 I'm doing all the time;)).  I want another kind of itemize for lists of:

 * statements connected by an or clause (as in: at least one of these

 * statements connected by an and clause (as in: assume that these
  conditions are satisfied: ...).

 What I usually do (in LaTeX) is to define a few environments, like
 equivenumerate, orenumerate, andenumerate etc., and make them use
 (a), (b), ..., (i), (ii), ..., or (1), (2), ... respectively.  This way
 I have a clear visual clue in my papers on what's going where, and on
 the other hand, I separate content and presentation.

 Would it be possible in ConTeXt?  If yes, how to do this?  Maybe it's
 worth mentioning in the new manual?

 Take a look at page 20.

Really nice! I should steal that to renew my own presentations... ;-)

Unfortunately it's full of typos.

Hey, that's just WOW!!!  It's a pity it's in German - I'll have to
recall what I learned about that language a looong time ago...

But thanks, thanks a million times!
