On Thu, 20 Jan 2011 Alain Matthes submitted three new packages to CTAN:
tkz-base
tkz-euclide
tkz-fct
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The tkz-base package is the base of a set of packages, designed to give math teachers
(and students) easy access at the programmation of drawings with TikZ.
The tkz-euclide package is a set of files, designed to give math teachers (and students)
easy access at the programmation of euclidean geometry with TikZ.
The tkz-fct package is designed to give math teachers (and students) easy access at the
programmation of graphs of functions with TikZ and gnuplot.
All three packages come with a zip archive containing examples of the
documentation. The name of an example is built with a section number and a
subsection number. I give also a file tkzpreamble.ltx to compile easily the
files. There is also a Makefile to compile all the examples at the same time.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
These packages are located at
http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/tkz/
. More information is at

Update summary:
This minor update to ifplatform corrects its behaviour under LuaTeX,
in which it no longer relies on -shell-escape to detect the platform.
Basic package information, as sent by the contributor.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Location: /macros/latex/contrib/ifplatform
Authors: Will Robertson; Johannes Große
License: lppl
Caption: Conditionals to test which platform is being used.
Description: This package uses the (La)TeX extension '-shell-escape' to
establish whether the document is being processed on a Windows or on a
Unix-like system (Mac OS X, Linux, etc.), or on Cygwin (Unix
environment over a windows system).
Booleans provided are:
*'ifwindows',
*'iflinux',
*'ifmacosx' and
*'ifcygwin'.
The package also preserves the output of 'uname' on a Unix-like
system, which may be used to distinguish between various classes of
Unix systems.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/pkg/ifplatform
(this may take a day to sync). Our archive service happens in
cooperation with the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Name of contribution: canoniclayout.dtx
Version number: 0.2

Summary description: a small extension to the memoir class for a page layout
based on circles
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Canoniclayout is a small extension to the memoir document
class that allows to design a canonic layout based of the
great circle inscribed within the page and tangent to the
horizontal sides of the text block rectangle. The margins
reflect the trimmed page shape ratio, therefore the page
block principal diagonal coincides with the corresponding
page diagonal; this layout is especially good for ISO shapes
but can be used with many other traditional book page shapes.
