New CTAN package: beamersubframe

On Fri, 1 Jul 2011, Mike Kaufmann submitted the

  beamersubframe

package.

Summary description: Reordering frames in the PDF file without reordering the source
License type: lppl

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The Beamer SubFrame package provides a method to reorder frames in the
PDF file without reordering the source. Mainly, it is meant to embed or
append frames with details on some subject.

This is the very first version! It's still considered experimental!
Everything, including the name and the user interface, may change in
the future.

Although it can only be used with the beamer class, it is not a part
of the beamer class.

appear).  We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

CTAN Update: latex-tds


On Sat, 2 Jul 2011, Heiko Oberdiek submitted an update to the 

  latex-tds

package.

License type: lppl

----------------------------------------------------------------------

CTAN's package description:

  This bundle provides a set of zip file modules containing
  TDS (tds)-compliant trees for items of the LaTeX distribution
  (both the base system and required packages), together with
  `user-friendly' documentation (PDF files with navigation support
  using bookmarks and links).

  A further module (knuth) performs the same service for Knuth's
  software distribution (knuth-dist).

Latest changes (see readme.txt):

  2011/07/01
    * PDF generation:
      * Use of LuaTeX instead of pdfTeX for most of the files.
      * Use of package `fontspec' with Latin Modern fonts as
        default in OpenType format (smaller PDF file sizes).
        The post-processing of PDF files is skipped.
      * Various patches and fixes for LuaLaTeX and package `fontspec'.
