Thank you Hans and Wolfgang,
I have updated the wiki (https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/date) with
the new dayshort/daylong options, but I seem to get an empty value for
every day after day 7, see example:
\starttext
\date[d=7,m=4,y=2008][{\dayshort\normalday},{,~},day,~,month,~,year] \par
\date[d=8,m=4,y=2008][{\dayshort\normalday},{,~},day,~,month,~,year]
\stoptext
This gives me (note "sun" is missing in the second line):
sat, 7 April 2008
, 8 April 2008
Am I using the options correctly?
Still using luatex and not luametatex.

Hi,
Is there a way to achieve a short weekday option with \date[] to get 3 letter equivalents (Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun) similar to the monthshort either through context or lua? Not currently but I will add the basics (I have to double check with WS to see where if conflicts as such an extension involves additional commands it has to go into the setups too) but others have to add the abbreviations.
