Summary description: Flexible LaTeX tabulars
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabu Release 2.9
The contributed tabu package relied on patching internal interfaces
of core latex packages and stopped working in recent LaTeX releases.
The original author, Florent Chervet appears to be out of contact,
and the package had not been updated since 2011.
A tabu-fixed team has been set up at GitHub to make any immediate
fixes required to make the package usable.
Initially this consists of members of the LaTeX3 project.
Please see
https://github.com/tabu-fixed/tabu
for details of issues fixed in this release, and an issue tracker
for reporting any other issues.

ltxguidex
package.
Version number: 0.1.0
License type: lppl1.3c
Summary description: An extended ltxguide class
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The ltxguidex document class extends ltxguide with a set of environments
and commands that make writing beautiful LaTeX documentation easier and
more natural. Currently, many packages define their own extensions to
documentation support inline with their packages, leaving everyone to
copy/paste their own contributions. New macros include environments for
indicating bugs, notes, and warnings, typesetting code next to a listing,
and extended support for documenting keyval options.
At the moment, ltxguidex is an experimental public beta; it intends to
demonstrate a hopeful new direction without committing to a stable public
API. Although ltxguidex is now suitable for use in your own documentation,
do not be surprised if future versions break your docs.

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the
xint
bundle.
Version: 1.3d 2019-01-06
License: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Improvements and new features
- xintexpr: the gcd() and lcm() multi-arguments functions have
been refactored to handle general fractions. The dependency on
xintgcd is removed.
- xintexpr: xinteval, xintieval, xintiieval, and xintfloateval
as synonyms to xintthexpr...
elax etc..., but with the
(comma-separated) expression as a usual braced macro argument.
Attention: these names were formerly used with some other
(barely documented) meanings, for which xintexpro, xintiexpro,
etc... are now used.
- xintexpr: xintifsgnexpr, xintifsgnfloatexpr, xintifsgniiexpr,
xintunassignexprfunc, xintunassigniiexprfunc,
xintunassignfloatexprfunc, isone() and isint().
Bug fix
- xintcore, xintexpr : division in xintiiexpr was broken for a
zero dividend and a one-digit divisor (e.g. 0//7) since 1.2p
due to a bug in xintiiDivMod for such arguments. The bug was
signaled (thanks to Kpym for report) and fixed shortly after
1.3c release of June 2018 but I then **completely forgot** to
upload a bugfix release to CTAN at that time, apologies for
that.
And the usual lot of documentation improvements.
See CHANGES.html for more details.
