Scott Pakin submitted an update to the
mf2pt1
package.
Version: 2.6 2020-11-27

Summary description: Convert stylized Metafont to PostScript Type 1
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
mf2pt1 facilitates producing PostScript Type 1 fonts from a Metafont
source file. mf2pt1's advantage over tools such as TeXtrace and mftrace
is that it does not rely on bitmap tracing and therefore can produce
higher-quality Type 1 fonts than trace-based tools.
The catch is that mf2pt1 imposes a number of restrictions on the
Metafont input so it is not, as the name may imply, an automatic
converter of arbitrary Metafont fonts to Type 1 format.
Starting with version 2.6, mf2pt1 no longer automatically generates
a unique ID for the font. Unique IDs frustrate reproducible builds
of fonts; mf2pt1 generated such IDs randomly, implying that there was
no guarantee of uniqueness; and Adobe has declared that unique IDs
are no longer necessary
(see, e.g., https://fontforge.org/docs/techref/UniqueID.html).
In addition, a large number of external links in the mf2pt1
documentation have been updated to point to current locations.

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Change Log:
Modified for enabling structured affiliation coding. Authors can now
code their department and organization, address-line, city, postcode
and country in separate tags so that during typesetting stages these
will be properly converted to their equivalent XML tags.
The order of these tags can also be changed. For example, if the postcode
should come before city, simply place the postcode before the city code.
