New CTAN package: Nath

A new package has been installed on tug.ctan.org and should
make its way through the mirroring process in the next few
days.

Thanks for the material,
Jim Hefferon
ftpmaint@...

==================================================

The following information was provided by our fellow contributor.

Name of contribution: Nath
Author's name: Michal Marvan 
Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/supported/nath
Summary description: Natural math notation
License type: gpl

Announcement text given by the contribution's author:
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nath is a LaTeX (both 2e and 2.09) style to separate presentation and 
content in mathematical typography. The style delivers a particular 
context-dependent presentation on the basis of a rather coarse 
context-independent notation. Although essentially backward compatible 
with LaTeX, Nath aims at producing traditional math typography.

CTAN submission -- dk-bib

----- Forwarded message from Arne Jørgensen -----
I have uploaded 5 files to /incoming/dk-bib/ at ftp.dante.de.

I suggest that the files be installed in
/biblio/bibtex/contrib/dk-bib/ (like norbib, swebib, germbib).

I guess the license is DFSG (BibTeX is DSFG according to the
Catalogue).

>From the README:

     Dk-bib is a translation of the fours standard BibTeX style files
     (abbrv, alpha, plain and unsrt) into Danish.

     The files have been extended with ISBN and ISSN fields.

     Actually these files where translated from the Norwegian
     translation (by Dag Langmyhr) into Danish. Dag also made the
     extension for ISBN and ISSN.

Regards,

        /arne
