Summary description:
A BibLaTeX implementation of the GBT7714-2015 bibliography style
for Chinese users
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
### date of change: 2017-04-11 to version v1.0h, the last version support texlive2015
* Changes to pkg code:
- *.bbx: deal compatibility problem of author style for texlive2017,
because the old cmd printdateextralabel with biblatex3.4 has been
replaced by printlabeldateextra with biblatex3.7 in texlive2017.
- *.bbx: change the seperator between multi-language reference text
form cmd par to cmd newline for the gb7714-2015 align style
- *.bbx: fix a flaw reported by Lee Zeping. remove the comma between
journaltitle and (number) when the volume is undefined.
- *.bbx: add an option gbpub to control the publishing info.
if gbpub=false, publishing info's format is the biblatex standard
style, otherwise is gb7714-2015 style. The origin idea comes from Wayne08.
- *.bbx: fix a flaw reported by zjsdut(a)163.com. remove the
dot before url when url is the only info available。
- *.bbx: add an option gbnoauthor for author-year style.
when author is undefined, set option gbnoauthor=true then
author with 佚名orNOAUTHOR will be defined.
note that with biblatex version 3.7 or higher for multiple
DeclareStyleSourcemap support, code can be simplifed, because
the realization code now with texlive2016(biblatex 3.4) is
subjected to the one DeclareStyleSourcemap constraint.
* Changes to documentation:
- biblatex-gb7714-2015.tex: revise this document
- *.bib: correct a warning which is caused by long multi-line url info.

Summary description: An OpenType Devanāgarī font designed for scholars
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Shobhika is a free, open source, Unicode compliant, OpenType font with
support for Devanāgarī, Latin, and Cyrillic scripts. It is available in
two weights—regular and bold.
The font is designed with over 1600 Devanāgarī glyphs, including support
for over 1100 conjunct consonants, as well as vedic accents.
The Latin component of the font not only supports a wide range of characters
required for Roman transliteration of Sanskrit, but also provides a subset
of regularly used mathematical symbols for scholars working with scientific
and technical documents.
The project has been launched under the auspices of the Science and Heritage
Initiative (SandHI) at IIT Bombay, and builds upon the following two fonts
for its Devanāgarī and Latin components respectively: (i) Yashomudra by
Rājya Marāṭhī Vikās Saṃsthā, and (ii) PT Serif by ParaType.
We would like to thank both these organisations for releasing their fonts
under the SIL Open Font Licence, which has enabled us to create Shobhika.

The set of the Japanese logical fonts (JFMs) that are used as
standard fonts in pTeX and upTeX contains both Unicode JFMs and
non-Unicode JFMs. This bundle provides an alternative set of
non-Unicode JFMs that are tied to the virtual fonts (VFs) that
refer to the glyphs in the Unicode JFMs. Moreover it provides a
LaTeX package that redefines the NFSS settings of the Japanese
fonts of (u)pLaTeX so that the new set of non-Unicode JFMs will
be employed. As a whole, this bundle allows users to dispense
with the mapping setup on non-Unicode JFMs.

Summary description: Draw Nassi-Schneidermann charts
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Draw Nassi-Shneiderman charts
Even in the age of OOP one must develop algorithms.
Nassi-Shneiderman diagrams are a well known tool to describe an
algorithm in a graphical way. This package StrukTeX presents
some macros for generating those diagrams in a LaTeX document.
The package provides the most important elements of a
Nassi-Shneiderman diagram, including processing blocks, loops,
mapping conventions for alternatives, etc. Diagrams are drawn
using the picture environment (using pict2e for preference).
The author is Jobst Hoffmann. See also pict2e.
If one is working with (X)emacs and AUCTeX the drawing process is
supported by structex.el, a style file which knows the syntax of most
of the commands from the StrukTeX package.
Version v2.2-1 adds a forallin loop and two options (debug, outer).

The autosp preprocessor now supports the use of one to

generate the effect of a global skip QQsk, HQsk, TQsk
or Qsk, respectively; these generate corresponding local
skips qqsk, hqsk, qsk or qsk, respectively, in every
staff of the output scores, which ensures that the staffs
remain horizontally synchronized. Furthermore, global skips
are automatically inserted before accidentals on beamed
collective-coding notes.

of a different way, and with a few additional abilities, such as
facilities for a list of poems, an index of first lines, and some
structural commands.

Hood Chatham submitted the
spectralsequences
package.
Version number: 1.0
License type: lppl
Summary description: Print spectral sequence diagrams using PGF/TikZ
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The spectralsequences package is a specialized tool built on top of
pgf/tikz for drawing spectral sequences. It provides a powerful,
concise syntax for specifying the data of a spectral sequence, and then
allows the user to print various pages of spectral sequence,
automatically choosing which subset of the classes, differentials, and
structure lines to display on each page. It also handles most of the
details of the layout. At the same time, spectralsequences is extremely
flexible. It is closely integrated with tikz to ensure that users can
take advantage of as much as possible of its expressive power. It is
possible to turn off most of the automated layout features and draw
replacements using tikz commands. Spectralsequences also has a
carefully designed error reporting system intended to ensure that it is
as clear as possible what is going wrong.
