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


ekdosis v1.3
------------
This release of ekdosis comes with many new features of which the most 
important follow:—
- New global options `keyfloat' and `fitfloat': the latter lets the 
  apparatus grow until a predefined height is reached.  From this point on,
  the apparatus ceases to grow.  Rather, the size of the characters is 
  scaled down to allow for more entries.  If used appropriately, this
  mechanism puts an end to the `oscillating problem' (see sect. 11.1 on 
  page 59) in most of the cases.
- Added support for marks in headers and footers.
- New preamble command \ekdsetup.
- New option lineation=none.
- New command \ekdpb* to force the page break.
- Improved handling of nested \app.  Added `num' and `nonum' optional 
  arguments to \lem and \note.
- New command \teidirect to insert code in the TEI xml output file only.
- Much improved \TeXtoTEIPat.
- New `locus' option in \DeclareWitness.
- Allow strictly consecutive \note commands to share the same `labelb'.
- Improved tests for babel and polyglossia.  Added a `notelang' option to 
  apply in text entries introduced by the \note command a language
  different from the one that is selected in the edition text.

Corrections, improvements and bug fixes:—
- relocate_notes() operated outside <lem> in some instances: fixed.
- Page numbers ahead of entries spanning across pages are no longer 
  printed when `lineation' is set to `document'.
- Citation commands now use <bibl> and <biblScope>.
- Use lpeg to relocate anchors.  Adapted frontier pattern to handle dots, 
  hyphens and underscores in xml:ids.
- TEI xml export: use <msItemStruct> instead of <msItem>.

For future work, please see sect. 13 on p. 75 of the documentation.
