    David Kempe submitted an update to the

    color-edits

    package.

    Version: 2.0 2026-07-05
    License: lppl1.3

    Summary description: Colorful edits for multiple authors of a shared document

    Announcement text: ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    color-edits is a macro package to facilitate joint editing of a
    document (e.g., research paper) by multiple authors, annotating
    changes, comments, deletions, etc. with author-specific colors.

    Version 2.0 adds the following functionality:
    - "Undoing" edits (i.e., not having them visible in compiled output),
    either globally or for specific authors.
    - New added macros for deletions that avoid comments in the margins.
    - A package option that makes the previous deletion macros also
    not show comments in the margins.

    Bug fixes include:
    - fixing minor spacing issues with the suppress option/name.
    - fixing formatting issues when combining colorful macros with
    wrapfig and similar environments.
    - color spill issues when footnotes extended across multiple pages.
