Hi,
I was having trouble getting italics to work for a PDF that uses the Lato font. Bold and 'normal' were rendering just fine.
In the log I saw some lines like:

I noticed Context was searching for *reglta (with a lower case "L") rather than regita (with an "i").
Looking at the file http://source.contextgarden.net/tex/context/base/type-imp-lato.mkiv I can see that all the synonyms point to *lta rather than *lta inside the \definefontsynonym commands.
I tried changing all the instances of *lta to *ita in type-imp-lato.mkiv on two different systems (Ubuntu and MacOS) and in both cases I subsequently got italics in my PDF.
I suppose this could be a bug. Is this list the right place to report it?
sure
My apologies if it is in fact something I was doing wrong!
