Version number: 0.12
License type: lppl
Description:
The package allows you to enter Python code within a LaTeX
document, execute the code, and access its output in the
original document. The Ruby and Julia languages are also
supported. Code is only executed when it has been modified, or
when it meets user-specified criteria. Code may be divided
into user-defined sessions, which automatically run in
parallel. Errors and warnings are synchronized with the LaTeX
document, so that they refer to the document's line numbers.
External dependencies can be tracked, so that code is
re-executed when the data it depends on is modified. The
package also provides syntax highlighting for code in LaTeX
documents via the Pygments syntax highlighter. The package
provides a depythontex utility that creates a copy of the
document in which all code has been replaced by its output.
This is useful for journal submissions, sharing documents, and
conversion to other formats.

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
version 1.6 [2013/09/07]
This version of biblatex-dw was tested with biblatex 2.7a and biber 1.7.
- New option addyear (authortitle-dw only): If set to true, the year of the
publication will be added after the title in citations. The year appears in
parentheses. The default for this option is false.
- BUGFIX: If a title ended with a question mark or an exclamation mark, the
seenote string in footnote-dw was capitalised. This has been fixed.
- BUGFIX: There was a problem with @inbook entries in the bibliography when
using xref=true (the author of the book entry was not always shown). This is
now fixed.
- BUGFIX: Using annotation=true and/or library=true lead to a superfluous
linebreak and dot in those entries which held an annotation and/or library.

The command MTsetmathskips from recent release 1.3 is more
flexible (e.g. for use in an @for loop): its first argument
may be a macro (or any expandable code) giving the letter.
The amsmath macro
esetMathstrut@ is replaced only when
strictly necessary (i.e. if the user makes the parentheses
mathematically active via MTnonlettersobeymathxx).
Again some improvements in the documentation.
