Summary description: TikZ-based page-geometry diagnostic tool
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am pleased to announce the initial release of jiffy, a modern, TikZ-based page-layout diagnostic tool for LaTeX.
The jiffy package provides a highly robust, properly scaled map of a document's page geometry, serving as a mathematically accurate alternative to the classic layout package.
Key features include:
Dynamic staggering of metric labels to prevent visual collisions.
Active, automated diagnostics that warn you if text blocks or headers extend off the page.
Native multi-language support (English, Vietnamese, Spanish, German, French, and Dutch).
I hope the LaTeX community finds it useful!

inspirehep-latex fills in references from InspireHEP. Hand it an Inspire ID or a BibTeX key, and it writes the whole entry: authors or collaboration, title, journal, arXiv number, and a citation count. Author-level figures and citations-per-year plots come from the same place. It is aimed at CVs and publication lists, where references go stale and formatting drifts. \inspirecite is \cite by Inspire ID to easily build bibliographies automatically without manual .bib file creation. LPPL 1.3c, on CTAN and at github.com/lawrenceleejr/inspirehep-latex.

- Removed some dependencies (xstring and ifthen) by TeX primitives.
- Removed some unnecessary dependencies (scalefnt and etoolbox).

Now, compilation with traditional TeX engines (dvips, pdfTeX
and so on) is faster.

package.

Summary description: 2D and 3D TeX-Aware Vector Graphics Language
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
String bracket indexing via operator[] was added.
A high-performance sphere approximation based on Bezier triangles
was implemented for the native renderer and ported to AsyGL.
A bitmap preview is generated for V3D PDF output so it displays
correctly in non-interactive viewers.
IBL environment names are now output in the V3D header and
IBL fixes were made for Vulkan and AsyGL.
A stack overflow with -render=0 was fixed.
The Vulkan export now uses tiling with a dynamic viewport and scissor.
Rendering issues with pixel() were fixed.
Triangle group rendering and a vertex shader bug in the no-lighting
path were fixed in the AsyGL library.
Threaded renderer crashes on empty scenes and a division by zero
were fixed.
Surfaces are no longer interpolated as periodic unless they really
repeat, and the parametric surface() constructor in graph3 enforces
exact endpoint periodicity for periodic splinetypes.
A bug in the monotonic splinetype was fixed.
The asyinclude function in the slide module now restores
currentlight, currentpen, and currentprojection.
Documentation and build issues were addressed.
