Summary description: Symbology to draw chemical plants with TikZ
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The LaTeX distribution has a lot of packages to do the wildest
things one can imagine, but when one wants (or has) to draw
schematics of chemical process, he or she realises that there
is a missing tool in the box. The chemplants package is here
to fill that void. It exploits the facilities of the TikZ package
to provide symbols and styles to be used to draw process flow diagrams
of chemical processes.

License type: lppl1.3
Summary description: Typeset fiction, non-fiction and mathematical books
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
>From the README:
o memoir v3.7i
-- indexes now uses protection when being moved from the aux to the
idx file(s)
-- changed loading ifpdf, ifetex, ifxetex and ifluatex to just loading
the new iftex package. Suggested by The LaTeX Support Team.
-- new feature for createmark: the <show> variable now accepts:
nonumber, shownumber and notitle (implies shownumber). The latter
enables chapter headers to be just of the form Chapter <number>
-- By request, added a7paper and b7paper options (plus stockavii,
stockbvii, pageavii and pagebvii)
-- changed the header construction for tableofcontents and
friends. The anchor that hyperref will use for TOC, LOF etc entries
in the TOC will now point above the header not below it.
-- changed a few things in subbottom, which hopefully fixes an issue
with hypcap, https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/440399/3929 (and
https://github.com/ho-tex/oberdiek/issues/42)
-- the handling of absindent, absparsep is now correctly described in
the manual (any changes of these of use of them has to be delayed to
the start of the document via AtBeginDocument)
-- Updated the patched InputIfFileExists to match the one used in the
2019/10/01 format (if using that format, we use the old version)
-- Updated the embedded copy of the booktabs package, bringing it in
ling with booktabs v1.6180339.
-- Changed the warning emitted at the start of loading the caption
package. Apparently users got spooked by it. The caption package
works just fine with with memoir, the warning is just there to remind
users that once the caption package is loaded, all caption related
configurations should go through the caption package interface, not
through the class interface.
-- Fixed a bug in lofmark and lotmark when using the oneside option.
The default headings style uses markright for all marks under oneside,
but due to an ordering mistake, lofmark and lotmark would still be
using markboth unless you explicitly issued pagestyle{headings} in
the preamble. This is now fixed.
-- fixed bug in
ewfootnoteseries, the included footnote type did not
support more than one paragraph. Is now long.
-- fixed bug in pagenote[...]{...}. Under hyperref
pagenote{.}pagenote[.]{.}{pagenote{.} did not add a separator as
expected. It does now.
o memhfixc v1.18
-- added a par to contcaption to get rid of a sporadic space coming
from
efstepcounter under hyperref
-- additionally added a patch when hypcap is loaded, now using
contcaption is no longer an error (hypcap looks to see if caption
has been used)

luatex (and luatex-loader)
Heiko Oberdiek's luatex package was influential in setting up initial
support for LuaTeX in LaTeX, however the functionality was merged many
years ago into luatexbase and from there into ltluatex, and so
included by default into the format, or into separately distributed packages
https://ctan.org/pkg/luatexbase and
https://ctan.org/pkg/ctablestack
The original code is not supported in current LuaTeX and not included
in any other package in texlive if used with a luatex later than 0.80
so is no longer distributed in this release.
The original documented source is available at a separate repository
https://github.com/ho-tex/old-source
All Oberdiek packages
Technical updates to URL across the whole collection: changing http://
to https:// where possible, and normalising most CTAN links to use the
https://ctan.org/pkg/zref form, fixing any broken links reported by a
link checker, see https://github.com/ho-tex/oberdiek/issues/75

License: lppl gpl
Summary description: Draw electrical networks with TikZ
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
* Version 0.9.6 (2019-11-09)
The highlights of this release are the new multiple terminals
BJTs and several stylistic addition and fixes; if you like to
pixel-peep, you will like the fixed transistors arrows.
Additionally, the transforms are much more configurable now,
the pmos and nmos elements have grown an optional bulk
connection, and you can use the flow arrows outside of a
path.
Several small and less small bugs have been fixed.
- Added multi-collectors and multi-emitter bipolar transistors
- Added the possibility to style each one of the two coils
in a transformer independently
- Added bulk connection to normal MOSFETs and the respective anchors
- Added text anchor to the flow arrows, to use them alone in
a consistent way
- Fixed flow, voltage, and current arrow positioning when
auto is active on the path
- Fixed transistors arrows overshooting the connection point,
added a couple of anchors
- Fixed a spelling error on op-amp key noinv input down
- Fixed a problem with quadpoles style=inner and transformer
core having the core lines running too near
