----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package is meant to allow the user to filter out
unwanted warnings and error messages issued by LaTeX,
packages and classes, so they won't pop out when there's
nothing one can do about them.
Filtering goes from the very broad (avoid all messages
by such and such) to the fine-grained (avoid messages
that begin with...).
Messages may be saved to an external file for later
reference.

On Thu, 19 Feb 2009 Josef Kleber submitted an update to the
pdfcomment
package.
Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/pdfcomment
Summary description: A user-friendly interface to pdf annotations
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
For a long time pdflatex has offered the command pdfannot for inserting
arbitrary PDF annotations. However, the command is presented in
a form where additional knowledge of the definition of the PDF format is
indispensable. This package is an answer to the – occasional – questions
in newsgroups, about how one could use the comment function of Adobe
Reader. At least for the writer of LATEX code, the package offers a
convenient and user-friendly means of using pdfannot to provide comments
in PDF files. Since version v1.1, pdfcomment.sty also supports:
LaTeX -> dvips -> ps2pdf, LaTeX -> dvipdfmx and XeLaTeX.
Unfortunately, support of PDF annotations by PDF viewers is sparse to
nonexistent. The reference viewer for the development of this package is
Adobe Reader.
License: LPPL
New in v1.2:
- new options: voffset, hoffset, width, height, opacity, avatar, style
- new annotation type: FreeText annotation
-> pdffreetextcomment
- introduction of an avatar and style system
-> defineavatar, definestyle, options avatar and style
- printing the PDF annotations and popups is possible now!

Name of contribution: biblatex-dw
Author's name: Dominik Waßenhoven
Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/exptl/biblatex-contrib/biblatex-dw/
Summary description: Humanities styles for biblatex
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
version 1.2f
- Adjustments to biblatex version 0.8c. Note that from
this version on biblatex 0.8c is required, so you have to
update biblatex as well if you would like to use
biblatex-dw 1.2f!
-> The biblatex-dw option 'idem' was replaced by the new
biblatex option 'idemtracker'. The standard setting is
'idemtracker=constrict'. If you would like to switch
off the idem functionality, you can use
'idemtracker=false'. For more information on the
'idemtracker' option see the biblatex manual.
- New options 'doi', 'eprint', 'isbn' and 'issn' which can
take the values 'true' and 'false'. With these options
you can decide whether you want to have printed the
corresponding fields or not. The default for these
options is 'false' (as was the standard before).
- New option 'idemfont' which can take the values
'smallcaps', 'italic', 'bold' and 'normal'. The default
is none which means that the 'idem' string is printed in
the font shape of 'namefont'.
- New option 'ibidemfont' which can take the values
'smallcaps', 'italic' and 'bold'. The default is none
which means that the 'ibidem' string is printed in normal
font shape.
- New macro 'jourvolstring' which introduces the volume of
an article entry. The default is a space (as it was the
case before), but you can adjust it to your needs, e.g.:
enewcommand*{jourvolstring}{addspace voladddotspace}
- New macro 'journumstring' which introduces the number in
article entries, if the option 'journumafteryear' is set
to 'true'. The default for this macro is a comma,
followed by the bibstring 'number' and a non-breakable
space. You can redefine it to your needs, e.g.:
enewcommand*{journumstring}{addspace}
- If there is no volume in an article entry, but the month
field is set, the date is separated from the journal
title by a comma and a space, not only a space.
- Fixed some BUGS concerning the xref functionality.
- Reorganized some bibliography drivers.
- Enhanced the documentation.

PDF Annotations readable by Acrobat Reader with latex.

pdfmarginpar provides the pdfmarginpar command which is

small icons indicate the in-text position where the message
originates, popups provide detailed messages.

Arthur Ogawa has made substantial revisions to the natbib
package for the American Physical Society and their REVTeX
collection. These are mainly to emulate the features of the

incompatible with natbib. All this is to allow the upcoming
new release of REVTeX to function properly.
The new features allow references to be merged within the
bibliography listing itself. They require special BibTeX
style files, provided by the APS.
Patrick Daly has made extensive tests to ensure that the
regular features of natbib are unchanged.

Summary description: Songs package updated to version 2.7!
License type: gpl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The Songs package has been updated to version 2.7!
Since the last CTAN announcement many useful
improvements have been added including:
* A more flexible and user-friendly keyval syntax for
entering song information
* A chord-replay system that allows users to type chords
only once when multiple verses of a song use the same
chords
* A chorus-replay system that can automatically insert a
copy of the chorus on fresh pages when generating foils
for an overhead projector
* The automatic transposition system now recognizes and
correctly transposes solfedge names for notes.
* Multinational characters can now be used in index
files. (Sorting of multinational characters is based on
the machine's current locale setting.)
* More than two columns in song sections are now
possible.
* The chord-replay system now supports memorizing and
replaying multiple sequences of chords, stored in user-
defined registers.
* Graphical begin- and end-repeat signs can be typeset
with lrep and
rep.
* Sequences of chords grouped over a single syllable can
be replayed either together or separately over a single
syllable or multiple syllables.
* Many bug-fixes and additional customization options
have also been added.
As always, the latest version of the songs package,
including song-entry utilities and self-installers for
Windows, can be downloaded from the package webpage at:

As announced two days ago I have virtualized the services provided by
tug.ctan.org. This means that my institution, Saint Michael's College,
has allowed me to put the services onto a box that lives in the server
room, so that it has uninterrupted power, regular professional backups,
etc. (It is also greener.)
The system is an intricate combination of baling wire and expectorant,
and many of my services had at least a little trouble, but in particular
the www services had database trouble (basically, PostgreSQL 8.3 is
pickier about foreign keys than the version on which the service
previously ran). I believe that most of those are now back.
I appreciate folks's patience.
