Patrick Bender submitted the pdbf-toolkit package. Version number: 1.0.1 License type: other-free Summary description: A Toolkit for Creating Janiform Data Documents Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- PDBF - A Toolkit for Creating Janiform Data Documents PDBF documents are a hybrid format. They are a valid PDF and a valid HTML page at the same time. You can now optionally add an VirtualBox OVA file with a complete operating system to the PDBF document. Yes, this means that the resulting file is a valid PDF, HTML, and OVA file at the same time. If you change the file extension to PDF and open it with an PDF viewer, you can see the static part of the document. If you change the file extension to HTML and open it with a Browser (currently Chrome/Firefox/Safari/IE 10 supported), you can see the dynamic part of the document. And if an ova file is attached you can also change the file extension to OVA and install and run the attached operating system. The difference between the PDF and the HTML version is that the PDF version contains static version of all PDBF elements, whereas the HTML version is dynamic. For example you can zoom into graphs, temporarly remove dataseries from the graph, inspect and change the underling query of the PDBF element and see the result of the change directly in the browser. This approach works completely offline. No internet connection is required, neither at compile time, nor at viewing time. Read more at http://uds-datalab.github.io/PDBF/ A [demo paper](https://infosys.uni-saarland.de/publications/p1972-dittrich.html) of our tool is appearing at [VLDB 2015](http://www.vldb.org/2015/).

Will Robertson submitted an update to the unicode-math package. Version number: 0.8 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Unicode mathematics support for XeTeX and LuaTeX. Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - v0.8 (2015/07/29) **Breaking changes in this update!** * `mathrm` (`mathup`), `mathit`, `mathbf`, `mathsf`, and `mathtt` revert to their traditional LaTeX meanings; they are set up to match their equivalent text fonts unless specifically set using `setmathrm` and friends from `fontspec` or the new `setmathfontface` in `unicode-math`. These commands should be used for *multi*-letter identifiers. * New symbol commands have been added, `symrm` (`symup`), `symit`, ..., to replace the behaviour of the old commands. These should be used for *single*-letter identifiers. See the package documentation for more detail on these and related commands. * Package options `mathit=sym`, `mathbf=sym`, etc., reverse the changes above to revert to pre-v0.8 behaviour for `mathXYZ`. Regardless of package option, `symXYZ` always maps to symbols and `mathtextXYZ` is provided for the traditional `mathXYZ` font switch. * New command `setoperatorfont` to set the font used for commands such as `sin` and `cos`. Usage: `setoperatorfontmathbf` or any command defined with `setmathfontface`. * Traditional LaTeX `DeclareMathAlphabet` now works again for legacy font-loading packages. * Commands defined to force Greek letters with `upbeta` and `itbeta`, etc. * Assorted bug fixes and minor changes. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/unicode-math More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/unicode-math We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Each of these takes a substyle number as argument. moderncvcolor takes a color name as argument. - added a new style, fancy. - added an optional argument to moderncvstyle to specify style options, i.e. moderncvstyle[options]{style}. Below is a list of the available options per style: * classic > to specify of one's name should appear left or right at the top: left (default) or right; * casual > to specify of one's name should appear left or right at the top: left (default) or right; * banking > to specify how the section- and subsectionrules should be set: fullrules, shortrules, mixedrules (default; full rules for sections, short rules for subsections), centered (fullrules with centered title) and norules (norules, small caps font); > to specify how the body should be aligned: left (default), center or right; * oldstyle & fancy n/a - added a new color variant: burgundy. - corrected the color of addressstyle to match the one effectively used (color2). - adjusted the bibliography spacing to handle entries with or without labels. - added a check on the emptyness of itle when setting the hyperref document properties. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/moderncv/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/moderncv We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
