Hi Thomas,
On the surface, this looks reasonable to me :) Just commenting on some technicalities with the patch itself: - In ORG-NEWS it would be good to wrap the content over multiple lines instead of having a single 270 char line :) - You seem to have an anomalous change to the ob-python :return entry - I don't think your patch subject follows the convention for Org, it should be: "main file/feature: overall change summary" so, something like "ox-latex: allow for arbitrary float environments" rather than "LaTeX export: arbitrary float environments" Thanks for the patch :) Timothy
