%
% This file provides title and abstract prepared on separate pages.
%
% Title hooks:
%
% \NCC@titlebegin   typed out at the beginning of title (0.5\vfill default)
% \NCC@titlecomment typed out right after the title (empty default)
% \NCC@titleend     typed out at the end of title (\vfill default)
%
% We do not delete title specific commands because the \maketitle
% command can be used for preparing other special pages also.
