meeting not online

Hi everyone who was interested in participating in the meeting remotely, I just recognized I forgot to include some addresses in the participants address, thus some information didn’t reach the adressees. The DSL connection here in Dreifelden is very weak and unreliable – even if streaming works sometimes, usually it’s just enough for email. Yesterday we streamed for one guy via mobile connections, but those who offered their phones for it have now mostly used up their data volume and need the rest for themselves. We suspected the Wifi to be the bottleneck, but when I bought and installed an ethernet cable, it wouldn’t get better. I’m very sorry, but we can’t keep that up. Hraban

[secure site not available]

When trying to download the context distribution for linux and 64 https://lmtx.pragma-ade.nl/install-lmtx/context-linux-64.zip i get a warning about missing security: HTTPS-Only Mode Alert Secure Site Not Available You’ve enabled HTTPS-Only Mode for enhanced security, and a HTTPS version of lmtx.pragma-ade.nl is not available. Learn More… What could be causing this? Most likely, the website simply does not support HTTPS. It’s also possible that an attacker is involved. If you decide to visit the website, you should not enter any sensitive information like passwords, emails, or credit card details. If you continue, HTTPS-Only Mode will be turned off temporarily for this site. Is there a (simple) solution?

\startcolumnset ... \stopcolumnset is working.
by Jeong Dal 14 Sep '22

14 Sep '22

Dear all, I didn’t test “\startcolumnset … \stopcolumnset” for some time, because I got error whenever I tested it under Mac OS Big Sur. However, two days ago, I tested it, and found that it was working. I install updated version today and run a test file again. Finally, I get an output without error! I don't know what is happened, but it is a good news. Here is a sample file which I simplified one that is given by one of the experts. Someone may modify it better. Thanks to ConTeXt team.

How do I write a digital book that can become a physical book without a lot of modifications?
by amano.kenji 10 Sep '22

10 Sep '22

A digital book doesn't need to be double-sided. But, a physical book can be double-sided. Double-sidedness may require adjusting contents in many places. How can I write a digital book that doesn't have to be heavily modified in order to become a physical book? I want almost no modification at all.
