Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
- Use node.travese_id() to find our desired nodes when doing translation
centering across syllables, thereby preventing a conflict with
other packages which insert nodes (such as luatex-ja). See
[#1180](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1180).
- Explicitly communicate the rescaling of `gre@skip@temp@four` back to
TeX, thereby fixing the problem with custom spacings. See
[#1199](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1199).
- With thanks to Claudio Beccari (@OldClaudio), adding a commentary no
longer generates a bad `hbox` during TeX processing (see
[#1202](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1202)).

Summary description: Grab items in lists using user-specified sep char
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
listofitems v1.0 20/8/2016
This simple package is designed to read a list of items
whose parsing character may be selected by the user.
Once the list is read, its items are stored in a structure
that behaves as a dimensioned array. As such, it becomes very
easy to access an item in the list by its number.
For example, if the list is stored in the macro foo, the
item #3 is designated by foo[3].
A component may, in turn, be a list with a parsing delimiter
different from the parent list, paving the way for nesting
and employing a syntax reminiscent of an array of several
dimensions of the type foo[3,2] to access the item #2 of
the list contained within the item #3 of the top-tier list.

While this project was heavily inspired by Claude Garamont's
immortal legacy, Christian did not use any specific font as
a starting point or direct reference for the designs. Most
glyphs were drawn from scratch; when he needed guidance on
a specific character, he searched for the term Garamond and
skimmed through the results for a general impression.
