thanks for the upload; i've installed the new version, and updated the
catalogue repository.
The updated package should by now have reached all CTAN mirrors.

interval – Format mathematical intervals, ensuring proper spacing
When typing an open interval as $]a,b[$, a closing
bracket is being used in place of an opening fence and vice versa.
This leads to the wrong spacing in, say,
$]-a,b[$ or $A\in]a,b[=B$. The package attempts to solve
this using:
\interval{a}{b} -> [a,b]
\interval[open]{a}{b} -> ]a,b[
\interval[open left]{a}{b} -> ]a,b]
The package also supports fence scaling and ensures that the enclosing fences will end up having the proper closing and opening types. TeX maths does not do this job properly.
The package depends on pgfkeys.
