Srikanth Mohankumar submitted an update to the
monoref
package.
Version: 1.4
License: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Single-pass cross-references, page totals, TOC and citations for LuaLaTeX
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.4 adds single-run numbered citations: \cite against a hand-written thebibliography (or an existing BibTeX .bbl) resolves in the same single LuaLaTeX run, including forward citations, multi-key lists and the optional note; natbib/cite/biblatex are detected and left untouched. The load order of monoref and hyperref no longer matters, and the flush phase now warns when a resolved value is wider than its reserved slot.

Sikai Yang submitted the
impe-framework
package.
Version: 1.0.1
License: mit
Summary description: A XeLaTeX framework for building documents from reusable components
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tired of bloated, repetitive preambles? IMPE offers a simpler, more modular way
to build XeLaTeX documents.
Instead of wiring layouts, fonts, and optional features together by hand in
every document, IMPE brings them behind a small set of common interfaces and
ready-to-use document classes. Simple documents can stay simple, while more
specialized typesetting—including multilingual and script-specific work—can be
added when needed.
This is the first CTAN release of IMPE.

Summary description: Classic LaTeX look and feel in different grades of blackness
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This release only improves behavior for a feature that is
not officially supported by the package, namely handling of
Type 1 *text* fonts, hence mostly relevant for pdfLaTeX:
Some characters like curly braces were mapped to ungraded
characters from different fonts; this has now been improved,
search for "OMS" in cmgraded.sty for the gory details.

Version: 1.6.0

Summary description: TikZ-native shapes and anchors for classical physics
diagrams
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tikzphysics 1.6.0 supports spring both as a named node and as a two-point path
with shared coil settings. All native fluid vessels and mechanics blocks and
circles now provide documented integer percentage-anchor families. Cylinder
liquid endpoints, pressure-face centres, and U-tube surface placement are
corrected. Debug markers draw above fills, nearby numbers use leader lines, and
reference cards clear the geometry. Updated manual, direction tables, regression
tests, rendered galleries, and the single-file Overleaf bundle generator are
included.
