Hello all, The Team have just sent a snap-shot of expl3 plus the xbase part of the xpackages to CTAN. As detailed in the release text, we hope to establish a semi-regular process of sending snap-shots to CTAN, including a TDS-ready ZIP. This should help more people to use the ongoing LaTeX3 code without needing to grab it from the SVN. We also expect that this will mean that both MiKTeX and TeX Live 2009 will be able to offer updates for these packages to the wider LaTeX community. -- Joseph Wright
