I upload on ftp.tex.ac.uk an update (V 0.08) of the msg package for LaTeX.

The msg package is a LaTeX package designed to localize any document class or package. Very usefull for end-users which could obtain messages in their own prefered language. It is really easy to use by class/package writers. File names and syntax are still under consideration; this is the main reason why it is still a beta version which can be improved. Volunteers are welcome to test it, report, and even localize the messages file in their own language. Documentation is provided in... English (-like).

It is localized itself in French, Englisk, Norsk and now German.

The upload on ftp.tex.ac.uk is: msg.tar.gz Ctan directory: macros/latex/contrib/msg

V 0.08 mods: added German messages file; added input encoding facility (msgencoding); test file stronger; documentation changed.

good to see the contributions taking off. i've installed the files as requested -- thanks for the upload.
