I've uploaded two packages in the pstricks/contrib area on CTAN.  Here
are the copies of announcements

This package is a set of macros based on PSTricks to draw medical
pedigrees according to the recommendations for standardized human
pedigree nomenclature.  The drawing commands place the symbols on a
pspicture canvas.  An interface for making trees is also provided.
The package can be used both with LaTeX and PlainTeX.  A separate
Perl program for generating TeX files from spreadsheets is
provided in the sibling directory on CTAN.

I have never understood this liking for war.  It panders to instincts
already catered for within the scope of any respectable domestic establishment.
