- download the binaries from

- make install.sh and bin/mtxrun executable
- run install.sh
and you can see the upgrade progression again.

Hi,
Just a quick note on logo design:
The ConTeXt logo could just as well be a set of tulips or
some (TeX-styled) lion or a dutch cow or a windmill or

The design is new, interesting and refreshing but being a traditionalist, I
