[tex-live] updates for TeX Live 2008

[Karl Berry]

We are nearing the end of the release cycle for TeX Live 2008.
No drop-dead date yet, but we're getting close.

So, if anyone is contemplating package updates that they'd like to see
on the DVD, please get them to CTAN as soon as possible.

At least this is less critical than it may have been in previous years,
since we can provide updates after the release that users can easily get
from the Internet, using the new dynamic package system that is the
principal new feature this year.

By the way, if anyone wants to help test before the DVD's get burned,
see http://tug.org/texlive/acquire.html.

Thanks,
Karl
