Richard Gill encouraged me to install on CTAN a copy of his and J C
Loredo's prodint font. I have now done so.
from the catalogue entry i have just written:
Product integrals are to products, as integrals are to sums. They
have been around for more than a hundred years, they have not
become part of the standard toolbox, possibly because no-one
invented the right mathematical symbol for them. The
authors remedied that situation by proposing the symbol and
providing this font.

http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/prodint.html
or browse the package's directory at

The catalogue entry will appear for the first time when my processing
runs overnight tonight.

At the author's request, the package
pzccal
has been moved to the obsolete area.
Summary description: Zapf Chancery calligraphic math alphabet (obsoleted)
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The urwchancal package (developed independently and published less
than a month after pzcal.sty) provides not only a style file but also
virtual fonts solving problems with accents and spacing. Like
`pzcal`, it provides both lowercase and capital Latin math script
letters. It is highly recommended to use ``urwchancal.sty`` instead of
``pzcal.sty``.
