Hallo everyone!

Keeping to our normal non-hasty schedules, the production release for 
2005/12/01 is now available on CTAN (after it got somewhat stale in a 
lenghtly beta testing).

As usual, information regarding release details can be found in

  ltnews17.tex (info about the release and related matter)
  changes.txt  (some technical change info in reverse chronological order)

Happy LaTeXing
