On Thu, 5 Apr 2007, Wybo Dekker submitted version 0.2 of the
isodoc
package.
The isodoc class can be used for the preparation of letters, invoices,
and, in the future, similar documents. Documents are set up with options,
thus making the class easily adaptable to user's wishes and extensible for
other document types. Victor Eijkhout's NTG brief class, which implements
the NEN1026 standard, was the starting point.

The internet connection to tug.ctan.org, also known as www.ctan.org,
will be down tomorrow for electrical work.
That outage is scheduled to start Friday April 6 at 8:00 Vermont time,
which I think is 1200 Friday 06 April UTC, and last four or five hours.

On Fri, 30 Mar 2007 Axel Sommerfeldt submitted an update to the
caption
package.
The caption package provides many ways to customise the captions in
floating environments like figure and table, and cooperates with many
other packages. Includes rotating captions, sideways captions, continued
captions (for tables or figures that come in several parts). A list of
compatibility notes, for other packages, is provided in the documentation.
The package also provides the caption outside float facility, in the
same way that simpler packages like capt-of do.
The package supersedes caption2.

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a bugfix release of the caption package 3.0:
- KOMA-Script variants of `parskip' and `parindent' re-added, since they
still collide with the actual version of the subfig package (Sigh!)
(See changelog for details.)
