bredzenie.sty — a Polish version of “lorem ipsum…”
When developing LaTeX classes one needs some sample text to demonstrate
the layout. A drawback of the classic “lorem ipsum” is that it
is Latin, so it doesn’t emulate the ”look and feel” of other languages.
For the development of Polish document classes I have created
the package bredzenie, which provides several paragraphs of pseudo-Polish
generated with Hidden Markov Models and Recurrent Neural
Networks trained on a corpus of Polish.

Summary description: Support for Azerbaijani within babel
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the babel style for Azerbaijani.
This language poses special challenges because no traditional
font encoding contains the full character set, and therefore a
mixture must be used (eg, T2A and T1).
It's compatible with Unicode engines (luatex, xetex), which are
very likely the most convenient way to write Azerbaijani documents.

Summary description: LaTeX package for creating randomized Multiple
Choice questions>
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The MCexam package is a LaTeX package that automatically randomly
permutes the order of questions and answer options in different
versions of a multiple choice exam/test. Next to the exam versions
themselves, the package also allows printing a concept version of the
exam, a key table with the correct answers or points, and a document
with solutions and explanation per exam version. The package also
allows writing an R code which processes the results of the exam and
calculates the grades.
The package was developed for large-scale randomized multiple choice
exams at my department. The functionalities of this package may
overlap with the esami package and the AMC program but there were
some special requirements at my department which are not included in
these packages. In particular the MCexam provides the following
features:
- The possible answer permutation patterns are completely flexible
and can entirely be specified by the user.
- Typesetting the answer options is completely flexible with the
MCanswers environment.
- At my university, the students have to fill in a standard one-page
answer form and unprocessed results from these forms are directly
provided to the examiner. The package writes an R code which
processes and analyses these results.
- Although this is subjective, I find the MCexam commands less dense
and more efficient.
