We are happy to announce polymake 2.13, which already appeared in April. The

* new application "fulton" for normal toric varieties
* quadratic field extensions, e.g., to represent the Platonic solids exactly
* updated and modularized iterface to libnormaliz
* new interface to ppl (Parma Polyhedra Library)
* improved computation of convex hulls up to symmetry (via interface to
sympol)
* TikZ output

polymake 2.13 also comes as a bundle for MacOS 10.8 and 10.9.

Happy polymaking! On behalf of the entire polymake team,
