the daemon has been banging at the door again. three times, would you
believe?!:

> - Revised behaviour of clists with respect to spaces.
> Spaces are now trimmed from clist entries when adding to
> stored clists or when mapping to inline clists. Braces
> are retained in all cases. This leads to the deprecation
> of \clist_trim_spaces:N, and moves \clist_trim_spaces:n
> to an 'internal' function.
> - Improve detail in documentation on expandablity of
> functions, focussing on the difference between "f"- and
> "x"-type expansion.
> - Documentation hyperlinks and appearance improved
> - Various documentation fixes and extensions
> - Box rotations and (affine) scalings added as experimental
> functions to l3box
> - Higher-level scaling added to l3coffins/xcoffins.
> - Better space treatment in hard-wrapping messages for
> l3msg module.
thanks for the uploads; i have installed the new versions and updated
the catalogue repository for the 3 ctan bundles.

The catalogue entries will change (somewhat) overnight tonight.

l3experimental – Experimental LaTeX3 concepts
The l3experimental packages are a collection of experimental implementations for aspects of the LaTeX3 kernel, dealing with higher-level ideas such as the Designer Interface. Some of them work as stand alone packages, providing new functionality, and can be used on top of LaTeX2ε with no changes to the existing kernel.
The present release includes:
- l3benchmark for measuring the time taken by TeX to run certain code;
- l3draw, a code-level interface for constructing drawings;
- l3graphics, an interfaces for the inclusion of graphics files;
- l3opacity, support for opacity in PDF output;
- l3str, support for string manipulation;
- xcoffins, which allows the alignment of boxes using a series of ‘handle’ positions, supplementing the simple TeX reference point;
- xgalley, which controls boxes receiving text for typesetting.
