Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We're trying to update GregorioTeX to account for engine changes in
TeXLive2016. This beta contains the first batch of changes, but still
needs further testing against the pretest. We think that there's a
potential problem with xcolor (which we use to implement colored staff
lines). These changes allow documents using our package to compile to
the point where the apparent xcolor problem shows up. We're hoping
that by uploading these changes into the pretest it will be easier for
the xcolor authors to see the problem we're having and then help
diagnose and fix the problem (be it with xcolor or our own package).

Version v2.1 features a major bug fix in the *.dtx source, as well as a

by executing the shell commands from within the LaTeX source and
capture their output, which is formatted and typeset right after the
execution. Further, it is now possible to read saved sessions from a
file.

Version: 2.9 2016-04-27
License: lppl1.3
Summary description: Embed XMP metadata within a LaTeX document
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
XMP (eXtensible Metadata Platform) is a mechanism proposed by Adobe
for embedding document metadata within the document itself.
The metadata are designed to be easy to extract, even by programs
that are oblivious to the document's file format.
Most of Adobe's applications store XMP metadata when saving files.
Now, with the hyperxmp package, it is trivial for LaTeX document
authors to store XMP metadata in their documents as well.
hyperxmp integrates seamlessly with hyperref and requires virtually
no modifications to documents that already exploit hyperref's
mechanisms for specifying PDF metadata. The current version of
hyperxmp can embed the following metadata as XMP: authors,
base URL, contact telephone number/postal address/email address/URL,
copyright statement, creation date, document identifier, document
instance identifier, document type, file format, keywords, language,
LaTeX file name, license URL, metadata writer, PDF version,
PDF-generating tool, PDF/A compliance level and version,
primary author's position or title, subject/summary, and title.
hyperxmp is compatible with pdflatex, latex+dvips+ps2pdf,
latex+dvipdfm, xelatex, and lualatex.
Version 2.9 of hyperxmp improves PDF/A support by providing control
over the PDF/A part and conformance ID; embedding IPTC metadata in
a more validation-friendly manner; and including even empty author,
title, and description metadata when PDF/A is being generated.
Thanks to Leonid Sinev for his help with these. In addition,
hyperxmp v2.9 lets authors indicate the logical document type
(e.g., text or image) in the XMP metadata.

or critical editions where a lot of left-to-right commands
intertwine with Arabic writing. arabluatex is able to process any ArabTeX
input notation. Its output can be set in the same modes of
vocalization as ArabTeX, or in different roman transliterations. It
further allows many typographical refinements. It will eventually
interact with some other packages yet to come to produce from .tex source
files, in addition to printed books, TEI xml compliant
critical editions and/or lexicons that can be searched, analyzed and
correlated in various ways.

pdfxup
package.
Version number: 1.30
License type: lppl1.3
Summary description: Create n-up PDF pages with minimal margins
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
pdfxup is a unix/linux shell script that creates a PDF
document where each page is obtained by combining several
pages of a PDF file given as output. The important feature
of pdfxup, compared to similar programs, is that it tries to
compute the (global) bounding box of the input PDF file, in
order to remove the margins and to keep the text only.
Instead of having the font size divided by 2 (for the case
of 2-up output), in some case you may end up with almost
the same font size as in the original document (as is the
case for a default 'article' document produced by LaTeX).
pdfxup uses ghostscript for computing the maximal bounding
box of (some of) the pages of the document, and then uses
pdflatex (with graphicx package) in order to produce the new
document.
