Maarten Fokkinga submitted the calculation package. Version number: 1.0 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Typesetting reasoned calculations, also called calculational proofs. Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The calculation environment formats reasoned calculations, also called calculational proofs. The notion of reasoned calculations or calculational proofs was originally advocated by Wim Feijen and Edsger Dijkstra. The calculation package accepts options fleqn and leqno (with the same effect as LaTeX options fleqn and leqno, and inherits these from the document class), it allows steps and expressions to be numbered (by LaTeX equation numbers, obeying the LaTeX label command to refer to these numbers), and a step doesn't take vertical space if its hint is empty. An expression in a calculation can be given a comment; it is placed at the side opposite to the equation numbers. Calculations are allowed inside hints although numbering and commenting is then disabled. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/calculation More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/calculation We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the savetrees package. Version number: 2.3 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Optimize the use of each page of a LaTeX document Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The goal of the savetrees package is to pack as much text as possible onto each page of a LaTeX document. Admittedly, this makes the document far less attractive. Nevertheless, savetrees is a simple way to save paper when printing draft copies of a document. It can also be useful when trying to meet a tight page-length requirement for a conference or journal submission. The main addition in version 2.3 of savetrees is support for reducing space in Biblatex-produced reference sections, including a Biblatex bibliography style and citation style. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/savetrees/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/savetrees We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

www.tex.ac.uk downtime yesterday
by CTAN Announcements 19 Dec '14

there was scheduled power work in the area of the host department for the archive machine. the host department had assumed that its ups would cover the period of switch over, but no such luck -- it still hadn't restored itself before 1300 utc, when i stopped monitoring. the ctan team apologises for this failure, though it was plainly out of our control (i'm no longer a member of the department, even).
