Announcement text given by the package's contributor: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The update fixes a problem with xkeyval and adds Norwegian definitions.

------------

The refstyle provides a consistent way of producing references throughout 
a project. Enough flexibility is provided to make local changes to a single 
reference. The user can configure his or own setup.

It has a direct interface to VARIOREF and namedref's from the NAMEDREF 
package can easily be incorporated (if needed). For large projects such 
as a series of books or a multi volume thesis, written as freestanding 
documents, a facility is provided to interface to the XR package for 
external document references.

The REFSTYLE package is BABEL compliant in that all language definitions 
are added to the \extras<langauge> token list, enabling local and global 
language changes through the BABEL language changing commands. Afrikaans, 
Danish, English, German, Norwegian and Swedish definitions are provided --- 
any other contributions will be appreciated.
