Announcement text: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The package supports typesetting documents whose counters
are represented in base twelve, also called “dozenal”. It
includes a macro by David Kastrup for converting positive
whole numbers to dozenal from decimal (base ten)
representation.  The package also also includes a few other
macros and redefines all the standard counters to produce
dozenal output.  Bugs in the original redefinition of these
standards counters have been resolved.

Fonts, in Roman, italic, slanted, and boldface versions,
provide ten and eleven (the Pitman characters preferred by
the Dozenal Society of Great Britain).  The fonts were
designed to blend well with the Computer Modern fonts.
