tug.ctan.org upload is down for a while
by CTAN Announcements 12 Jul '10

12 Jul '10

The upload facilities at tug.ctan.org will be down for a couple of days. Saint Michael's College hosts the site and is running network testing that may lead to spotty availability. That in turn could make newly-installed materials unavailable to mirrors. Anyway, it should all be back by Fri. Jim

The included package files provide access to these features in LaTeX as explained in the documentation. The fonts themselves are released under the GPL v2 or later, with font exception. The support package is released under the LPPL. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/romandeadf/ .

A multiple fraction bar bug in texpath was fixed. Warning messages and portability issues were addressed. A frame label alignment problem was fixed.
