Nonavailability of services next Tuesday (2018-01-16)
Hi, Deutsch kommt unten. >From 2018-01-16 21:00 CET (that's next Tuesday evening in Europe) to 2018-01-17 09:00 CET (that's Wednesday morning in Europe) DANTE's server comedy will be rebooted several times. This will lead to interruption and maybe non-availability of several services (Web-Sites for CTAN/LaTeX/DANTE, CTAN, mailing lists, etc.) in that time span. It's extremely unlikely that the services won't come up automatically afterwards. Nevertheless, if that'll be the case, it might be noon until I'll find the time to care for it. And now the same in German: Zwischen dem 16.01. 21:00 Uhr (d.i. nächster Dienstag abend) und dem 17.01. 09:00 Uhr (d.i. nächster Mittwoch vormittag) wird der DANTE-Server mehrfach gebootet. Deshalb werden die Services (Web-Server, CTAN, Mailing-Listen, Email, etc.) in dieser Zeit immer wieder mal nicht verfügbar sein. Sollte beim Hochfahren was schief gehen, kann es auch bis Mittwoch mittag dauern, bis alle Services wieder laufen. Das ist aber extrem unwahrscheinlich.

CTAN Update: LaTeX Kernel
The LaTeX Team submitted an update to the LaTeX Kernel consisting of the following packages: latex-base latex-doc cyrillic graphics and tools . Version: 2015-01-01 License: lppl1.3 Announcement text: -- LaTeX2e Release 2015/01/01 == This release of the LaTeX kernel and associated core tools features a number of improvements. A short summary is given below: full details of this release are given in the latest edition of LaTeX2e News (Issue 22). New approach to kernel modifications This release features a new method for incorporating changes into the kernel, balancing the need to provide stability with a requirement to fix issues and address changes taking place in the LaTeX landscape. The new `latexrelease` package mechanism means that fixes are now added directly to the kernel, with the possibly for the user to deactivate them \RequirePackage[2014/05/01]{latexrelease} This mechanism is also available to package authors, who should consult the news for more details. To facilitate ease-of-use of this new approach, the release date for the kernel has been set to a suitable memorable value. Extended allocation routine and additional float storage The register allocation system has been modified to recognise the existence of e-TeX, XeTeX and LuaTeX and make more registers available _via_ `\newcount`, _etc._, without the user needing to load the `etex package. With e-TeX available (the case for all TeX system releases for some years) a new method is made available to extend the pool used for float storage. This can be activated using the new `\extrafloats` command, which requires an argument to specify how many additional float slots to provide. Unicode engine support -- The engines XeTeX and LuaTeX both natively work with Unicode input and have some (subtle) functionality differences from pdfTeX. This has led to the additional of a range of patches being applied in the process of building the LaTeX2e format with these engines. In this release, the kernel sources are updated such that these patches should no longer be required. Most notably, the new file `unicode-letters.def` now provides a full set of Unicode-based assignments for `\catcode`, `\uccode` and so on. This means that with with Unicode engines the assumed font encoding is Unicode rather than `T1`. TeX system builders have already been appraised of these changes and suggested `.ini` files have been circulated by the team. To aid in the use of this work as widely as possible, `unicode-letters.def` is designed to be usable with formats other than LaTeX2e and act as a drop-in replacement for `unicode-letters.tex` for both XeTeX and LuaTeX. Building for release The team have moved to a new script system for creating releases, [l3build](http://ctan.org/pkg/l3build). For users, the two key benefits of this move are that we now provide hyperlinked PDF documentation and TDS-style zip files for the entire release. -- These packages are located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/base/ http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/doc/ http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/required/cyrillic/ http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/required/graphics/ http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/required/tools/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/latex-base http://www.ctan.org/pkg/latex-doc http://www.ctan.org/pkg/cyrillic http://www.ctan.org/pkg/graphics http://www.ctan.org/pkg/tools We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Long Silence of CTAN-Ann
Faithful readers of the CTAN-Ann messages may have noticed the sudden disruption of the service about two and a half weeks ago. This was not for lack of noteworthy submissions, nor had the CTAN team gone on a collective holiday or on strike. What had in fact befallen us was the -- gradual -- loss of our second "main host" at Cambridge. As a matter of fact we had been suspecting for some time that this host was running more or less unattended, but on Thu March 12 it definitely ceased to pick up the packages that had been newly installed or updated on the server in Germany. In consequence, all the mirrors (http://dante.ctan.org/mirmon/) that had up to then obtained their new material via tex.ac.uk went out of sync. Still hoping that things might arrange themselves by themselves within a few days, we did not take any immediate action except trying -- in vain -- to reach somebody in charge at Cambridge. We also stopped sending out CTAN-Ann messages, so that people should not be tempted to go looking for new packages on stale mirrors, and tried to contact mirror admins, asking them to switch from tex.ac.uk to the German server. As one can see on http://dante.ctan.org/mirmon/, these messages still seem not to have reached all the persons concerned, although the situation has improved a little. Luckily, TeX Live was not affected by this problem, as they are fetching their packages from the server in Germany. We have now finally given up hope that the Cambridge server will ever re-enter into reliable service again. We have therefore taken the necessary measures to keep up the service on our own. In particular, we will post in the course of the day the 40 messages kept back during the past weeks and then resume CTAN-Announcements as usual. Thanks for your patience!
