May I credit you in DTK?
Hi, I’m writing an article for DANTE’s magazine “Die TeXnische Komödie” (DTK) about the current discussions and developments in ConTeXt, and I’m planning to do that regularly. Find attached the current version (in German / LaTeX). I’d like to give credit to people involved and mention some of you: Hans Hagen (of course) Jean-Pierre Delange Jürgen Hanneder Kauśika Otared Kavian Joey McCollum Pablo Rodriguez Thomas A. Schmitz Mikael Sundqvist If you don’t want that, I’ll remove your name, of course. You are also welcome to correct me, if I misunderstood you/something. Hraban

Hi, I am flattered that you want to credit me, but am not sure why you would want to do so: I am just a beginner here (relatively) and only recently from a month or two back got involved with the indic things. If you want to anyway, then I would only request you to kindly use my given name: śrīrāman (or śrīrāma) as very few people outside family know me as kauśika. I had created this account for personal use some time back and never thought to change the name. Now since I am professionally involved in this I have changed it to my given name. Thanks, śrīrāman (kauśika)

Well, you are very active in this discussion and thus advance the support for Indic languages. That’s what I say in the article. One reason for crediting active users (even if they don’t code themselves) is to bust the myths that ConTeXt would be a one-man-show and nobody would use it. (Other myths I address in this article are that ConTeXt would be unfit for math or bibliography.)

You’re welcome! I just assumed you wanted to stay pseudonymous. Hraban

(Other myths I address in this article are that ConTeXt would be unfit for math or bibliography.) Regarding the math and bibliography part, I would like to add that I am a graduate student of Electrical Engineering and as part of my thesis/ dissertation work I have to write and publish papers in the field (statistical signal processing, theoretical statistics). For all my personal thesis work, outside of journal work (where LaTeX is the norm) I use only ConTeXt. And the maths and bibliography support is simply top-notch. I hope to graduate soon (by July) and can share some of my work as a proof-of-concept if you wish. (Not sure I can do so now due to publications, etc. you know …).
Thanks, śrīrāman
If you want to mention me as a participant in the discussion, I have
no objections.
Best
Jürgen
