Dear all,
this time I have a question not concerning how to ship ConTeXt in Debian
or so, but very different.
Does anyone have experience with authoring for web and print. I.e.,
we want to maintain only one format and generate both web pages and
printed documentation from it. Is there intrinsic or through addons
support in ConteXt for this?
Any suggestion would be greatly welcome
Norbert

I think the most natural route would be to author your content in
generic xml. This can be wonderfully processed in ConTeXt, and you can
use XSLT to produce xhtml. In theory, you could also directly process
xhtml in ConTeXt, but personally (mind you, I'm no authority on these
questions at all) writing xml (such as docbook) gives you more wiggle
room, should you ever want to reuse your content (just think your
organization uses a new CMS, and you need a different form of html).

The relevant manual section [1] seems to be the authoritative document
on this, though I don't know how up-to-date it is. The wiki [2]
contains additional, perhaps more practical, information.

Don't go that route ... it's mkii based and overloads low level context
commands (which even for that approach is not needed). It's far more
convenient to use mkiv's tree based xml handler with expressions.

Consider pandoc.
But you probably need math. :-)

I've always thought that TEI-Lite was a nice, general purpose xml markup.
There is already an example of an XML stylesheet on the wiki.
