Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
version 1.2g
- Option 'journalnumber' replaces 'journumafteryear'. The
option was enhanced and can now take the values
'standard', 'afteryear' and 'date'. The value 'standard'
is the same as the old journumafteryear=false,
'afteryear' is the same as the old journumafteryear=true.
The new value 'date' assures that the date is printed,
even if the field issue is given (this is not the case in
the standard styles). Additionally, 'journalnumber=date'
prints the number before the date, if the date (at least
year and month) is given, but it prints the number after
the year, if only the year is given (i.e. if the date is
not further specified). See the documentation for
details. The default is 'journalnumber=standard'.
- Improved german-dw.lbx.
- Adjusted the documentation for screen reading. A printer
friendly version can still be compiled from the source.

i've just (belatedly) installed a revised version of rotating, which
uses colour boxes where appropriate. (this bug was reported last year,
but i thought i needed to do other work on the package and delayed
installation. i have now given up on the other stuff.)
i have updated the catalogue repository, a bit (though the changes won't
appear on the web until some time tonight).
users may view the current state of the web catalogue entry (at any time), at:
http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/rotating.html
