i'm vacantly staring at my screen, but the daemon disturbs me with:

>     * Support alternate selections in CharacterVariant (cvxx in OpenType)
>       using new syntax `[CharacterVariant=5:2]`.
>     * Add `fontspec`-compatible `\oldstylenums` and `\liningnums` commands.
>     * New programmer's function `\fontspec_set_fontface:NNnn` (for use when
>       `\zf@basefont` might previously have been queried).
>     * Log file output is slightly tidier.
>     * Some old lingering bugs squashed:
>       - Small caps font selection was broken in some cases.
>         (Thanks Enrico Gregorio.)
>       - Fonts loaded by filename with under-specified shapes threw an error
>         (e.g., asking explicitly for bold but not italic).
>         (Thanks Vafa Khalighi.)
>     * Documentation improvements largely due to Markus Böhning.
>     * Many internal changes, among which:
>       - `xkeyval` package no longer used for option processing;
>         `expl3`'s `l3keys` used instead.
>         This allows `fontspec` to be loaded before `\documentclass`
>         (thanks Heiko Oberdiek for reporting the issue)
>         and fixes a potential conflict with the `preview` package
>         (thanks again Vafa).
>       - Internal names changed; avoid "\zf@basefont", "\zf@family", etc.
>         from now on -- there are public interfaces now to get access to the
>         same information
>       - Update `expl3` support to latest CTAN version.

thanks for the upload; i've installed the new version, and updated the
catalogue repository.

The catalogue entry will change (somewhat) overnight tonight.
