I have uploaded memoir161803beta.tar.gz to UK incoming. This is abeta version of the next (final?) release of the memoir class. I don't know where it should go as I think that it must not replace the current memoir collection but be available for those who want to try it out.
i have placed the submission on the latex experimental tree, at
macros/latex/exptl/memoir-beta
when we have the final version, we can erase that location (or redirect it to memoir proper).
This version incorporates all the current patches, and provides afew new facilities, especially an extended range of pt size options. The manual is heavily revised and includes all the material that was in the Addendum, and more. Users should read the README before printing the manual.
I hope to release the real version before I leave the US (soon). I would like to hear of any problems, which can either be emailed to me (herries dot press (at) earthlink dot net) or preferably sent to the comp.text.tex newsgroup. I am unlikely to have time to respond individually but I will collect all responses.
i have installed the package as indicated above, and created an entry in the catalogue. i believe the location is sufficiently different from that of the original package that one hopes it won't be a source of confusion.
users may view the catalogue entry at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/memoir-beta.html or browse the package directory at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/exptl/memoir-beta/
thanks for the upload.
