Summary description: Draw electrical networks with TikZ
Announcement text:
Another significant change for Circuitikz’s internals: all the text anchors of the components are now stable, meaning they are meaningful after the component has been drawn. That was the case only for part of the components. It *shouldn't* affect anything for standard usage, but according to the Ti*k*Z manual, this is “the way”. Additionally, new label positions for transistors, and a much better alphabetical index in the manual. - Stabilize all the text anchors - Fix text anchors for blocks `oscillator` and `gridnode` - Add `component text=up` or `...down` for transistor labels - Documentation fixes for text anchors - Better index entries (use *seealso*, hyperlink in every entry). Thanks to David Carlisle for the hint.

CircuiTikZ – Draw electrical networks with TikZ
The package provides a set of macros for naturally typesetting electrical and (somewhat less naturally, perhaps) electronic networks.
It is designed as a tool that is easy to use, with a lean syntax, native to LaTeX, and directly supporting PDF output format. It has therefore been based on the very impressive PGF/TikZ package.
