The sixth release of the binb package is now on CRAN. binb regroups four rather nice themes for writing LaTeX Beamer presentations much more easily in (R)Markdown. As a teaser, a quick demo combining all four themes follows; documentation and examples are in the package.

Via two contributed PRs, this releases adds titlepage support via the YAML header for Metropolis, and suppresses nags about the changed natbib default. A little polish on the README and Travis rounds everything off.

Changes in binb version 0.0.6 (2020-06-10)

• Support for YAML option titlegraphic was added in Metropolis (Andras Scraka in #23).

• The README.md file received another badge (Dirk).

• The natbib default value was updated to accomodate rmarkdown (Joseph Stachelek in #26).

• Travis now uses R 4.0.0 and ‘bionic’ (Dirk).
