For those who love source code…

There is now a new git repository with the full context source code at http://dl.contextgarden.net/distribution/git/. There are two branches one with the stable release of context (aka current) and one with the beta release. Just do this:

git clone http://dl.contextgarden.net/distribution/git/

Now you have all stable releases since 10/1997 and all beta releases since 5/2009. The stable branch is the default branch, to switch to the beta branch you can do something like

git checkout -b beta origin/beta

update 2009-07-17: The repository is synchronized every day shortly after midnight. So todays stable will be there tomorrow morning.

After a long night and lots of work we came up with a new logo for context. What do you think of it?

new context logo (suggestion)

We are having a good time at the context meeting in Bohinj, Slovenia! Besides the talks you can find on the webpage, we have other interesting talks and event:

• Discussion about distributing context
• Excursion to a technical museum (we’ve made a TeX glyph) and a very impressive cave
• An attempt to design a (new) logo for context
• All kinds of discussions while sitting at a bonfire

To put it in two words, the meeting is “just great”.
