Roadmap for MiKTeX 2.9

by CSchenk16. July 2010 21:47

It is time to sync MiKTeX with recent technology boosts (XeTeX character protrusion, LuaTeX). So here we go. This is the MiKTeX 2.9 roadmap.

August 2010: MiKTeX 2.9 Beta

  • Some upgrades (pdfTeX, XeTeX, TeXworks, MetaPost, BibTeX, ...)
  • For the first time: LuaTeX

October 2010: MiKTEX 2.9 (general availability release)

December 2010: Yap enhancements

  • The DVI previewer (Yap) will be revised to bring back the MiKTeX 2.4 render method

PS: A special thanks to all who have donated to the MiKTeX project. You make it possible!

I was waiting for more than a year for news about MiKTeX 2.9. I love new versions and I love the planned features. Thanks a lot!

What is the status of MikteX for Unix/Linux?

the feature with auto installing packages as needed basis is something that TeXLive lacks and is very usefull.

But since uprgrade to libpng-1.4.* I can't compile Miktex any more....
