Romano Giannetti submitted the
xkcdcolors
package.
Version number: 1.0
License type: lppl
Summary description: xkcd names of colors
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
In the year 2010, Randall Munroe posted a really fun and nice article on
the iconic web of xkcd. He did a very curious experiment: showing
colors to a lot of people and asking to name each one.
Afterward, he processed the data and sorted the names for each color by
popularity --- that means, how many people gave the same name to the
same color (no guidance here! Read the post linked above for details).
He obtained a nice list of around 950 color names. It's not at all
surprising that a lot of people forged CloudyBlue, but some color is
really surprising, like for example BabyPoopGreen or DullPink...
Now you can use them in LaTeX!

asymptote
package.
Version number: 2.59
License type: lgpl3
Summary description: 2D and 3D TeX-Aware Vector Graphics Language
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
OpenGL memory allocation and transparency bugs introduced in version 2.54
were fixed. Rendering efficiency was improved. In view of limited GPU
resources, only the required material uniforms are passed to each shader.
The WebGL vertex and fragment shaders have been moved to the asygl
library. Multiple embedded images now share a single WebGL context and
shaders, to work around browser limitations. A bug in 3D arrows was fixed.
Unavailable material attributes are now ignored. Miscellaneous Python
support files were ported to Python3. The obsolete maxvertices setting was
removed.
