Name of contribution: siunitx
Author's name: Joseph Wright
Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/exptl/siunitx
Summary description: A comprehensive (SI) units package
License type: lppl

Announcement text: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
v0.8:
- Table alignment extended to cover exponents
- Units can now be repeated after errors and multiplied numbers
- Negative values can appear in a different colour to positive numbers
- Improvements to emulation of other packages
- Fix for loading-order issue with numprint
- Improved appearance of "astronomy-style" angles

Version 0.8 marks the "interface freeze" for siunitx.  There 
will (hopefully) be no changes to the interface without good reason and 
backward-compatibility.  Moving to an official (v1.0) release depends 
very much on bugs in the current version.  Please report any bugs or 
annoyances, and they will be investigated!
