Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
The package arev provides virtual fonts and LaTeX packages for using Arev 
Sans.  Arev Sans is a derivative of Bitstream Vera Sans created by 
Tavmjong Bah by adding support for Greek and Cyrillic characters. Bah 
also added a few variant letters that are more appropriate for mathematics. 
The primary purpose for using Arev Sans in LaTeX is presentations, 
particularly when using a computer projector.  Arev Sans is quite readable 
for presentations, with large x-height, "open letters," wide spacing, and 
thick stems. The style is very similar to the SliTeX font lcmss, but heavier.
