by Reinhard Zierke 02 May '03

02 May '03

----- Forwarded message from Harald Harders ----- I have uploaded the file babelbib.tar.gz to ftp.dante.de. It contains a new version of the babelbib system. Please replace all files in CTAN:biblio/bibtex/contrib/babelbib by its contents. License stays LPPL. >From the README: This package enables to generate multilingual bibliographies in cooperation with babel. Two approaches are possible: Each citation may be written in another language, or the whole bibliography can be typeset in a language chosen by the user. The current version supports English, German, and Italian. In addition, the package supports commands to change the typography of the bibliographies. Supported bibliography styles are bababbrv.bst, babalpha.bst, babplain.bst, babunsrt.bst, and babamspl.bst. Please help me to add more languages to babelbib. This release is totally rewritten. It now supports special commands to change the fonts in bibliographys. A version of the AMS BibTeX style amsplain, called babamspl, is included, now. ----- End forwarded message ----- Thanks for the upload. I installed it as suggested replacing the old version in CTAN:biblio/bibtex/contrib/babelbib/ Reinhard Zierke for the CTAN team

CTAN package update: CurVe
by Jim Hefferon 29 Apr '03

29 Apr '03

A package has been updated at tug.ctan.org and should make its way to your favorite local mirror real soon. Thanks for the upload, Jim Hefferon ftpmaint(a)tug.ctan.org =========================================================== The following information was provided by our fellow contributor. Name of contribution: CurVe Author's name: Didier Verna Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/supported/curve (Please also not that we are moving directories on CTAN and this package will soon be located in macros/latex/contrib/curve --JH) Summary description: New release of Curve, version 1.4 License type: lppl Announcement text given by the contribution's author: - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm pleased to announce the release of CurVe version 1.4. New in this release: support for small id photo inclusion, more control on the vertical and horizontal layout of the headers. CurVe is a class package that hopefully will make your life easier when you want to write your CV. It provides you with a set of commands to create rubrics, entries in these rubrics etc. CurVe will then properly format your CV for you (possibly splitting it onto multiple pages, repeating the titles etc), which is usually the most painful part of CV writing. Another nice feature of CurVe is its ability to manage different CV flavors simultaneously. It is in fact often the case that you want to maintain slightly divergent versions of your CV at the same time, in order to emphasize on different aspects of your background. CurVe also comes with support for AUC-TeX. - - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
