Dear ConTeXt folks,

`\dotsb` is not defined although it is defined in AMSTeX (amsmath) [1].

Is `\dotsb` not defined intentionally?

I do not completely understand why this command is needed. I think that the intent of amstex is that the user should use \dotsb for dots between binary operators and then change \dotsb to \cdots or \ldots depending on convention. If so, we need to add them to \setupmathematics or perhaps add a new command \setupmathdots[binary=middle,comma=low,...and others...] or something similar. Aditya
