CTAN new package marginfix

This should be at your local mirror. Jim Hef{}feron Saint Michael's College .......................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: marginfix Version number: 0.9 Author's name: Stephen Hicks Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/marginfix Summary description: Patches LaTeX's marginpar routines to prevent overflowing and misalignment License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- As advertised at TUG 2010 (more or less). Authors using LaTeX to typeset books with significant margin material often run into the problem of long notes running off the bottom of the page. A typical workaround is to insert vshift commands by hand, but this is a tedious process that is invalidated when pagination changes. Another workaround is memoir's sidebar function, but this can be unsatisfying for short textual notes, and standard marginpars cannot be mixed with sidebars. This package implements a solution to make marginpars just work by keeping a list of floating inserts and arranging them intelligently in the output routine. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/marginfix .

CTAN update: UK TeX FAQ v3.20
by CTAN Announcements 18 Aug '10

18 Aug '10

i have installed a new version of the uk tex faq on ctan, and updated the version presented by http://www.tex.ac.uk/faq existing advertised faq links should continue to work. (note that there are no guarantees for links that use the long-abandoned question number form.) the major change in this version of the faq is that the package links (from the bottom of faq answer pages) now use mirror.ctan.org, rather than using www.tex.ac.uk exclusively. other changes are listed in the file help/uk-tex-faq/CHANGES-3.20 on any ctan node. Users may view the package's catalogue entry at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/uk-tex-faq.html or browse the package's directory at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/uk-tex-faq/ The catalogue entry will change (somewhat) overnight tonight.

Re: cam.ctan.org upload: xfrac
by CTAN Announcements 16 Aug '10

16 Aug '10

a pre-tester of tex live 2010 noticed that it was holding an older version of xfrac than was last announced. after some investigation, the problem was identified, and the daemon was asked to say: > The following information was provided by the package's contributor. > > Name of contribution: xfrac > Author's name: Joseph Wright > Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/mh > Summary description: Split-level fractions in LaTeX2e > License type: lppl > > Announcement text given by the package's contributor: > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > [This upload restores v0.3, which I uploaded last year and then > accidentally got overwritten by other mh changes. I'll sort out the > SVN version this time too!] > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- thanks for the upload; i've installed this consolidated version and ensure the catalogue is up to date. > Users may view the package catalogue entry at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/xfrac.html > or they may browse the package directory at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/mh note that the .tds.zip file for the mh bundle was not updated, and has therefore been withdrawn, temporarily.
