I also wondered about the odd appearance of \Aring (when using my
favorite unit, \Angstrom). The reason is, as far as I have traced it,
that context defaults to the ae fonts. The respective glyphs in the ec
fonts look much better.
I have been absent from ec / type1 issues for some time, so a question
from my part: Are the freely available type1 versions of these fonts
mature enough and included in the major distributions, so they could be
used instead of the ae fonts by default? If so, I think this should be
considered.
