Hallo, I tried to update my metapost executable in the Windows ConTeXt minimal. In the bin dir I found both mpost.exe (Version 1.000-rc1) and a mpost.dll In the archive 'metapost-1.002-windows.zip' there is mpost.exe (Version 1.002 (Web2C 7.5.5)) and no dll So I downloaded 'mplib-alpha-0.20-win32.zip' but there is an other exe newpost.exe (Version 1.002 (Cweb version 0.20)) and no dll So I wonder where I can find the matching dll and which exe above is the right one. There is an other strange thing: In the aktuell 'cont-win.zip' is a 'texmfstart.exe' dated 2007-08-07 with about 700 KB. But the 'texmfstart.exe' in my bin dir, which is installed 7 or 8 months ago ist dated 2007-08-08 and much bigger (~900KB). The next thing I wanted to do ist to update LuaTeX. Ohjeohje?!

Easiest link for updating metapost : http://minimals.contextgarden.net/current/bin/metapost/mswin/bin/
So I downloaded 'mplib-alpha-0.20-win32.zip'
That is not a normal metapost release, at all.
The next thing I wanted to do ist to update LuaTeX.
