The first one is support for multiple languages. That is, I'd like to know if ConTeXt has anything similar to babel, and, if not, how can similar results be achieved. The second one is support for bibliography: can BibTeX be used with ConTeXt? The third one is about math. I do lots of mathematics, and I found AMS LaTeX very powerfull for my needs. From what I got reading the manual, I can surely have features like \newtheorem and alike in ConTeXt, with no problem (and maybe even with more power on customization); but, I haven't found anything about mathematics; can I use AMSTeX on ConTeXt? One last thing: I'd like to support/contribute to ConTeXt, helping in developing an italian interface and possibly translating the ConTeXt manual (when it will be complete). What can/should I do? -- Giuseppe Bilotta
