I did not have the ConTeXt manual source code on hand, so I could not directly modify it.

Do not count on someone else to fix it. Create an account and fix what you think could be improved, especially the grammar and spelling mistakes. If you're unsure about something, write a mail to the manual mailing list¹ for questions about the manual (style, layout, etc.) or this list for everything else.

Note: The manual has not been updated since a while and it's broken at the moment. I'll prepare a fix soon, so it will compile with a recent MkIV.

I committed a fix today and now it should compile again. I did not fix any of your suggestions. You are invited to fix the source or send in a patch. I or someone else can review and merge them.

The dedicated mailing list for the manual seems to be broken at the moment. Using this list for manual discussions is also fine, I guess.

Wouldn't it be better to move the manuals to github rather than keeping them on an svn server? Aditya
