The package is a beta release of changes to mend bugs reported in babel itself. Only the babel core itself is being developed; specific language modules are to be left to their original authors.

This version should not be used for production work, though problem reports are encouraged from those of an experimental frame of mind.

The authors are Javier Bezos and Johannes L. Braams. The package is Copyright © 2012,2013 Javier Bezos and Johannes L. Braams.
