Summary description: Font TeXification utility
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is mostly a housekeeping release, to establish what is the current version of
fontinst (after a few years of slight confusion). It is the result of a review of the fontinst
development history, and includes some items that had been lost along the way.
The primary changes relative to the previous release 1.929 lie in documentation and
examples rather than code, but a few code changes exist. Of greatest practical
importance is probably that fontinst.sty no longer has an external dependency on
trig.sty; the necessary macros have instead been inlined.

Summary description: This package brings table notes to longtable
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I a book design that use threeparttable for adding
tablenotes to regular tables, it looks odd to use footnotes
to add notes to a longtable.
This package extends threeparttable bringing it to longtable
(although with a different interface). If asked for it can
also make tablenotes referable.
See the doc for more information and examples.

Name of contribution: biblatex-dw
Version number: 1.2k
Author's name: Dominik Wassenhoven
Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/exptl/biblatex-contrib/biblatex-dw/
Summary description: Humanities styles for biblatex
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
version 1.2k
This version brings a lot new stuff. Please have a look into the
file 'CHANGES' for details. The most important things are:
- Adjustments to biblatex version 0.8e. Note that from this
version on biblatex 0.8e is required, so you have to update
biblatex as well if you would like to use biblatex-dw 1.3!
- BUGFIX: The option 'ibidpage' did not work with
footnote-dw. This is now fixed.
- Changed entry type @inreference
Up to now, this entry type was an alias for
@incollection. From now on, this entry type can be used
for articles in encyclopedias or dictionaries.
- New Options
- 'isrn' and 'pagetotal'
With these options you can decide whether you want to
have printed the corresponding fields or not.
- 'edstringincitations'
If set to 'true', the editor and translator strings are
shown in the citations (not only in the full citations).
- 'series=standard|afteryear'
If set to 'afteryear', the series is printed after the
year. This affects the entry types book, inbook,
collection, incollection, proceedings, inproceedings and
manual.
- New Commands 'seriespunct', 'sernumstring', and 'herenamepunct'
- In German localization, the strings 'withcommentator',
'withannotator' and 'withintroduction' are shortened as
follows:
-> withcommentator: komm. v.
-> withannotator: erläut. v.
-> withintroduction: eingel. v.
The long versions stay the same as in standard biblatex.
