Summary description: Simplified Spanish support for Babel.
Announcement text:
Long overdue revision. * Dropped Spanish math support. * Moved ASCII shorthands into language attributes/modifiers. * Fixed minor bugs and typos. Remark by the CTAN team: This package has been relocated from ctan:/language/spanish/babel/contrib/spanglish/ to ctan:/macros/latex/contrib/babel-contrib/spanglish/ It will probably be renamed to "babel-spanglish" in the future.
This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/babel-contrib/spanglish/ (this location will _not_ be affected by any renaming of the package) More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/spanglish (this will become http://www.ctan.org/pkg/babel-spanglish after the name change). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org . Please join a users group; see http://www.tug.org/usergroups.html .
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Petra Rübe-Pugliese

babel-spanglish – Simplified Spanish support for Babel
The package provides very simplified (or ultra sloppy) support for Spanish in Babel, mostly as a fallback in case spanish.ldf fails for some reason. The package provides basic support for Spanish hyphenation, captions, date, frenchspacing, indentfirst, symbolic footnotes, enumerations, small caps roman numerals, and a handful of shorthands and Spanish mathematical operators. No options or attributes for customization are provided.
According to the author, the purpose of this package is nowadays better served by the babel package with option spanish.mexico.
