Version: 0.463 2020-11-05
License: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Semantic, keyval-based mathematics
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A minor update. The keys prime, ', '', and ''' have been changed
so that they automatically set nextupperwithsep=false, since you
probably want f^{prime 2} rather than f^{prime,2}.
Also, the keys preupper, prelower, postupper, postlower etc.
have been changed so that e.g. multiple preupper’s are stacked
from left to right, rather than right to left as was previously
the case. For postupper, it’s from right to left instead.
I doubt this will require any updates to existing documents for
anyone. Also, I have also made a few minor changes in the manual.

Version number: 1.1 2020-11-04
License type: gpl3+ fdl
Summary description: Typesetting TEI-xml-compliant Critical Editions
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
# ekdosis v1.1:---
- Improved documentation with new sections, notably Variae Quaestiones,
Laying Out Parallel Texts.
- ekdosis has been adapted to LaTeX 2020-10-01 (inclusion of xparse and
new hook management).
- Improved DeclareScholar now builds a list of persons within the
<listPerson> element. New command DeclareSource for editions used as
sources. As a consequence, 'source' and 'resp' have been added as
optional arguments of lem and
dg.
- Editorial changes: new commands supplied, surplus, sic and gap
have been added among others.
- Some commands have been renamed: SetxmlBibResource →
AddxmlBibResource and TeXtoTEIPatt → TeXtoTEIPat.
- A new command addentries has been added for modifying the number of
accepted entries on the current page.
- ekdosis now accepts any page numbering scheme. (v1.0 only worked on
pages numbered with Arabic numerals.)
- New command
dgGrp for subvariation.
# Future Work:---
A short, un-commented list of what is planned in the versions of
ekdosis to come follows:---
- Very short-term (weeks):---
1. Text structure: milestone elements.
2. Marginal edition texts: It may happen that the marginalia of
manuscripts contain texts worth editing in addition to and along the
main text to which they are linked by reference signs. 3. Headers and
footers: ekddiv will provide top and bottom marks to be used in
headers and footers. 4. Poetry: full support of the 'verse' package.
- Short-term:---
1. Poetry: the 'ekdverse' environment will provide refined options,
such as metrical analysis, stanzaic forms, &c. Arabic poetry through
the environments and commands provided by the arabluatex package will
also be supported. 2. Correspondence and alignment, segmentation: The
functions are being tested at the time of writing and will be included
shortly in ekdosis.
- Medium-term (months): Indexing, commands and environments for
specific modules of the TEI.

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the
hyperxmp
package.
Version: 5.7 2020-11-01
License: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Embed XMP metadata within a LaTeX document
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
XMP (eXtensible Metadata Platform) is a mechanism proposed by
Adobe for embedding document metadata within the document itself.
The metadata are designed to be easy to extract, even by programs
that are oblivious to the document's file format. Most of Adobe's
applications store XMP metadata when saving files. Now, with the
hyperxmp package, it is trivial for LaTeX document authors to store
XMP metadata in their documents as well.
hyperxmp integrates seamlessly with hyperref and requires virtually
no modifications to documents that already exploit hyperref's mechanisms
for specifying PDF metadata. hyperxmp can embed a wide variety of
metadata as XMP, including the list of authors, document title,
contact information (telephone number, postal address, email address,
etc.), copyright statement, keywords, natural language, and much more.
hyperxmp is compatible with pdflatex, lualatex, xelatex, latex+dvipdfm,
and latex+dvips+Distiller.
Version 5.7 of hyperxmp is primarily a bug-fix release.
As discussed on https://github.com/borisveytsman/acmart/issues/413,
hyperxmp was throwing latexmk into an infinite loop.
Thanks to John Collins, Nelson Posse Lago, Derek Dreyer, and the
other contributors to that discussion for identifying the problem
and brainstorming the solution.
hyperxmp v5.7 also includes, at Moritz Heckscher's request, a minor
modification to define hyxmp@DocumentID and hyxmp@InstanceID at
the end of the preamble instead of at the end of the document.
This enables other packages to hook into hyperxmp's UUID computations.

The bytefield package helps the user create illustrations for network

These illustrations show how the bits and bytes are laid out in a
packet, register, or memory.
Version 2.6 makes a number of improvements related to the curly braces
that group related words. First, the horizontal spacing surrounding
those braces is now more even. Second, the leftwordgroup and
rightwordgroup environments accept optional kev/value parameters.
Third, new curlystyle, leftcurlystyle, and rightcurlystyle options have
been introduced to enable coloring or adding other effects to the curly
braces. Thanks to Victor Toni for his suggestions and help testing.

association-matrix
package.
Version: 1.0 2020-10-25
License: lppl1.3c
Summary description: LaTeX support for creating association matrices
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
association-matrix package initial release to CTAN.
The association-matrix package allows generation of an association matrix,
as follows, from a simple set of row-element and column-element definitions.
By defining that R and S are rows and P and Q are columns and
that R-P and S-Q are associated, the following table is auto-generated:
amxrow{r}{R}
amxrow{s}{S}
amxcol{p}{P}
amxcol{q}{Q}
amxassociate{q}{s}
amxassociate{p}{r}
amxgenerate
| | P | Q |
| R | • | |
| S | | • |
The package supports highlighting a particular row's elements
(e.g. at the end of the related section/chapter).
Individual rendering elements are customisable.
This package makes it easy to typeset such tables even if modifications
to the table are needed while working on the document, without having
to manually implement (and copy-paste, and keep in sync) the order
of association blips (•) and highlighting logic.
