1) Is there a way to make ConTeXt stricter? It seem that ConTeXt will not complain if you misspell the names of colours, layers, overlays etc. I would rather it did.
Currently not :(
3a) Similarly I would like to make the textheight longer so that the footer is about 1cm from the bottom of the page. I have had no luck in setting textheight using setuplayout.
Use height=... for that.
4) Is there a module to parse CVS tags, like the RCS package for laTeX?
There have been some attempts, but I don't remember the outcome.
5) Can I use OpenType and TrueType fonts in ConTeXt? Ideally via fontspec.
Fontspec is written for (Xe)LaTeX only (admittedly, it has some more advanced features in comparison to ConTeXt mechanisms), but both XeTeX and LuaTeX should nevertheless work OK with ConTeXt with no special package or module. Blame me for not updating the "Fonts in XeTeX" page on Wiki.
8) Is anyone proficient with ConTeXt going to the Cork TeX User Group meeting?
There is also a ConTeXt meeting in August (Easyjet flies from Stansted almost directly to the conference site), so if you want some more fun next to the lake in the middle of Alps, in a small country that you have probably never visited before, you're more than welcome to come. Mojca
