Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/paresse
Summary description: paresse goes utf8 i.e. is now also usable with [utf8]{inputenc} and LaTeX
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Shortcuts to type the equivalent of ensuremath{alpha} with two letters macros
using the character `section ' (the S of the keypad) made active.
paresse goes utf8
With version 4, it is always possible to use paresse with LuaLaTeX and XeLaTeX
as before. Also, as before, it is usable with LaTeX on 8bit encoded files
loading {inputenc} before paresse. But, now, it is also usable with LaTeX on
utf8 encoded sources loading [utf8]{inputenc}.
Many thanks to Christian Tellechea for his help.

On Mon, 18 Apr 2011 Scott Pakin submitted an update to the
hyperxmp
package.
Summary description: Embed XMP metadata within a LaTeX document.
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
XMP (eXtensible Metadata Platform) is a mechanism proposed
by Adobe for embedding document metadata within the document
itself. The metadata is designed to be easy to extract,
even by programs that are oblivious to the document's file
format. Most of Adobe's applications store XMP metadata
when saving files. Now, with the hyperxmp package, it is
trivial for LaTeX document authors to store XMP metadata in
their documents as well.
hyperxmp integrates seamlessly with hyperref and requires
virtually no modifications to documents that already exploit
hyperref's mechanisms for specifying PDF metadata. The
current version of hyperxmp can embed the following metadata
as XMP: author, title, subject, keywords, copyright, and
license URL. hyperxmp currently embeds XMP only within PDF
documents but is compatible with pdflatex, latex+dvipdfm,
xelatex, and latex+dvips+ps2pdf.
Version 1.2 adds support for a few elements of the Photoshop
schema, support for xelatex, and compatibility with the
ngerman package.

following a discussion on tex stackexchange, i've made a small change to
the moreverb package: it now only allocates a write stream if the
document uses the verbatimwrite environment.
i've now installed the new version on ctan and updated the catalogue
repository.
Users may view the package's catalogue entry at
http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/moreverb.html
or browse the package's directory at

The catalogue entry will change (somewhat) overnight tonight.
