Name of contribution: NCCLATEX bundle

Announcement text given by the package's contributor:

Using non-ASCII symbols in math mode is very limitted in LaTeX (e.g.
cyrillic letters simply disappear when they typesetted in math mode). This
leads to many errors in typesetting LaTeX papers, especially for papers
converted from MS Word. The introduced light version of CP1251 input
encoding, cp1251-light, allows using common cyrillic letters in label
names and solves the problem of typesetting common cyrillic letters in
math mode.
