Hello TeX users,

First, a new LaTeX release 2024-06-01 has just been uploaded to CTAN,
and will likely be available via normal updates shortly. Progress in the
tagging project continues, with tabulars and math now having
experimental support. For more info on this and all the other changes,
see LaTeX News #39:

Also, the LaTeX Project has created a sample collection of documents
produced by LaTeX conforming to the new PDF/UA-2 standard:
