I hope (and this perhaps has nothing to do with the brilliant Context development team) is that journals start accepting Context files. While I use context for my personal and class notes, for articles I am still forced to go to latex because journals do not accept context files.
In fact, not many journals even accept LaTeX: I sometimes have to submit so-called ".txt" files! As Otared Kavian pointed out, the mathematics journals are a bit more advanced (as are the purely physics journals), and LaTeX is even a standard. Unfortunately, arXiv.org (still) has problems with ConTeXt, as the submitted source is detected as TeX but the compilation fails. One is thus obligated to translate to LaTeX: "Your (La)TeX, AMS(La)TeX, or PDFLaTeX submission will be processed automatically by our AutoTeX software." Now, if only my administration and funding agencies would stop sending MS-Word files... Alan
