Re: [NTG-context] What is the prescribed way to add attachments to a list posting?
Thanks, Mojca. I was looking at the web-interface of the archives. It seems that the attachments *were* including in the mailing list message, but were converted/stripped in the archives. They are not really removed, but it might be that they are not shown in lurker (archive.contextgarden.net) for whatever reason. they are archived but not displayed. For some reason I've turned that off (IIRC). But the archive is moving anyway, so I don't think it is really necessary to change things for just a short period of time.

[NTG-context] What is the prescribed way to add attachments to a list posting?
In my last posting, I had included the source and .pdf output as attachments, but it seems that the source was included in-line and the .pdf was discarded. Is there a prescribed way to include attachments?

Is there a prescribed way to include attachments? Attachments usually survive, but they may not exceed a certain size limit. Usually that is problematic - PDF documents may get very large, even the most simple ones usually exceed size limit (it depends on what engine and what fonts you use). I don't know why text attachment was converted into an inline one (gmail often displays simple text documents inline, but that doesn't mean that they were converted by mailman). Usually that doesn't happen unless a moderator did that or something weird happened :). Many people upload PDFs to their own servers and post a link if PDFs are large. Sometimes you can attach PNG with a screenshot of problematic part. You could also make an attachment in bug reporting software (http://tracker.luatex.org/) if you are reporting a bug.
