Marco,

this would have been the next version number, but I want to introduce a 
big jump to 1.0.0 and have been waiting for the standard's approval to 
do so. The release is probably in a few weeks, because I still have some 
nice stuff in my work queue.

The 0.2.1 release should be fine for you to use right now (unless you 
are affected by the installation breaking bug #45280).

The package can't be released by simply exporting the mercurial 
repository. Please use “make dist” on your mercurial workspace, COPYING 
will then be generated via TexInfo. COPYING would not be the only 
missing file in your tarball.
