I am pleased to an­nounce that the new ConTeXt re­lease from Hans Ha­gen can be down­loaded as of now. The cur­rent re­lease has ver­sion 2006.07.14 A very short list of changes is given be­low. As usual, there is an html page with more de­tailed re­lease notes avail­able on the Wiki, see: http://wiki.con­textgar­den.net/Re­lease_Notes New fea­tures since 2006.05.11: * The use of \sometxt in Me­taPost fig­ures (in­stead of \tex­text) can (some­times) re­move the need for in­di­rect "tex­exec" runs, re­sult­ing in a mas­sive speed im­prove­ment for heavy doc­u­ments. * Ta­ble split­ting is reim­ple­mented and im­proved * Ini­tial sup­port for the new TeXGyre font fam­i­lies * A new re­lease of the bib mod­ule, with bet­ter sup­port for in­ter­ac­tion and per-chap­ter bib­li­ogra­phies * Some small ex­ten­sions to \framed * The database mod­ule now sup­ports ASCII (non-TeX) files with CSV quot­ing * \se­tup­for­mu­lae ac­cepts a con­ver­sion pa­ram­e­ter now * More built in math sup­port (ma­tri­ces etc.) * A pre­re­lease of the "koeielet­ters" font * A new mod­ule for R in­te­gra­tion * Item­iza­tions can be ran­dom­ized (for mul­ti­ple-choice course­ware) * Sup­port for type­set­ting OpenMath (via MathML)
