On Thu, 10 May 2012 Uwe Lück submitted the
dowith
package.
Summary description: Apply a command to a list items – no separators, no iterator
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
`dowith.sty' provides macros for applying a command to all
elements of a list without separators, such as
`DoWithAllIn{<cmd>}{<list-macro>}', and also for extending
and reducing macros storing such lists. Applications in mind
belonged to LaTeX, but the package should work with other
formats as well. Loop and list macros in other packages are
discussed. There is an emphasis on expandability (no iterator),
without relying on e-TeX.
Privately, I have used macros for a more powerful package where
the command may have more than one argument and there is a
separator in output, such as a comma or a vertical stroke
between links. This extended package may soon appear here as well.
KEYWORDS: macro programming, loops, list macros
RELATED PACKAGES: etextools, etoolbox, forarray, forloop,
multido, moredefs, lmake, texapi, xfor, xspace

cjk
package.
Summary description: CJK language support
License type: gpl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This update doesn't introduce important new things; it's mainly a maintainance release, fixing only minor issues.
Enjoy!
--------------------------
new:
CJKfntef.sty:
New commands varCJKunderline, CJKunderanyline,
CJKunderanysymbol. See the example file `CJKfntef.tex'
for typical usage.
cjk-enc.el:
Emacs 23 and newer is now supported, thanks to patches
from Leung Hin-Tak.
Leung Hin-Tak also contributed Thai support for UTF-8
encoding, making emacs an alternative to Thai word
separator programs like `cttex' or `swath'. See the
example file `thai_utf8.tex' for a typical usage.
changed:
Special XeTeX support has been removed (file `xCJK.sty'
and others). Please use the separate `xeCJK' package
instead.
Peter Breitenlohner contributed various minor fixes and
improvements to the many conversion programs like
`cjklatex' or `bg5conv'.
The Thai metrics files for `norasi' and `garuda' were
updated to version 0.5 of the `font-tlwg' bundle.
errors:
CJKfntef.sty:
An incompatibility with recent versions of `ulem.sty'
was fixed.
ruby.sty:
Fix case where furigana is smaller than base glyph.
