The MetaPost team is happy to announce a new release of MetaPost:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
MetaPost 1.1000
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The sources and a win32 package can be downloaded immediately from
http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/metapost/
This release will also be available from CTAN soon, and it will be
included in the next TeXLive. The source package should compile normally
on all systems that are capable of compiling a modern web2c-based TeX
distribution.
The win32 package is intended for texlive or a similar web2c-based
installation, and has been tested only with TeXLive 2008. These
executables will *not* work for miktex, sorry.
Of course, we welcome any comments (either good or bad) that you may
have. Simply replying to this message is fine, but see the bottom of
the message for a more formal way to report bugs and feature requests.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What is new in version 1.100:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
* This release is the first version based on MPlib, the Cweb
conversion / reimplementation of MetaPost.
The one but big user-visible change is that the btex ... etex
label conversion is now handled internally instead of via
the external "mpware" programs. These programs are therefore
no longer distributed.
* There is a new manual, mplibapi.pdf, that describes the internal
interface to MPlib for developers.
* The file 'mpintro.pdf' is no longer distributed because the
introduction mnaual is obsolete and has been that way for some
time. A new tutorial is being worked on and will be included
in future releases.
* The distribution now includes Dan Luecking's mpsproof.tex.
