Hi I've put an alpha release on the website - no beta as mkiv needs the trunk version of luatex - a close to complete split in mkii/mkiv - cleaned up mkiv code - cleaned up mkiv backend (some pending issues) - some speedups in mkiv - a few fixes in mkii - updated mkiv typescripts (more to come) - fixes in mkiv structure this version is not replicated on the context garden as we run older luatex binaries there (0.45 release by the end of this month) you can unzip this file on your locla tree but best first rename the tex/context/base directory and make a fresh one as otherwise you end up with a weird mixture (due to the definitive split in .mkii/.mkiv there are not that many shared .tex files any more) on the upcoming tex live there will be an updated mkii (either this one or the current beta which is basically a current for mkii) and an old mkiv (maybe the beta) or a new one but that one will not run then with the luatex on texlive as it is too old; this is no big deal as you can either use the minimals or use the new updater in the upcoming tex live to fetch newer binaries (norbert and mojca showed that trickery at bachotek 2009) next on the mkiv agenda is an upgrade/rework of everything related to page building but it might as well be postponed till we have a bit more access (which will happen sometime after eurotex); the first priority is to get the new structure related code right but as idris is already publising books made by mkiv it's not that bad as it sounds.
