One day we might have a ConTeXt > MKII book for those who are afraid of swithing to pdftex2. Hmm, we had this discussion in Epen... I think that enough of the high-level interface is stable enough that a thorough ConTeXt book will be useful, particularly after luaTeX/pdfTeX2. I recall a particular someone at Epen volunteering to set up a working committee on this, even to write the book himself if no one volunteers to help soon... :D :D :D As for MKII/pdfTeX1, it makes no sense making a book for a stalled branch; pdfTeX1 will go the way of the original TeX engine. Who today will write a book for those who only want to use the dvi format?
