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

    This is a major release of NewComputerModern.

    It adds support for the Devanagari script and languages Hindi(default),
    Sanskrit, Marathi, Nepali.
    The fonts provide Devanagari Regular and Book at 08pt and 10pt and
    Bold at 10pt. Check the documentation on how to use them.

    Devanagari numbers and Unicode encoded letters are provided in the
    Math fonts too for use as variables and auto switch from Arabic numerals
    with the proper Stylistic Set (check the documentation).

    It adds its own matching mathbb (and keeps the AMS mathbb as an option).
    Math also provides two series of Latin calligraphic capitals for
    Mathematics and one for lowercase.

    The full block of diacritics U+0300 to U+036F is supported in all
    fonts with stacking too.

    Several improvements in Bold Sans.

    Completion of the Greek+Coptic block in all fonts (there were a few
    rare characters missing in some fonts).

    This is a major release of NewComputerModern.

    The most notable change is the introduction of a Bold Math font
    which completely covers the Unicode Math blocks and even beyond
    that (with the same coverage as Regular and Book).

    Other improvements:

    NewCM mathbb symbols (in ss03) have been reworked and they now
    match the design of ComputerModern fonts (the AMSbb remain the
    default)

    AMSbb and NewCMbb are now provided in SmallCaps for special
    applications (see the documentation) in ss05

    An additional operator similar to \sum and \int has been added
    to the Math fonts. Namely now it is possible to convolute many
    function in the usual shorthand notation mathematicians use.
    The new operator is called: \convolution

    Added one more radical for smother change from one to another

    Added Currency Symbols font in all text fonts (except Uncials)

    Fixed several typos in Lookup tables thanks to Eric Biedert

    Fixed CapHeight parameter in OS2 tables for some of the fonts
    thanks to Max Kortge

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

    This is yet one more major release for NewComputerModern.
    The main change is the addition of a full featured SansMath font
    providing a complete solution for applications where a Sans font
    is needed such as presentations.

    The SansMath font has newly designed lowercase Latin letters so
    that when used as math variables they indeed look as math variables!
    The mathbb/symbb and mathcal/symcal capitals have been reworked
    to match in style and weight of the Sans fonts.

    Math Kerning has been introduced to ALL math fonts improving
    typesetting especially at the indices of cal/scr capitals.

    ss06 and ss07 can be selected for auto middle beta and
    theta in Greek text.

    The kerning of Greek Oblique block has been greatly improved;
    "theorem" statements now look much better.

    testmath-newcm.tex/pdf has been added to the documentation
    from the AMS bundle to showcase the new SansMath font.

    With this release NewCM has reached a milestone
    covering many languages, supporting ipa, and providing
    four math fonts that can support a scientist from writing an article
    to preparing a presentation of his/her work.
