Re: [NTG-context] other markup to ConTeXt
This was exactly what I was wondering last night: How hard would it be to just write the converter into LuaTeX? Does LuaTeX's position as a moving target affect this at all? As you suggest Phillip, it might not be so difficult. It certainly sounds like a worthwhile project. Seeming as how there is an obvious spread of interest, perhaps we can start working on something collaboratively.

Re: [NTG-context] other markup to ConTeXt
There is a lua markdown converter: http://github.com/jgm/lunamark It can output html and latex, I don't think it would be hard to make it output context and integrate it in some way.

I was planning on using Python docutils with changing its LaTeX converter for ConTeXt. But of course direct LuaTeX parsing of other markup would be really nice. Markdown, ReST, Creole - I don't really care, as far as there's a parser in Python, so that I can integrate it in my Django-based Web CMS. None of their specs is really precise AFAIR, but I guess ConTeXt's standard markup commands are flexible enough. Greetlings from Lake Constance!

Re: [NTG-context] other markup to ConTeXt (was: simplefonts or Typecripts)
This is very similar to a project in which I am planning to engage in the near future. Output to both HTML and PDF utilizing a simple markup seems to be a killer feature that at least some of us are looking for. Cross-media publishing, however, is never painless. It's like a Holy Grail. Pandoc makes me want to either learn Haskell or implement my own markup with a focus towards multiple output formats and typesetting in general (most markups seem to be focused on developer workflows). Anyway, a fruitful space for ConTeXt, thanks to its strive for configurability.
