As of now, I know nearly nothing about ConTeXt, so I would not understand most of what is going on ntg-context. First, I will try to understand as much as possible about ConTeXt from past to present (i.e. historically, after having worked through a lot of Knuth's original stuff, and having read quite some papers), and from bottom to top (from ((Plain) Knuth) TeX and Lua through LuaMetaTeX to ConTeXt). In the past I tried to do similar things the other way around, but always found it quite unsatisfactory rather quickly. This time, I just take the (very) long way. So, for now, I will hit mostly stuff that is not relevant to (most) users, but (hopefully) relevant to developers. For now, I will proceed to post to this list, but I will reconsider the decision when I reached substantial parts of the top (ConTeXt user facing stuff). _______________________________________________ dev-context mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/dev-context
