Hence, the commands provided are not intended for use at the document -level nor for use in describing design layouts in document class files. - -This API provides the foundation on which the LaTeX3 kernel and other advanced -extensions are built. Special care has been taken so that they can be used -within a LaTeX2e context as regular packages. - -While `l3kernel` is still experimental, the bundle is now regarded as broadly -stable. The syntax conventions and functions provided are now ready for wider -use. There may still be changes to some functions, but these will be minor when -compared to the scope of `l3kernel`. - -Programmers making use of `l3kernel` are *strongly* encouraged to subscribe to -the LaTeX-L mailing list (see below): announcements concerning the deprecation -or modification of functions are made on the list. - -Requirements ------------- - -The `l3kernel` bundle requires the e-TeX extensions and the functionality -of the `\pdfstrcmp` primitive. As a result, the bundle will only work -with the following engines: - - - pdfTeX v1.30 or later - - XeTeX v0.9994 or later - - LuaTeX v0.40 or later - -pdfTeX v1.30 was released in 2005, and so any recent TeX distribution -will support `l3kernel`. Both XeTeX and LuaTeX have developed more -actively over the past few years, and for this reason only recent -releases of these engines are supported. - -Discussion ----------- - -Discussion concerning the approach, suggestions for improvements, -changes, additions, _etc._ should be addressed to the list -[LaTeX-L](http://news.gmane.org/group/gmane.comp.tex.latex.latex3). - -You can subscribe to this list by sending mail to - - listserv@urz.uni-heidelberg.de - -with the body containing - - subscribe LATEX-L <Your-First-Name> <Your-Second-Name> - -Bugs ----- - -The issue tracker for LaTeX3 bugs is currently located at - - https://github.com/latex3/svn-mirror/issues - -Please report specific issues with LaTeX3 code there. More general -discussion should be directed to the LaTeX-L lists. - -The LaTeX3 Project ------------------- - -Development of LaTeX3 is carried out by -[The LaTeX3 Project](http://www.latex-project.org/latex3.html). Currently, -the team members are - - * Johannes Braams - * David Carlisle - * Robin Fairbairns - * Morten Høgholm - * Bruno Le Floch - * Thomas Lotze - * Frank Mittelbach - * Will Robertson - * Chris Rowley - * Rainer Schöpf - * Joseph Wright - -Former members of The LaTeX3 Project team were - - * Michael Downes - * Denys Duchier - * Alan Jeffrey - * Martin Schröder - -The development team can be contacted -by e-mail: <latex-team@latex-project.org>; for general LaTeX3 discussion -the [LaTeX-L list](http://news.gmane.org/group/gmane.comp.tex.latex.latex3) -should be used. - ------ - -Copyright (C) 1998-2012 The LaTeX3 Project -All rights reserved |
