Announcement text:

Couple of days after 3.08, here is 3.09. One of early
adopters noticed that subsusbsection toc code was broken. In
addition, I also implemented reals support for section title
pages and subsection title pages, in style of part pages.
Also, this package now includes translator and it's
translations, since it was tied to Beamer from the start and
since it's easier to maintain it this way. This will also
(hopefully) increase number of translations we have.
Translator user guide is now merged with Beamer's, and it
was a nontrivial merge; if you note any errors, please report.
One more noteworthy change is that now we have a logo for
Beamer. I took and image available in public domain and
modified it a bit to use Beamer colors.

CTAN Update: beamer version 3.07
On Sun, 11 Mar 2007, Till Tantau wrote submitted an update to the
beamer
package.
The beamer LaTeX class can be used for producing slides. Its
functionality is similar to Prosper but does not need any external
programs and can directly produce a presentation using pdflatex. Beamer
uses pgf for pdf/ps independent graphics. Frames are created using
\frame{...}, and a frame can build multiple slides through a simple
notation for specifying material for each slide within a frame. Beamer
supports bibliographies, appendicies and transitions. Short versions of
title, authors, institute can also be specified as optional parameters. A
\plainframe{} allows a picture, for example, to fill the whole frame.
Support figure and table environments, transparency effects, a
\transduration command, animation commands, a pauses environment. Beamer
also provides compatibility with other packages like prosper.
Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/beamer
License: GPLv2
Annoucement:
After two years, this is the first bugfix release! It fixes some of
the most troublesome bugs:
1) The problem with wrong colors after blocks in dvips mode.
2) The wrong name \pgfuselayout mentioned in the manual.
3) Frame titles of fragile frames can be given inline.
Furthermore, the chaotic license refences have been fixed,
copyrighted pictures have been removed and this release should now be
"perfectly free".
Changes:

CVS:
- LyX layout removed since it is now part of the LyX
development tree.
- Cleaned up documentation.
- Cleaned up license chaos and removed all possibly
copyrighted material.
- Fixed incorrect subsubsections in vertical navigation bars.
- Fixed problem with overlay specifications in amsmath
environments.
- Fixed superfluous \show in beamerthemeshadow.sty
- Fixed color problem in beamer boxes with rounded corners.
- Fixed problem with frametitle syntax in fragile frames.
- Fixed missing frame subtitles in article mode.

CTAN update: beamer version 3.06 and pgf 1.00
On Sun, 23 Oct 2005, Till Tantau submitted updates to the
beamer and pgf
packages.
PGF is a macro package for creating graphics directly in TeX and LaTeX.
Its usage is similar to pstricks and the standard picture environment.
Unlike pstricks, it produces both PostScript and PDF output and works
together with latex, dvips, pdftex, and pdflatex. PGF is used extensively
with beamer for production of presentations.
The beamer LaTeX class can be used for producing slides. Its
functionality is similar to Prosper but does not need any external
programs and can directly produce a presentation using pdflatex. Beamer
uses pgf for pdf/ps independent graphics. Frames are created using
\frame{...}, and a frame can build multiple slides through a simple
notation for specifying material for each slide within a frame. Beamer
supports bibliographies, appendicies and transitions. Short versions of
title, authors, institute can also be specified as optional parameters. A
\plainframe{} allows a picture, for example, to fill the whole frame.
Support figure and table environments, transparency effects, a
\transduration command, animation commands, a pauses environment. Beamer
also provides compatibility with other packages like prosper.
Here are the annoucements for the packages:
-- latex-beamer 3.06:
This release is now the official first version for use with the new pgf 1.00.
This combination is now quite stable, so users are encouraged to switch over
to 3.06.
However, this is not yet a real new version 3.10 since there are still too
many (known) problems. I'll try to work on these during the next months.
Note that you *need* pgf version 1.00 (actually, 0.95 will do, but then you
will *want* 1.00 instead) to use this version of beamer.
Changes since latex-beamer 3.01:
- Fixed bug in drawing of buttons.
- Version for use with pgf version 1.00.
- Added color theme wolverine and presentation theme AnnArbor,
submitted by Madhusudan Singh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
- Added two screen options.
- Added subsubsections (evil!).
- Added \begin{frame}{Title}{Subtitle} syntax.
- \setbeamercovered is now scoped.
- Fixed location of navigation symbols on plain frames.
- Fixed wrong frame number in conjunction with fragile option.
- Fixed compatibility definitions like \beamertemplateballtoc.
- Fixed compatibility definitions for \beamersetleftmargin.
- Fixed wobbling height of frametitle in default theme.
- Fixed problem with serif theme and "onlymath" option.
- Fixed problem with >127 characters and fragile option.
- Fixed problem with activation of Chinese characters
- Fixed problem with spaces in semiverbatim.
-- pgf 1.00:
Compared to the last stable version of pgf, namely version 0.65, this is
almost a new program. The changes are so broad and fundamental that it does
not really make sense to list them all. However, despite all the changes,
this version should be fully compatible with the version 0.65.
Here is an overview of the most important changes since 0.65:
- The documentation is completely new and somewhat expanded.
- There is now a package called TikZ that makes using pgf really easy.
- pgf is no longer a pure latex package, it now also works with plain TeX and
(thereby) ConTeXt.
- pgf now supports not only pdftex and latex+dvips, but also dvipdfm, tex4ht
(where it produces svg output) and vtex.
- pgf is now layered and new backend drivers can be added much more easily.
- The power of pgf has been vastly increased. It can now has a sophisticated
coordinate system management, node management, supports opacity, has a new
arrow management, and more.
If you have been using versions 0.95 or higher, this is just the hopefully
quite bugfree version of the versions sind 0.95.
Note on the installation: Since pgf is no longer a latex package, it should
now be unpacked in the generic part of the texmf tree, that is, as
texmf/tex/generig/pgf. You *may* need to create a link in the latex part of
the texmf tree at texmf/tex/latex/pgf pointing to
/texmf/tex/generic/pgf/latex/pgf. This link is necessary if TeX finds an old
version of pgf instead of the current one.
Changes since pgf 0.65:
- Added vtex support (finally!).
- Added multi part mechanism to nodes.
- Added very simple pgflibraryautomata.
- Changed coordinate shape such that it now never produces a
text label.
- Renamed \pgfshapebox to \pgfnodeparttextbox (made necessary
by the node part mechanism).
- Added transparency to PGF (quite nice...).
- Added foreach option to child path operation (also nice...).
- Fixed problem with \\ in centered text.
- Fixed problem with hyperlinks in nodes.
- Fixed wrong arrows in trees.
- Reorganised directory structure of documentation.
- Added tree mechanism.
- Added snake mechanism.
