Thanks for bringing this topic up again. I'd also be highly interested in this!

> Betreff: [NTG-context] Critical Editions?
>
>
> I just started switching after long years of typesetting with La-/Omega-
> /pdfTeX to Context and was exploring the capabilities of the program for
> typesetting critical editions. So I was wondering whether there is any
> updated information on how to produce critical editions?
>
>
> Details:
> I was able to find the article "Ediciones críticas con ConTeXt" (is this in
> use?)
> as well as a plan of and a remark concerning critTeXt: "As I learned from a
> thread on NTG-context from early 2010 we shouldn't expect a dedicated
> package, but that ConTeXt will eventually incorporate the needed
> functionalities." What is the status of that?

> I also found out that for simple editions context already works. For critical
> editions in my field we need both footnote references based on
> linenumbers (for prose), but also references to verse number, which can be
> entered manually. The main problem for me was to find the command
> \linenote :)
