The following information was provided by our fellow contributor:
Name of contribution: mcaption v3.0
Author's name: Stephan Hennig
Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/mcaption/
Summary description: Put captions into the outer document margin.
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package provides a margincap environment that puts
captions into the outer document margin.
This is an incompatible update to the mcaption package!
Changes:
---------------
v3.0 2009/03/13
---------------
New:
* Obey \caption and \label commands inside margincap
(at last!).
* Macro \margincapalign is deprecated (no longer
necessary for tabular declarations).
* New compatibility option `v2.2'.
Incompatible changes:
* Environment margincap has no arguments. A
compatibility option exists, that restores the old
syntax with caption arguments.
* The mcaption package requires package changepage
to be installed (instead of chngpage).
* Complete revision of the vertical alignment
mechanism. Paragraph-breaking might be affected
(hopefully only to the better).
Fixed:
* In one-sided documents chngpage/changepage's
even/odd page detection was subtly broken by the
mcaption package.
