I suppose that Luigi is already testing things, and will report on it in
detail, but here's a quick and dirty check on what's in there:
\starttypescript [math] [stix] [name]
\definefontsynonym[MathRoman][file:stixgeneral.otf] [features=math]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [serif] [stix] [name] % why 'italic' infull and 'bol'
without 'd'?
\definefontsynonym[Serif] [file:stixgeneral.otf]
[features=default]
\definefontsynonym[SerifBold] [file:stixgeneralbol.otf]
[features=defaulth]
\definefontsynonym[SerifItalic] [file:stixgeneralitalic.otf]
[features=default]
\definefontsynonym[SerifBoldItalic][file:stixgeneralbolita.otf]
[features=default]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript[stix]
\definetypeface [stix] [rm] [serif] [stix] [default]
\definetypeface [stix] [mm] [math] [stix] [default]
\stoptypescript
\usetypescript[stix]
\setupbodyfont[stix]
\usemodule[fnt-25]
\startbuffer[mathtest]
\begingroup\mm\mr\showmathfontcharacters\endgroup
\stopbuffer
Well, sort of as expected ... no opentype math font at all ... I wonder
what took 'm so long ... okay, luatex/mkiv could be wrong and is no
reference and could well be unable to handle an opentype math font but
the only reference to math in the font is to the copyright holders, i.e.
no math table, so i wonder what programs like msword can do with it.
Okay, I could make a virtual font but gimme a reason. So, it looks like
Khaled has to do his magic and make a proper 'derived work' unless we
want to wait till 1.1 which will show up end 2010.
The good news is that there are lots of glyphs. Kerns indeed but only a
liga feature (interesting with a NLD variant).

Are these any good? It sounds like an epic thing, but why is that so?

depends on your needs, the current otf version is probably usable for
primary school math (no large operators and so in the core font)

Oh, so it's primarily a font aimed for mathematical equations and suchlike?

Or the Guinness Book of Records with the biggest repertoire of math
symbols (althoug cambria probably has more) .
\starttext
\showfont[file:stixgeneral.otf][all]
\stoptext
(which reminds me ... the fonts probably also lack the smaller desing
sizes)

Hello,
Could someone please confirm that it is ok to use \def like this:
\def\ru{\switchtobodyfont[cyr]\language[ru]}
\starttext
\item {\ru Эйхенбаум, Борис. {\it Теория «формального метода»}.}
Some other text in the main language.
\stoptext
This is MkII with XeTeX, cyr is defined as
\definetypeface[cyr][rm][Xserif][CMU Serif]
\definetypeface[cyr][ss][Xsans][CMU Sans Serif]
\definetypeface[cyr][tt][Xmono][CMU Typewriter Text]
because 'Latin Modern' lacks cyrillic glyphs and 'Computer Modern Unicode'
lacks some Lithuanian glyphs (and looks slightly different).

In MkIV you can set falback fonts for cyrillic etc.
