I agree that it would be awesome if there was complete documentation available + maybe three manuals/tutorials from beginner to master, but you cannot expect it from Hans to do all the work on his own.

I think that part of the work has to be done by other volunteers (users), who have enough experience to write in good style user documentation. That kind of work does not depend on Hans or Taco alone. I think their important task is to have the technical documentation up-to-date and/or provide well enough information about the changes in releases, that others can write good user-documentation. First priority I guess would be to have the contextgarden Wiki up-to-date: many commands and/or parameters are not touched there. There are many outdate pages (with broken links, etc.), and definatately I would guess a better split is needed between MkII and MkIV wherever applicable. If time and experience-level allows me, I would like to start working on that kind of things. Someday I would also like to write a user-manual for Context novices (and ppl. new to Tex in general). But first I need to sort out some things myself, esp. about the whole font-mechanism, and how Context handles it. And as of yet I have no clue on what is what in the Context/Tex tree and where to find all the sources. Keeps me busy some time... Greetings, Rob -------- PS. And also material on 'good typography' would come in handy as weblinks and in Context user-manuals. Yesterday, I read this online typography manual, which contains some usefull tips about Typography. See: http://practicaltypography.com/index.html#toc I see that he also uses protrusion in the left-margin for quotations (when you start a sentence on a new line with a quotation), something which Context atm. does not do, only in the right margin, but the result is good. Definately some feature request. ___________________________________________________________________________________
