New CTAN package: yax

[CTAN Announcements]

the daemon's struggling to keep up:

> At first sight, YaX is just a key-system (and at second sight
> too). However, YaX rather organizes attributes in parameters, and the
> latter can be executed, so that YaX is halfway between key management
> and macro definition (and actually aims at being a user's interface).

> Values to attributes can be retrieved and tested in various ways, with
> full expandability ensured as much as possible.

> Finally, YaX's syntax is a quite peculiar (as few braces as possible),

> It is based on texapi and thus requires e-TeX.
