Scott Pakin submitted an update to the
filecontents
package.
Version number: 1.4
License type: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Extended filecontents and filecontents*
environments
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
LaTeX2e's filecontents and filecontents* environments enable a LaTeX
source file to generate external files as it's run through latex.
However, there are two limitations of these environments: They refuse
to overwrite existing files; and, they can be used only before the
documentclass declaration. The filecontents package removes these
limitations, making it possible to overwrite existing files and to use
filecontents/filecontents* anywhere.
Version 1.4 of filecontents updates the definitions of tab and form
feed for compatibility with the 2018-04-01 LaTeX release. Thanks to
David Carlisle for the code update.

luavlna
package.
Version: 0.1b 2018-05-31
License: lppl1.3
Summary description: Prevent line breaks after single letter words, units, or adademic titles
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 0.1:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The purpose of this new package is to prevent line breaks after nonsyllabic
prepositions and single letter conjuctions. This behavior is required
by typographic norms in some languages such as Czech or Polish. Luavlna
can detect languages used in the text and insert spaces only in parts of
the document where languages that require this feature were used.
It supports both plain LuaTeX and LuaLaTeX.
Version 0.1a:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Added luavlna- prefix to all Lua modules in order to prevent possible
naming clashes with other modules.
Version 0.1b:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is a bug fix release; there was a missing test in the Lua code,
which could result in a compilation error.

texdate
package.
Version number: 1.0
License type: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Date printing, formatting, and manipulation in TeX
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
TeX and LaTeX provide few facilities for dates by default, though many
packages have filled this gap. texdate fills it, as well, with a pure
TeX-primitive implementation.
It can print dates, advance them by numbers of days, weeks, or months,
determine the weekday automatically (with an algorithm cribbed from the
dayofweek.tex file written by Martin Minow), and print them in (mostly)
arbitrary format. It can also print calendars (monthly and yearly)
automatically, and can be easily localized for non-English languages.
