CTAN update: xint

the daemon cheerfully reports:

> Name of contribution: xint
> Author's name: Jean-François Burnol
> Package version: 1.03
> Location on CTAN: macros/generic/xint/
> Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers
> License type: lppl
> 
> Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------
>    version 1.03 of xint (2013/04/14)
> 
>    The xint bundle has two new components:
>        xintfrac.sty   Expandable operations on fractions
>        xintseries.sty Expandable partial sums with xint package
> 
>    xintfrac.sty extends the macros of xint.sty to apply to
>    fractions of arbitrary sizes (please don't type in numerators
>    or denominators with more than 2147483639 digits, if I may ask).

>    As with xint.sty, all computations are done in a manner
>    compatible with expansion-only context. The computations are
>    always done exactly and when printing a fraction with an
>    asked-for given number of digits, all digits are exact.
> 
>    xintseries.sty provides some basic functionality to compute
>    partial sums of series or power series. The computations may be
>    done exactly or with a truncation at a given number of digits
>    after the decimal point.
