While starting ConTeXt, I found ConTeXt an excrusion and ConTeXt manual to be extremely well written, much better than what I had read for LaTeX (but then, I never bought a LaTeX book). What do you find missing in the ConTeXt documentation that a book should cover?
In Epen we discussed 'the book' and a 'ConTeXt cookbook'. I think that this discussion shows that it would be good for the ConTeXt community to have a book published by a publisher (like AW), but someone (or a small committee) has to coordinate it.
I agree! The documentation situation of ConTeXt is rather messy. Some stuff on the wiki, many, many PDFs with cryptic names and some years old. LaTeX since ages has "lshort" as the quick standard intro (and of course numerous others) and then the mighty 1100+ pages tome Mittelbach et al. "The LaTeX Companion" where most things can be found that even the anvanced user might need (recently it appeared in a second edition, thus probably securing LaTeXs leading position for another decade...). http://www.amazon.com/dp/0201362996 Now, if we had "The ConTeXt Companion" ;-) Cheers Ulf
