I have a good meter of books about Latex. But Latex is 'congenitally'
unable to do what I want to obtain.
Within 6 months, with the Seroul book the Context Manual the help of
this list, I made more and better than in 10 years of Latex.
With Latex you must accept to do what Latex wants to be done. With
Context (and even with the older Tex), you are free (not free in an
denglish sense ('gratuit', 'kostenfrei'), but 'libre' or 'frei').
Context seems like a secret that a small club is
trying to keep. It's not even clear from the manuals that
development is ongoing, much less that there is some advantage
in using it.
So, will there ever be a manual to MK IV? In how many years?
I think that the usersd need that the '[...,...,...]' should be replaced or
referenced by
lists of parameters and we need a wiki-glossary of the params.
So we need a wiki to which users can access. I tried to access t the
contextgarden, but my access was forbidden.
So it is true that Context is much more better than the way its access
is managed.

Hi, this is a strong (but fair, I believe) criticism. I guess that we all know that the main problem with ConTeXt is documentation; my feelings are similar, and although I started using ConTeXt using the user manual and asking on the list - and that helped a lot - having a good user manual would be great. I have to disagree, though, with the clear, abundant documentation of the LaTeX world. This is far from true: the docs for LaTeX are spread over numerous package documentations, not-so-well written books and terribly written beginners' books (the LaTeX book on wikibooks is awful, for example). So the situation is pretty much similar to ConTeXt. The difference is that the LaTeX core is rather primitive (compared to ConTeXt), and even a bad manual can do - and the mainstream packages are usually well documented. In case of ConTeXt, most functionality one needs is in the core, which is documented as badly as LaTeX's. Regards -- Marcin Borkowski (http://mbork.pl) This program is written in Perl.
