Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Floating point exceptions in OpenGL libraries are now masked. A
normalization used to render tubes was fixed. A Label align(Label,dir)
function was added for aligning label normals. A new
settings.compress=true option controls PDF image compression. A TINYINT(1)
isometry(transform) function was added. Various bugs in the geometry
module were fixed. The transpose function ignores uninitialized
elements. Null fields are treated as undefined values in cvs mode and
in line mode. Uninitialized rendering variables were fixed. A RELEASE
variable was added. Logarithmic graphs of surfaces are supported.
Files are opened without assuming an asy suffix. Support for
Ghostscript 9.53 was implemented. The end argument of Margin functions
is now optional. A function cputime().change.clock that returns the
high-resolution elapsed wall clock time was added. A --disable-curl
option was added. The centering of slides was fixed. Null characters
and null strings are supported in the repl! ace function.
Configuration without readline support was fixed. In binary mode, an
entire file can be read into a string. The getc function now works
properly when reading the NUL character. Reproducible builds are
supported.

package.
Version number: 1.0.0

Summary description: Insert hyperlinked ORCiD logo
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a new package for inserting the logo of ORCiD, which is
hyperlinked to the URL of the researcher whose iD was specified. This
macro is targeted at academics who author papers to journals that include
hyperlinked ORCiD logos in their publications. This will help authors more
closely simulate, in their preprint, the final typeset style of the
journal.
The code for this macro originally came from an answer on TeX.SE
(https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/445583/34063), all I did was put it in a
.sty file, and package it up for CTAN.

U+00FE (thorn), U+0111 (dcroat) and U+014B (eng).
-- Optional ft and tt ligatures added, see feature Ligatures=Required.
-- Variants for ligatures fi ffi fl ffl added, see Alternate=1.
-- (faked) slanted fonts added to match kpfonts T1 version.
2) Math fonts:
-- Corrected mismatch between mitl (U+1d459) and ell (U+2113).

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the
hyperxmp
package.
Version: 5.8 2020-11-18
License: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Embed XMP metadata within a LaTeX document
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
XMP (eXtensible Metadata Platform) is a mechanism proposed by Adobe
for embedding document metadata within the document itself.
The metadata are designed to be easy to extract, even by programs
that are oblivious to the document's file format.
Most of Adobe's applications store XMP metadata when saving files.
Now, with the hyperxmp package, it is trivial for LaTeX document
authors to store XMP metadata in their documents as well.
hyperxmp integrates seamlessly with hyperref and requires virtually
no modifications to documents that already exploit hyperref's mechanisms
for specifying PDF metadata. hyperxmp can embed a wide variety of metadata
as XMP, including the list of authors, document title, contact information
(telephone number, postal address, email address, etc.), copyright statement,
keywords, natural language, and much more. hyperxmp is compatible with
pdflatex, lualatex, xelatex, latex+dvipdfm, and latex+dvips+Distiller.
Version 5.8 includes a new add_byteCount Perl script that postprocesses
a PDF file to specify the true file size in the XMP packet
(property: <prism:byteCount>).
The documentation describes how to configure the latexmk build tool
to invoke add_byteCount automatically.
Thanks to John Collins for both the script and the configuration code.
