Announcement text given by the package's contributor:

New option 'minion' provides an alternative to MinionPro+MnSymbol, offering distinct math italic v, nu, plus scalability. Option 'libertine' has been improved substantially, thanks to feedback from users.

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

the font set is being recommended a lot -- good to see something really useful getting the recognition it deserves!

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

The catalogue entry will change (somewhat) on the web, by tomorrow morning (Cambridge time).
