------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note by the CTAN team regarding names of Catalogue entries:
In an attempt to resolve the ambiguity of graphics package
(i.e. graphics.sty, described by http://www.ctan.org/pkg/graphics)
and graphics bundle (containing graphics.sty as well as six
other packages) we have undertaken to create the new Catalogue
page http://www.ctan.org/pkg/latex-graphics for the description
of the _bundle_. This should hopefully make it to the website
in a very near future.
We are also considering renaming doc to latex-doc and
tools to latex-tools, but are still checking for possible
side-effects.
Please note that nothing of this will affect the actual URLs
on the archive in any way, i.e. the http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/...
URLs will all remain unchanged.

The LuaTeX-ja project submitted an update to the
luatexja
package.
Version number: 20160131.0
License type: bsd
Summary description: Typeset Japanese with Lua(La)TeX
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
* luatexja-preset.sty: support Scale=<fp> and match options
when nfssonly option is specified.
* Japanese font family inside verb and verbatim environment
can be customized by jttdefault.
If luatexja-{preset,fontspec} with match option or ltjsclasses
are used, tfamily changes current Japanese font fmaily to
this jttdefault.
* Fixed several bugs.
Note that IVS support (to enable it, load luatexja-otf.sty and
execute directlua{luatexja.otf.enable_ivs()}) breaks vertical
writing mode with current LuaTeX.
(This IVS support works fine with LuaJITTeX, strangely.)

fontspec
package.
Version: 2.5 2016-01-30
License: lppl1.3
Summary description: Advanced font selection in XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I am pleased to announce a new update for the fontspec package.
Please note it contains some changes regarding font encodings
and the xunicode package that *may* affect its interactions with
other packages.
More details in the notes below and the package documentation.
- v2.5 (2016/01/30) TL2016 release
* Provide a new Unicode font encoding (TU) to replace EU1/EU2 and
xunicode. If this causes problems, load fontspec with the `[euenc]`
option to revert to the old behaviour.
* New command `emfontdeclare` for defining font shapes when arbitrarily
nesting the `emph` command.
* Allow slanted small caps and better internal methods for combining
font shapes; this fixes a few bugs.
* Incorporate new font script tags for Indic fonts.
E.g., when selecting `Script=Bengali`, fontspec will first query
the font for the `bng2` OpenType script, and if not found select `beng`.
* Restrict some font features from being able to be used within
`addfontfeatures` that were causing some font-loading confusion.
* Fixed behaviour in which `aselineskip` and `f@size` would (possibly)
change values after loading the packge.
* Remove copy of `fixltx2e`'s code for footnote symbols;
handled by LaTeX2e now.
* Deprecate `ExternalLocation` for the simpler (and identical) `Path` option.
* Improvement to some warnings/info messages.
* Improve structure of code.
