Summary description: A modern curriculum vitae class.
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
version 0.18 (05 Feb 2012)
- corrected the handling of pdf bookmarks, as suggested on stackexchange by U. Fischer.
- improved the spacing between sections and subsections by using addvspace instead of vspace.
- corrected the spacing between entries with nested itemize environments (temporary solution working only for single line items).
- added a check in the oldstyle style for an empty 4th argument in the cvdoubleitem definition, to avoid printing a colon without preceding label.
- added a new style on top of classic, casual and oldstyle: banking.
