[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] Updating Context or Never change a running System?

2013-04-17 Thread Jan Heinen

Hello,

I did my last Context-Project 15 months ago - a small book. 
Now I want to write the next book. Do you suggest to update 
my Context-installation?


I have installed ConTeXt Standalone (Minimal?)

My versions are:

Contextversion: 2011.11.04 14:15
Contextversion -Number: 20004 14:15 MKIV
Textengine LuaTeX
Textengine-Number: 0.70.1

Which are the new versions?
Are there important changes in the new versions? Where can I 
find an actual changelog?


Regards
Janis

no, just make another standalone into a different folder and then try
to port the project into the new one.

What nice new things can I find in the new version?

Or is anywhere an actual changelog/release_note?

depends on how advanced your docs are ... for a typical 'uses 10 ,ost 
popular commands' document an older version is probably quite ok


but, if you update luatex, you also need to update context (and vise versa)

Taco normally made those when a new current showed up but it's a tedious 
job and he's quite busy now.


(the current current is a pre-current that will get frozen when tl 2013 
freezes)

Hello Janis,

The closest you will get to a changelog, at the moment, is the git
mirror of the source:
http://repo.or.cz/w/context.git

That is not so useful if you want to know what new features have
arrived in the past year, but I thought I should mention it anyway.

I think one could also find a reasonable subset of feature
announcements by looking at e-mails to this list with the following
properties
* from:pra...@wxs.nl (that's Hans)
* new in OR next beta OR new beta
* after:2011-11-04
* (possibly: first in thread)

Unluckily, I can't convince my Gmail to search for that --- it ignores
the quotation marks, so I get buried in false positives.

Cheers,
Sietse
