Summary description: Resource management for the LuaTeX macro programmer
License type: pd
Announcement text:
2013/05/04 v0.6 all - move away from the module() function (deprecated in Lua 5.2) attr - hack to make luatexbase and luatex.sty compatible for attribute allocation (same thing should be done for catcodetables) - adding whatsit nodes allocation functions (see doc) modutils - adding functions to check the availability and version of a module - fixing small error in module date requirement - update documentation to reflect the move from module() loader - do not output included file paths when called by texlua mcb - passing most of the term output to the log
This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/luatex/generic/luatexbase . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/luatexbase (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org . Please join a users group; see http://www.tug.org/usergroups.html .
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf

luatexbase – Basic resource management for LuaTeX code
The LaTeX kernel (LaTeX2ε 2015/10/01 onward) builds in support for LuaTeX functionality, also available as ltluatex.tex for users of plain TeX and those with older LaTeX kernel implementations. This support is based on ideas taken from the original luatexbase package, but there are interface differences.
This ‘stub’ package provides a compatibility layer to allow existing packages to upgrade smoothly to the new support structure.
