Daniel Flipo submitted an update to the

                babel-french

package.

Version:  3.3a  2017-04-30
License:  lppl1.3

Summary description:  Babel contributed support for French

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

 New release for TL207, still compatible with TL2016.

 The management of punctuation spacing in LuaTeX has changed:
 former \FBcolonskip, \FBthinskip and \FBguillskip have been removed.
 All three engines now rely on the same commands \FBcolonspace,
 \FBthinspace and \FBguillspace.

 Further customisation of the \part{} command is provided via
 three new commands \frenchpartfirst, \frenchpartsecond,
 and \frenchpartnameord.

 An alias \frenchsetup{} for \frenchbsetup{} has been added
 in version 3.3a, it might appear more relevant in the future
 as the language name frenchb should vanish.
