- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm happy to announce a new *major* release of FiXme, a
package for inserting fixme notes in your documents,
version 2.0. Many new features in this release, including
a new layout option (inline), notes counters, a usage
summary at the end of processing, more translations, and
most important, three additional macros for including
non-critical notes (meta comments about the document
actualy) of different importance levels.
FiXme provides you with a way of inserting fixme notes in
your documents. Such notes can appear inline, as marginal
notes, footnotes, index entries, in the log file and as
warnings on stdout. It is also possible to summarize them
in a list. When you switch from draft to final mode, any
remaining fixme note will be logged, but removed from the
document's body. Additionally, critical notes will abort
compilation with an informative message. FiXme also comes
with support for AUC-TeX.

FiXme – Collaborative annotation tool for LaTeX
FiXme is a collaborative annotation tool for LaTeX documents.
Annotating a document here refers to inserting meta-notes, that is,
notes that do not belong to the document itself, but rather
to its development or reviewing process. Such notes may involve
things of different importance levels, ranging from simple
“fix the spelling” flags to critical “this paragraph is a lie”
mentions. Annotations like this should be visible during the development
or reviewing phase, but should normally disappear in the final
version of the document.
FiXme is designed to ease and automate the process of managing
collaborative annotations, by offering a set of predefined note levels
and layouts, the possibility to register multiple authors, to reference
annotations by listing and indexing etc. FiXme is extensible, giving you
the possibility to create new layouts or even complete “themes“, and
also comes with support for AUCTeX.
