Announcement text: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
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.

Changes from version 0.3 to 0.4 (Major update):

(1) List of references can now distinguish between two and
more than two items. For example:

    equation (1)
    equations (1) and (4)
    equations (1), (2), and (5)

(2) Option "nokeyprefix" is added to remove all the prefixes
in the \<type>label commands. The user has now the option to
use the standard latex \label command everywhere (especialy
for old documents), for example:

   \label{tab:xxx} and then \tabref{tab:xxx} with refstyle

(3) Languages added: French, Italian and Portuguese, Brazilian


Changes from version 0.4 to 0.5:

(1) Workaround for active characters such as :;? in the
reference argument (french)

(2) Documentation update
