Hi Norbert, thanks for this upload, and just a few questions/suggestions to get it right from the start: On Saturday 14 January 2017 at 06:38:58 +0100 CTAN Portal Service (no-reply@ctan.org) wrote:

License: other-free We can now put in "pd" _and_ "gpl3". Would that be okay? Type: new Description: Font maps and configuration tools for Japanese/Chinese/Korean fonts with (u)ptex Announcement: The package 'jfontmaps' has been superseeded by this new package 'ptex-fontsmaps' and now provides font maps and setup tools for Japanese, Korean, Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese. s/and now provides/which now provides/ ?

Since the last release of jfontmaps several new font families have been added. Note: Dear CTAN Team,

I am not sure where this package should be put. I has to be used with the "Japanese" TeX engines ptex or uptex, but can (and is) nowadays also used for other CJK languages.

I found ctan:/fonts/zhmetrics-uptex/ which seems (to me) to be something similar. So what about /fonts/ptex-fontmaps/ ?

It also superseeds "jfontmaps", so I guess best is deleting (?) or moving to obsolete of the old package.

As we rarely ever completely delete stuff, we will shove it to /obsolete/.

This new package should also have Japanese TeX Development Community <issue@texjp.org> as Author/Maintainer, and I am one of the uploaders.

Okay. Supposing that you are yourself a member of that community and its issue@texjp.org mailing list, no separate upload permission for you will be needed: Just submit giving "issue@texjp.org" as the email address. Please tell me what you think of these suggestions, and then I will go ahead with the installation. Best wishes Petra -- Please send messages to ctan@ctan.org in English only.
