Summary description: Reduce the number of unnecessary float pages

Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------

A new package that extends LaTeX's output routine to produce less (half empty) float pages without getting the floats too far away from their callout. Behavior is customizable but in most cases just loading the package is enough to get noticeable improvements.

This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/fewerfloatpages
