the problem is that there is a bunch of context users out there who think (are 
being told, whatever) that they shoul duse the provided ones instead of 
generating them by texfont or afm2tfm (so they want to use the presumably 
present ones and not generate them by texfont, which is ok for me; but 
unfortunately they are not always there; and then they try the ps ones, which 
are only there for ec an dnot fo rtexnansi and then ... and then ...)

well, i give up on fonts ... maybe some day i just put metric files in the 
context zip (ec texnansi qx), why should i care about those few extra bytes

thanks for your patience

Hans

ps. i have no problems with the minimal context distribution since in that one i 
use prefixed names
