+<h3><em>Curriculum Vitae</em> (R&eacute;sum&eacute;)</h3>
+<p/>Andrej Brodnik&rsquo;s class, <i>vita</i>, offers a framework for producing
+a <em>curriculum vitae</em>. The class may be customised both for
+subject (example class option files support both computer scientists
+and singers), and for language (both the options provided are
+available for both English and Slovene). Extensions may be written by
+creating new class option files, or by using macros defined in the
+class to define new entry types, etc.
+<p/>Didier Verna&rsquo;s class, <i>curve</i>, is based on a model in which
+the CV is made of a set of <em>rubrics</em> (each one dealing
+with a major item that you want to discuss, such as &lsquo;education&rsquo;, &lsquo;work
+experience&rsquo;, etc). The class&rsquo;s documentation is supported by a couple
+of example files, and an emacs mode is provided.
+<p/>Xavier Danaux offers a class <i>moderncv</i> which supports
+typesetting modern <em>curricula vitarum</em>, both in a classic and in a
+casual style. It is fairly customizable, allowing you to define your
+own style by changing the colours, the fonts, etc.
+<p/>The European Commission has recommended a format for
+<em>curricula vitarum</em> within Europe, and Nicola Vitacolonna has
+developed a class <i>europecv</i> to produce it. While (by his own
+admission) the class doesn&rsquo;t solve all problems, it seems well-thought
+out and supports all current official EU languages (together with a
+few non-official languages, such as Catalan, Galician and Serbian).
+<p/>The alternative to using a separate class is to impose a package on
+one of the standard classes. An example,
+Axel Reichert&rsquo;s <i>currvita</i> package, has been recommended to the
+FAQ team. Its output certainly looks good.
+<p/>There is also a LaTeX 2.09 package <i>resume</i>, which comes with
+little but advice <em>against</em> trying to use it.
