CTAN update: beamer
by CTAN Announcements 12 Jun '10

12 Jun '10

This should within a day be at your local mirror. Jim Hef{}feron Saint Michael's College ............................................................................ The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: LaTeX Beamer class Version number: 3.09 Author's name: Vedran Miletic Summary description: Translator and bugfixes License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Couple of days after 3.08, here is 3.09. One of early adopters noticed that subsusbsection toc code was broken. In addition, I also implemented reals support for section title pages and subsection title pages, in style of part pages. Also, this package now includes translator and it's translations, since it was tied to Beamer from the start and since it's easier to maintain it this way. This will also (hopefully) increase number of translations we have. Translator user guide is now merged with Beamer's, and it was a nontrivial merge; if you note any errors, please report. One more noteworthy change is that now we have a logo for Beamer. I took and image available in public domain and modified it a bit to use Beamer colors. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/ .
