LATEX3—The long-term future of LATEX

LATEX2e is the consolidation step in a comprehensive reimplementation of the LATEX system. The next major release of LATEX will be LATEX3, which will include a radical overhaul of the document designers' and package writers' interface to LATEX. LATEX3 is a long-term research project but, until it is completed, the project team are committed to the active maintenance of LATEX2e. Thus the experience gained from the production and maintenance of LATEX2e will be a major influence on the design of LATEX3. If you would like to support the project then you are welcome to send donations to the LATEX3 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 LATEX and developing LATEX3. The fund is administered by The TEX Users Group and by various local user groups. Information about making donations and joining these groups is available from:
