conTeXt is already present in both fink's tetex and texlive packages.   
The dependency issues with tetex and texlive are very complex, and I  
do not believe we should accept a separate conTeXt package into fink.

The modern datacenter depends on network connectivity to access resources
and provide services. The best practices for maximizing a physical server's
connectivity to a physical network are well understood - see how these
