Users may view the package's catalogue entry at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/glossaries.html or browse the package's directory at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/glossaries/ The catalogue entry will change (somewhat) by tomorrow morning.

i've installed the new version, and updated the catalogue. i've also

the package itself is already on its journey to mirror sites around the
world. the catalogue entry will be updated overnight (i.e., pretty
soon, here in cambridge, but different times at the other two main sites).
