It was taken from tetex (now texlive) package, with patching to add pointer to Thai macro file. Since patching files from other packages are prohibited, the former maintainer had to divert it to the patched version. Now that texlive has shipped it in a separate directory, it can now co-exist. So, it's just patched and installed as-is. What I need to do is keep it synchronized with texlive. > Please fix the following minor issues in the next version: > > No need for the final .0 in the standards-version. No problem. I just wonder if there is a common convention for this.

I have applied all in CVS unreleased snapshot (with s/tetex/texlive/ as well). Regards, -- Theppitak Karoonboonyanan http://linux.thai.net/~thep/
