Hello,

I would rather include examples in the wiki¹ and the ConTeXt Manual² (prose)
and let the command reference cover only the dry descriptions.

Perhaps (not examples, only the dry descriptions).
Mojca, Patrick and me agreed, that there should be some mechanism,
1.) that shows the content of the cid-files³ as html on the wiki
2.) that permits users to modify the cid-files using the wiki-interface

The question is: how, when and who?

Of course.

Not yet. Hopefully yes in the near future.

To discuss the ConTeXt documentation, you can also use the mailing-list on
http://foundry.supelec.fr/gf/project/contextman.
