+The CTAN Bibliography
+
+%% This file is provided under the terms of the LPPL v1.3 or
+%% later. Full text see https://ctan.org/license/lppl1.3
+
+The data entries are saved as \texttt{manual}, which can easily be changed by
+any editor via the replace function. If you are still using the old \texttt{bibtex}
+program instead of \texttt{biber}, you have to define your bibliography
+style file (\texttt{.bst}.).
+
+For \texttt{biber/biblatex} there exists an own \texttt{ctan.bbx} file which uses
+all the entry types listed in the following example:
+
+@manual{a0poster,
+ title = {The \texttt{a0poster} package},
+ subtitle = {Support for designing posters on large paper},
+ author = {Gerlinde Kettl and Matthias Weiser},
+ date = {2016-06-24},
+ version = {1.22b},
+ license = {lppl},
+ url = {https://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/a0poster},
+ pkgurl = {https://ctan.org/pkg/a0poster},
+ note = {Provides fonts in sizes of 12pt up to 107pt and also makes sure
+ that in math formulas the symbols appear in the right size. Can
+ also create a PostScript header file for
+ which ensures that the poster will be
+ printed in the right size. Supported sizes are DIN A0, DIN A1,
+ DIN A2 and DIN A3.},
+}
+
+\texttt{ctan.bbx} is based on \texttt{authortitle} which can be changed easily in
+the file.
+
+The file \texttt{ctan.bib} will be updated every day.
