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,
latex+dvips+ps2pdf, latex+dvipdfm, xelatex, and lualatex.
Version 5.1 is a bug-fix release.
Thanks to Robert Schlicht, Robin Schwab, and Ulrike Fischer
for their respective bug reports.

media4svg
package.
Version: 0.1 2020-04-09
License: lppl
Summary description: Multimedia inclusion for the dvisvgm backend
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package implements an interface for embedding video and audio
files in SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) output.
SVG with embedded media is very portable, as it is supported by all
modern Web browsers across a variety of operating systems and
platforms, including portable devices.
All DVI producing TeX engines can be used.
The dvisvgm utility, which is part of all major TeX distributions,
converts the intermediate DVI to SVG. By default, media files are
embedded into the SVG output to make self-sufficient SVG files.
For a usage example and instructions on how to interact with
embedded media, look at
