thanks for the upload; i've installed the files and updated the
catalogue repository.

memoir – Typeset fiction, non-fiction and mathematical books
The memoir class is for typesetting poetry, fiction, non-fiction,
and mathematical works.
Permissible document ‘base’ font sizes range from
9 to 60pt. There is a range of page-styles and well over a dozen
chapter-styles to choose from, as well as methods for specifying
your own layouts and designs. The class also provides the
functionality of over thirty of the more popular packages, thus
simplifying document sources.
Users who wish to use the hyperref
package, in a document written with the memoir class, should also
use the memhfixc package (part of
this bundle). Note, however, that any current version of hyperref
actually loads the package automatically if it detects that it is
running under memoir.
