Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The confproc package is a LaTeX document-class for building conference proceedings. Version 0.4e enhances the package and fixes several issues: - package: - redefine hebibliography to avoid inserting a phantom item to set the introductory paragraph (thanks to Will Robertson); - redefine frontmatter, mainmatter, ackmatter, ableofcontents, etc, to take into acount layout and formatting issues; - page layout defined with the geometry package (thanks to Will Robertson) - bug correction: have hypersetup evaluated only at the document beginning (then taking into account the user changes in the PDF metadata); - remove formatting from footer and name-like commands: author, title, etc. (thanks to Will Robertson); - use mathptmx package instead of times package, and nth package instead of extsuperscript command (thanks to Will Robertson); - allows to insert 1-page long papers (did not work in v0.3 and previous); - instead of replacing each paper’s last page by the list of its bibliography items, print them on top of the header of the last page; - documentation: changes history re-organized using macro environment - example updated: - to account for those changes (shorter code) - .bib files included (were missing in v0.3)! ----------------------------------------------------------------------
