the daemon is staggering slightly with the weight of updates ahead of the tex live freeze, but it still managed:

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

Name of contribution: fontspec Author's name: Will Robertson Location on CTAN: contrib/latex/fontspec Summary description: Advanced font selection in XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX. License type: lppl

Announcement text given by the package's contributor:

Just when I thought the final release for TeX Live 2010 was done, a couple more issues arose. This time for sure; version v2.0b brings:

* Improved examples in the documentation, with fewer proprietary fonts
* All font examples are included as separate images on CTAN, so the
  manual can be compiled (with pdfLaTeX) by anyone, anywhere
* LuaLaTeX fixes for the StylisticSet and Annotation features
* New OpenType feature `CharacterVariant` now supported
* Minor change: `Ligatures=Historical` is now `Ligatures=Historic`
  for consistency

thanks for the upload; i have installed the package and updated the catalogue repository.

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

the catalogue entry on the web will change, somewhat, overnight.
