CTAN update: mitthesis

[CTAN Announcements]

John H. Lienhard submitted an update to the

                     mitthesis

package.

Summary description:  A LaTeX template for MIT theses

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 The mitthesis class formats an MIT thesis according to the current
 requirements of the MIT Libraries.  This class is new in 2023, and
 it is a complete replacement for the original mitthesis.cls written
 in the 1980s.

 With this update, the bulk of the code has been moved to Expl3 from
 LaTeX2e. The remaining LaTeX2e code has been streamlined.
 Minor changes have been made to the user interface.
 No changes have been made to the thesis format or design, apart from
 a resizing of the optional Fira Sans font.
 The pdf metadata required to be added by the user have been substantially
 reduced.  Additional support has been added for use outside MIT.
