I one uses XML why use ConTeXt. Yet, I one wants to use ConTeXt and do ebooks and they have experience why force them to XML. As I stated the idea use ConTeXt to do the markup with commands that will ensure proper input of HTML5 for making ebooks that will render well on MOST ereaders and at the same time be typeset by ConTeXt to good quality PDF! ereaders need the html code to adhere to special guidelines in order to create a high quality display for the ebook. That is why special commands are needed to restirct the features available! regards Keith.
