License type: lppl
Announcement text:
2004/01/20 v1.07 * New feature: support for color masking and color separation. * New commands: - \rmultiply to multiply a dimension register by a real number. - \xcolorcmd to pass commands that are to be executed at the end of the package. * Changes: - more consistent color handling: extended colors now always take precedence over standard colors. - several commands improved by using code from the LaTeX kernel. * Documentation: some minor changes. * Example files: additional pstricks examples (file xcolor2.tex).
----- End forwarded message ----- Thanks for the upload. I installed it as suggested replacing the old version in CTAN:macros/latex/contrib/xcolor Reinhard Zierke for the CTAN team

xcolor – Driver-independent color extensions for LaTeX and pdfLaTeX
The package starts from the basic facilities of the color package, and provides easy driver-independent access to several kinds of color tints, shades, tones, and mixes of arbitrary colors. It allows a user to select a document-wide target color model and offers complete tools for conversion between eight color models. Additionally, there is a command for alternating row colors plus repeated non-aligned material (like horizontal lines) in tables. Colors can be mixed like \color{red!30!green!40!blue}.
