Re: [NTG-context] Context 2005.11.11 Released
Hi Adam, Is this a Halo release for TeXLive? I don't know what that means, but no, this context release won't be on TL'05. That's frozen, and Manfred is making the golden masters for final testing and production now. From what Hans and Taco have told me, the post-TL context releases aren't critical, i.e., TL should be ok. If that's not the case, I don't want to know :). (Ok, not really, please inform ASAP if that's so :) Cheers, k ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

(Ok, not really, please inform ASAP if that's so :) there could be a problem for users who install tex live alongside older local trees with for instance latin modern instances and map settings; there are a few fixes in macros as well as the mp related issues; also a missing map file was added (to be sure) there are no conceptual changes so just unzipping the latest zip in the tree should pose no problems (i'm in fiona-apple-and-kate-bush-latest-cds-listening-loop-mode which is great for fixing/adding things reported the last months -) Hans ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
