John H. Lienhard submitted an update to the

mitthesis

package.

Version: 1.06 2023-08-29
License: mit

Summary description: A LaTeX template for MIT theses

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The mitthesis class formats an MIT thesis according to the current
requirements of the MIT Libraries. This class is new in 2023, and
it is a complete replacement for the original mitthesis.cls written
in the 1980s.

With this update, the bulk of the code has been moved to Expl3 from
LaTeX2e. The remaining LaTeX2e code has been streamlined.
Minor changes have been made to the user interface.
No changes have been made to the thesis format or design, apart from
a resizing of the optional Fira Sans font.
The pdf metadata required to be added by the user have been substantially
reduced. Additional support has been added for use outside MIT.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
