Hello all,
I am pleased to announce that the new ConTeXt release from Hans Hagen
can be downloaded as of now from the Pragma ADE website or one of its
mirrors.

http://context.aanhet.net/context/current/cont-tmf.zip
http://mirror.contextgarden.net/context/current/cont-tmf.zip
If you have not updated your Latin Modern fonts in the past
month, then you will need to fetch the latest redistribution
of the LM fonts as well:

The current release has version 2005.11.24. As usual, there is a
page with more detailed release notes available on the Wiki,
see: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Context_2005.11.24
New features compared to the 2005.11.16 version:
* As of this version, ConTeXt has a new zip archive: cont-fnt.zip.
This zip will contain font support files. Currently included
are texfont-generated metric and map files for these font families
(with their typescript names in braces):
- Adobe Utopia (utopia)
- Bitstream Charter (charter)
- Antykwa Poltawskiego (antykwa-poltawskiego)
- URW Bookman (bookman)
- URW Nimbus Mono (courier)
- URW Nimbus Sans (helvetica)
- URW Century Schoolbook (schoolbook)
- URW Palladio (palatino)
- URW Nimbus Roman No9 (times)
- URW Chancery (chancery)
* \txt is a new command to be used like \item, \head and \sym
inside itemgroups (e.g. '\startitemize ... \stopitemize')
* texmfstart can be used to generate the stub commands like
'texfont' now
Bugs fixed compared to the 2005.11.16 version:
* the new texexec (in ruby) has gained some backward compatibility
switches, like pdfarrange.
* The incorrect LMSans-Italic font mapping has been fixed
* The command \usetypescript[adobekb][ec] works properly now
Happy TeXing,
Taco Hoekwater
