[NTG-context] Metapost docs

2024-01-07 Thread Shiv Shankar Dayal
I see many libraries for Metapost in Context source. Where are these
documented? I see Metafun manual as well, but I do not find all the
included libraries described.

Thank you, that looks good but it’s not what I had in mind.

I meant a poster _about_ ConTeXt, not only made with our toolset (I have 
a stack of books for that). Maybe something about typography.


Here’s how the DANTE booth at FrOSCon 2023 looked like:

(The “mindmap” diagram on the left shows projects supported by DANTE, in 
the middle a drawing by Duane Bibby, on the right a Tux with its TikZ 
source code in the back.)
We also had posters that show the architecture of TeX/LaTeX, but they 
were seriously outdated.


Some elements that might fit:
– some example code (like from Mikael’s BachoTeX presentation)
– anatomy of a word and a formula (with all those little boxes and 
measures), maybe also in Arabic

– dodo & cow drawings from Mikael’s math manual
– overview of layout areas (I re-made Sietse’s drawing from the wiki for 
my book)

- workflow diagrams
– parts of LuaMetaTeX
– artwork by Eçir Baff (art-aleatoire.com)
– Hans’ recent christmas card / memory game artwork

But I don’t want just a wild collection of stuff, there should be 
something connecting them. It should be interesting to look at as well 
as basic information about ConTeXt.

[NTG-context] Chemnitz, Leipzig, Call for Poster

2024-01-07 Thread Henning Hraban Ramm

Hi folks,

in March, there’ll be Linux Days in Chemnitz/Germany (Chemnitzer 
Linuxtage, https://chemnitzer.linux-tage.de/2024/en/), an OSS fair. 
DANTE usually has a booth there, and this time I’ll help.


I’d like to have a poster that shows off ConTeXt/MetaFun features.
Do you have suggestions or (even better) would you like to create it?
It would be nice to have for further events (last year I presented 
ConTeXt at FrOSCon and CCCamp and lacked a poster).


In the following week and nearby, there’s Leipzig book fair (including 
Manga-Comic-Con), https://www.leipziger-buchmesse.de/

It’s always a great experience!
Our little publishing house will have a booth again (full of books made 
with ConTeXt) – please visit me, if you come!
