the daemon again stirred at an unseemly early hour:

The following information was provided by the package's contributor.

Name of contribution: catoptions Author's name: Ahmed Musa Package version: 0.2.7 Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/catoptions/ Summary description: Secure catcodes and process options. License type: lppl

Announcement text given by the package's contributor:

Introduced the hooks BeforeProcessOptions and AfterProcessOptions. The first may be used to defer code to just before XProcessOptions and the latter is useful for, eg, signalling the need to load a package after XProcessOptions. Some other macros have been introduced.

thanks for the upload; i've installed the new version, and updated the catalogue repository.

Users may view the package catalogue entry at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/catoptions.html or they may browse the package directory at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/catoptions/

The catalogue entry will change (somewhat) overnight tonight.
