A bit of a diversion here, but two questions about the plethora of PDF docs:

* Where are the TeX sources of all these manuals kept?

svn://ctx.pragma-ade.nl/manuals (seems to be down at the moment)

browsable at

http://context.aanhet.net/svn/

This information is also available on the wiki (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Official_ConTeXt_Documentation)

* What are the licenses on all these various things? In particular the
Pragma documents. Would I be *allowed*, if I so wanted, to embark on a
collated version of all of this -- i.e., are derivative works allowed?

The program code (i.e. anything not under the /doc subtree) is distributed under the GNU GPL; the documentation is provided under Creative Commons Attribution NonCommercial ShareAlike license.

So, derivative work is allowed, provided you do not sell your work.

The new user manaul http://foundry.supelec.fr/gf/project/contextman/scmsvn/?action=browse&path=%2Fcontext-reference%2F
is a attempt to be a collected version of all the documents, and it is under GNU Free Documentation License, so if you copy from there, your result should have the same license.
