CTAN update: unicode-math

Will Robertson submitted an update to the unicode-math package. Version number: 0.8 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Unicode mathematics support for XeTeX and LuaTeX. Announcement text:
- v0.8 (2015/07/29) **Breaking changes in this update!** * `\mathrm` (`\mathup`), `\mathit`, `\mathbf`, `\mathsf`, and `\mathtt` revert to their traditional LaTeX meanings; they are set up to match their equivalent text fonts unless specifically set using `\setmathrm` and friends from `fontspec` or the new `\setmathfontface` in `unicode-math`. These commands should be used for *multi*-letter identifiers. * New "symbol" commands have been added, `\symrm` (`\symup`), `symit`, ..., to replace the behaviour of the old commands. These should be used for *single*-letter identifiers. See the package documentation for more detail on these and related commands. * Package options `mathit=sym`, `mathbf=sym`, etc., reverse the changes above to revert to pre-v0.8 behaviour for `\mathXYZ`. Regardless of package option, `\symXYZ` always maps to symbols and `\mathtextXYZ` is provided for the traditional `\mathXYZ` font switch. * New command `\setoperatorfont` to set the font used for commands such as `\sin` and `\cos`. Usage: `\setoperatorfont\mathbf` or any command defined with `\setmathfontface`. * Traditional LaTeX `\DeclareMathAlphabet` now works again for legacy font-loading packages. * Commands defined to "force" Greek letters with `\upbeta` and `\itbeta`, etc. * Assorted bug fixes and minor changes.

unicode-math – Unicode mathematics support for and Lua

This package provides a comprehensive implementation of unicode maths for XeLaTeX and Lua. Unicode maths requires an OpenType mathematics font, of which there are now a number available via CTAN.

While backwards compatibility is strived for, there are some differences between the legacy mathematical definitions in and amsmath, and the Unicode mathematics definitions. Care should be taken when transitioning from a legacy workflow to a Unicode-based one.
