Hi all,

I'm   a  regular  user  of  LaTeX,  (even an advanced one, I may say).
Recently I was intrigued by ConTeXt. I   knew  ConTeXt time ago, and I
was   always  impressed by its apparent flexibilty, simplicity and the
good  results  t  produced.  However,  I  was  afraid  of  trying  it,
because   I'm  Spanish,  and  I  thought that ConTeXt will not have as
good support as LaTeX for the spanish language.

Recently, I  decided  finally  to  download ConTeXt and give it a try.
After a few days reading the (excellent) documentation and trying some
examples,  I  finally  discovered   that  ConTeXt  has  a good Spanish
support.  That was great!

I   have  to  write  a  PhD  thesis,  and I'm considering switching to
ConTeXt   for   doing   this, however I'm a bit afraid of doing so. My
main  concerns    are   the   support   for   BibTeX   and   for  high
mathematics typesetting.

If  I'm not wrong, ConTeXt is based in Plain TeX, so I wonder if I can
use AMSTeX with ConTeXt. Which would be your advise?

Thank you for any answer, and please, excuse my english.

Best Regards,
--
