Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the etoc package. Version number: 1.07l License type: lppl1.2 Summary description: Completely customisable TOCs. Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The previous release added a tocloft compatibility layer which however broke memoir class compatibility (the memoir compatibility testing for that release had been done before modifying the source code for tocloft compatibility...). This is fixed here, as well as the related (but less crippling) issue of the etoc tocvsec2 compatibility layer: nothing special needs to be done under memoir's version of tocvsec2, contrarily to the situation with the original package. Caveat: there still has not been intensive testing of etoc under memoir class, so possibly some other issues may arise at some point. Bug reports will be welcome. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/etoc More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/etoc We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

While it does not duplicate all the features of the official package, it is more user-friendly in several ways. Most notably, Asymptote errors are repackaged as LaTeX errors, making debugging less of a pain. It also has a more robust mechanism for identifying unchanged pictures that need not be recompiled. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/asypictureb More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/asypictureB We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Christian Schneider submitted an update to the ionumbers package. Version number: v0.3.3 License type: gpl Summary description: Restyle numbers in maths mode Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This update fixes a problem with MnSymbol (and potentially other packages changing the font in math mode). Ionumbers assigns macro definitions to certain characters in math mode. Previously, the original mathcodes of these characters were hard-coded into ionumbers and did not match those defined by MnSymbol. For example, '-' in the input turned into '+' in the output, if used with MnSymbol. The update uses the mathcodes that the characters have at the beginning of the document instead. Thanks to Michael Sebastian Hitziger for reporting this problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/ionumbers/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/ionumbers We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Details and trivia ------------------ * The most important change is that we now offer a template that is much simpler than previous versions, because the template is now separated from the documentation. * Another significant change is that we now use the `x.y.z' version scheme rather than `1.4 alpha1' or so, because we realise that our release cycle is really non-deterministic, and the new scheme is more more flexible and suitable for us. * In fact, v1.4 is released as an intermediate version earlier today, but not uploaded because CTAN does not seem to host coexistent versions of the same package ;) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/pkuthss/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/pkuthss We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
