Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
The update fixes a problem with xkeyval and adds Norwegian definitions.
The refstyle provides a consistent way of producing references throughout a project. Enough flexibility is provided to make local changes to a single reference. The user can configure his or own setup. It has a direct interface to VARIOREF and namedref's from the NAMEDREF package can easily be incorporated (if needed). For large projects such as a series of books or a multi volume thesis, written as freestanding documents, a facility is provided to interface to the XR package for external document references. The REFSTYLE package is BABEL compliant in that all language definitions are added to the \extras<langauge> token list, enabling local and global language changes through the BABEL language changing commands. Afrikaans, Danish, English, German, Norwegian and Swedish definitions are provided --- any other contributions will be appreciated.

The package offers a direct interface to varioref (for use, for example, in large projects such as a series of books, or a multivolume thesis written as a series of documents), and name references from the nameref package may be incorporated with ease. For large projects such as a series of books or a multi volume thesis, written as freestanding documents, a facility is provided to interface to the xr package for external document references.
