Hi,

I'm happy to announce that I've just released ptxdist-2017.12.0.

We have quite a few changes this time in areas that are often neglected.
The autoconf templates have been improved and modernised, a lot of broken
URLs got fixed and the license information for several packages was
improved.
The documentation was improved as well. With this release the new
www.ptxdist.org website is finally online. It contains the latest version
of the documentation.
Other than that, we have the usual mix of new packages, version bumps and
bugfixes.

Thanks to all contributors and - as always - the shortlog below.

Enjoy,
Michael Olbrich
