Re: Out-of-Date LaTeX in Woody

Adding grist to the mill, Thomas Esser may be planning on
releasing a new texmf-beta tarball:

   I am just about to bring my texmf tree up-to-date and to
   release a new texmf-beta tarball as soon as this is done.

(From a message on the teTeX mailing list, dated 29 Aug 2001:
<http://www.mail-archive.com/tetex%40informatik.uni-hannover.de/msg01156.html>.)

If that happens, we may be off the hook -- we can provide a
current LaTeX, and still be true to the upstream teTeX sources.
I'm guessing/hoping that the reason it hasn't happened yet is that
Thomas was waiting for the new LaTeX to come out, and it has
(although I still haven't seen an official announcement -- thanks,
Atsuhito, for bringing it to my attention).

 Behind the counter a boy with a shaven head stared vacantly into space, 
 a dozen spikes of microsoft protruding from the socket behind his ear.
