On Mon, 15 Mar 2010, Josef Kleber submitted an update to the
installfont
package.
Summary description: A bash script for installing a LaTeX font family
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
With this script you can install a LaTeX font family
(Postscript Type1,
Truetype, Opentype). At least the four basic cuts + (faked)
small caps
+ faked slanted, but no expert fonts. The script will rename
the fonts
automatically (optinal) or will otherwise expect *.afm files
and the
font files (in Postscript Type1 format!) named in the Karl
Berry scheme
(e.g. 5bbr8a.pfb). After running the script, you should have
a working
font installation in your local TeX tree.
License: LPPL
New in v1.3:
- added installfont-tl for TeXLive (thanks to Christoph Bier)
- added support for Truetype (needs ttf2pt1) and Opentype fonts
(needs otftotfm (LCDF Typetools) and pf2afm (Ghostscript))
- added evaluation of command line options
- added an uninstall option
- added support for installation as
mdefault, sfdefault
or tdefault
- Bugfix: automatic renaming failed if installfont was in
working directory
- Bugfix: changed setstretch (setspace) to linespread
(option leading)

On Thu, 11 Mar 2010, Dominik Waßenhoven submitted an update to the
biblatex-dw
package.
Summary description: Humanities styles for biblatex
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
version 1.3 (for biblatex 0.9)
This version of biblatex-dw supports biblatex 0.9. Please
note that you have to update biblatex as well if you would
like to use biblatex-dw 1.3! Users might need to update
their data due to some changes in biblatex, especially
concerned with date specifications. Please follow the hints
for users given in biblatex's RELEASE notes.
Further changes in this release:
- The option 'isrn' and 'issn' were dropped. Their
functionality can be achieved by the biblatex option
'isbn'.
- BUGFIX: When using 'idembibformat=dash', the @inreference
entries had a wrong punctuation inside the title. This is
now fixed.
- Option 'pseudoauthor' changed: if set to true (and the
entry option 'pseudoauthor' is used), the author of this
entry is printed. The new commands ibleftpseudo and
ibrightpseudo are used to enclose the author. These
commands are empty by default. If the global option
'pseudoauthor' is set to 'false', the author of entries
with the entry option 'pseudoauthor' are not printed at
all. The default value for the global option is 'true'
(i.e. the behaviour is the same regardless of the entry
option 'pseudoauthor').
- New command locationdatepunct for the punctuation
between location and year/date. The default is addspace.
- New command locationpublisherpunct for the punctuation
between location and publisher. The default is
addcolonspace.
- New command publisherdatepunct for the punctuation
between publisher and year/date. The default is
addcommaspace.
