Summary description: BibTeX styles to meet State Standards (GOSTs) of Russia
License type: lppl

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
nGOST is a bundle of BibTeX styles designed to meet State Standards (GOST)
on information, librarianship and publishing issued by The Russian Federation
and Interstate Committee of former USSR States.

It may be distributed and/or modified under the conditions of the LaTeX
Project Public License, either version 1.3 of this license or (at your
option) any later version. The latest version of this license is in
   http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt
and version 1.3 or later is part of all distributions of LaTeX
 version 2005/12/01 or later.

GOST comprises 16 BibTeX styles to format bibliography in English, Russian 
and Ukrainian according to GOST 7.0.5-2008 and GOST 7.1-2003. Both 8-bit 
and Unicode (UTF-8) versions of each BibTeX style, in each case offering 
a choice of sorted and unsorted. Further, 2 more styles, |gost780| and 
|gost780s| styles (not conforming to effective standards) are retained 
for backwards compatibility.

All BibTeX styles are derived from same master file |gost.dtx| by applying 
different set of options as shown in the table below.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

|Gost2008| style is recommended for most applications. It corresponds to the
currently effective Standard 7.0.5-2008. Librarians should use the style
|gost2003| instead of |gost2008| to compile a library catalog to meet the
Standard 7.1-2003. Use of other styles is explained in |gost.pdf|.

3. Support for |natbib| package.

5. All modern styles are now compiled with the |eprint| option.


What's new in version 1.1 (2012.01.21)}
