L^ATEX3---The long-term future of L^ATEX

L^ATEX2_e<#26#><#26#> is the consolidation step in a comprehensive reimplementation of the L^ATEX<#27#><#27#> system. The next major release of L^ATEX<#28#><#28#> will be L^ATEX3, which will include a radical overhaul of the document designers' and package writers' interface to L^ATEX. L^ATEX3 is a long-term research project but, until it is completed, the project team are committed to the active maintenance of L^ATEX2_e<#29#><#29#>. Thus the experience gained from the production and maintenance of L^ATEX2_e<#30#><#30#> will be a major influence on the design of L^ATEX3. If you would like to support the project then you are welcome to send donations to the L^ATEX3 Project Fund; this has been set up to help the research team by financing various expenses associated with this voluntary work of maintaining the current L^ATEX<#31#><#31#> and developing L^ATEX3. The fund is administered by The TEX<#32#><#32#> Users Group and by various local user groups. Information about making donations and joining these groups is available from:
