thanks for the upload; i've installed the new version, and updated the
catalogue repository.
note that it has taken more than a day to install this package, for
various technical reasons.
> Users may view the package catalogue entry at
> http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/stellenbosch.html
> or they may browse the package directory at

The catalogue entry will change (somewhat) by tomorrow morning.
