Name of contribution: biblatex-dw
Version number: 1.2m
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 1.2m
- BUGFIX: Changed the default of citerevsdnamedelim which
used to be a slash. Now it is empty, because otherwise
it produced two slashes in some circumstances.
- BUGFIX: In footnote-dw with 'xref=true', the reference to
the first entry did not work if the first citation of a
parent was cited via a child. This is now fixed.
- BUGFIX: In footnote-dw the punctuation of @collection
entries was wrong when using a prenote in conjunction
with 'useeditor=false' or when there was no editor. This
is now fixed.
- The biblatex option 'singletitle' can now be used both
with authortitle-dw and footnote-dw. Using this option, a
work's title is only printed if there is not more than
one work by the author or editor.
- New entry option 'pseudoauthor'. If set to true, the
author is put in brackets. This is useful for e.g.
editions of works whose authors are not named, but are
known. See the documentation for details. The entry
option does only have effect if the global option
'pseudoauthor' is set to 'true'. The default value is
'false'.

Summary description: coordinate transformation styles for 3d plotting in TikZ
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The tikz-3dplot package provides straightforward ways to
define three-dimensional coordinate frames through which to
plot in TikZ. The user can specify the orientation of the
main coordinate frame, and use standard TikZ commands and
coordinates to render their tikzfigure. A secondary
coordinate frame is provided to allow rotations and
translations with respect to the main coordinate frame. In
addition, The 3dplot package can also handle plotting
user-specified functions in spherical polar coordinates,
where both the radius and fill color can be expressed as
parametric functions of polar angles.
