Name of contribution: OCGtools package
Version number: 0.8
Author's name: Robert Marik
Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/ocgtools
Summary description: New version, includes some feature requests
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This new version of OCGtools package includes some feature
requests from users. The main change is, that the colors can
be set individually for each layer and the position of text
layers which do not span across the whole page is controlled
via pdfsavepos command and thus should work automatically
for any page layout now (not restricted to beamer, web and
pdfscreen). Improved cooperation with new version of
fancytooltips package which comes soon. Dedicated to my
26-hours old son :).
As usual, the development version is on
http://bitbucket.org/robert.marik/ocgtools and stable
version on CTAN.

esk
package to CTAN.
Summary description: The ESK package allows to encapsulate Sketch files in LaTeX sources.
License type: gpl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The ESK package allows to encapsulate Sketch files in LaTeX sources.
This is very useful for keeping illustrations in sync with
the text. It also frees the user from inventing descriptive
names for new files that fit into the confines of file
system conventions. Sketch is a 3D scene description
language by Eugene K. Ressler and can generate TikZ and
PSTricks code. ESK behaves similar to EMP which encapsulates
Metapost files and is in fact originated in it.
