Changes

[[http://tlcontrib.metatex.org/ | TLContrib]] is a website + repository that hosts contributed packages for TeX Live 2010. The packages on [[http://tlcontrib.metatex.org/ | TLContrib]] are not distributed or updated inside TeX Live proper for one or another of following reasons:

* because it is not free software according to the strict Debian guidelines; * because it is not available on CTAN; * because it is a binary (executable) update; * because it is an intermediate release for testing.

In short, anything TeX-related that can not be on TeX Live but can still legally be distributed over the Internet can have its place on [[http://tlcontrib.metatex.org/ | TLContrib]].

The ultimate goal is to provide a companion to the core TeX Live tlnet distribution in much the same way as Debian's non-free tree is a companion to their normal, 100% free software distribution. The goal is not to replace TeX Live: package and updates that can be part of TeX Live itself should stay (or be added) there. [http://tlcontrib.metatex.org/ | TLContrib]] is simply trying to fill in a gap in the current distribution system.

Quick start: to use [[http://tlcontrib.metatex.org/ | TLContrib]] as a TeX Live repository, point the TeX Live package manager to http://tlcontrib.metatex.org/2010/
