 # List of locale templates
 
+`Babel` provides currently more than 300 `ini` files for about 250 lamguages, which are listed in the manual. In addition, a set of about 500 template files, with a minimal content, are available in this respository.
+
 Here is the list of languages with a minimal `ini` + `tex` template. A few directories contain several `ini` files: for the ‘likely’ script as provided by the Unicode CLDR, and for other scripts. An example is Mundari: `unr` with the Bengali script, and `unr-Deva` with Devanagari.
 
 You can use them to define a new locale just by filling (and fixing if necessary) the empty fields of the required locale, taking some existing one as a model. Feel free to ask for help, and to make feature requests if your language needs specific layout, typographical or cultural conventions.

+# What's new in babel 3.91
+
+**Draft**
+
+## Transform for Hebrew transliteration
+
+Hebrew [and Yiddish, pending] defines a transliteration based on on the
+system devised by Christian Justen for `cjhebrew`. As with some other
+transliterations, it has been chosen because it’s TeX-friendy, ASCII
+and consistent. It departs, however, in a couple of points, which don’t
+belong to the transliteration proper:
+* Final letters are not handled, and therefore they must be entered
+  explicitly. This conversion should be a general tool, as a separate
+  transform (forthcoming).
+* The furtive patah is not shifted. I think that should be done by the
+  font (as, in fact, cjhebrew does).
+  
+## Fixes
+
+* `alignat` and `alignat*` were missing in the list of
+  `amsmath`environments patched for they to work in RTL mode (#208).
+* The package option `layout=extras` was severely broken (#246).
+* English and Arabic document breaks when using paracol (#241).
