Tobias Weh submitted the
metrix
package.
Version number: 1.0
License type: lppl
Summary description: A package to typeset metric/prosodic
symbols standalone or above syllables.
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the initial version of metrix. A package to typeset the
metrics (prosodics) as a line of symbols or above the syllables
of a verse. It uses an ASCII like syntax for the symbols, e.g. u
for an elementum brevis, _ for an elementum longum or u_uu for
an elementum anceps. The symbols can be aligned above (or below)
the syllables if you give the verse in a hyphenated form. A
short example by Ovid in his Tristia 4,10,26:
metrics{_ _ _ _ _ | _ u u _ u u _ }
{et quod temp-ta-bam | scri-be-re ver-sus e-rat}
Furthermore metrix defines three new commands for accent like
symbols (lng, rv and acct) and a macro to print the bow
connecting two vowels or syllables (ow).

Carsten Ace Dahlmann submitted an update to the
uni-wtal-lin
package.
Version number: 0.2
License type: lppl
Summary description: Citation style for linguistic studies at
the University of Wuppertal
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
- MAJOR CHANGE OF BIBLIOGRAPHY RULES: To be compatible with the
major changes of the bibliography rules of the Institute for
Linguistics Wuppertal that took place with the release of the
new 5th edition of the brochure Germanistik in Wuppertal,
this style had to be changed in the following ways:
- Change of rule dependency: Since the journal ZS is no longer
recommended for cases of doubt by the brochure, only the
Unified style sheet for linguistics (USSL) is being used for
fallback rules. This reduces the checking of interdependent
rule changes for future updates (before: own interpretation >
BUW > ZS > USSL + Style sheet for Mouton journals, after: own
interpretation > BUW > USSL).
- Added an = before the series.
- No comma anymore between series and number.
- Series now at the very end of the entry.
- Colon instead of comma before pages of journal (before: USSL
rule, after: BUW rule).
- Number of journal now divided from volume by colon instead of
being in parathesis without space directly after volume
(before: USSL rule, after: BUW rule).
- Page now after publisher+location instead of before.
- Now URL: before URL (before: USSL rule, after: BUW rule).
- Changed both multinamedelim and finalnamedelim to a slash.
- No forced comma after note anymore.
- Edition as a superscripted number after the year if field
edition is INT.
- Edition as usual text after published+location if field
edition is not INT.
- Added option edsuper for deactivating superscripted edition.
- Updated documentation (see also for detailed explanation of
how the BUW rules have been interpreted (German only).
