Walter Daems submitted an update to the 

  exsol

package.


Summary description: The package facilitates typesetting exercises and solutions from one LaTeX source to a separate solutions book.
License type: lppl

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

The exsol package provides macros to allow for embedding exercises and solutions 
in the LaTeX source of an instructional text (e.g., a book or a course text) 
while generating the following separate documents:

- your original text that only contains the exercises, and
- a solution book that only contains the solutions to the exercises (a package option exists to also copy the exercises themselves to the solution book).

The former is generated when running LaTeX on your document. This run writes the 
solutions to a secondary file that can be included into a simple document 
harness, such that when running LaTeX on the latter, you can generate a nice 
solution book.

The code of the exsol package was taken almost literally from fancyvrb [http://www.ctan.org/pkg/fancyvrb]. 
Therefore, all credits go to the authors/maintainers of fancyvrb.
