Hello !
I'm interested for some time (say 2-3 years) in the resolution of a
specific bug, described in the documentation here
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TABLE#Multipage_TABLEs
as
*Beware:*Split tables often begin not on the page (or in the column, if
you use them) where they/could/start, but on/in the next one. This is a
known limitation due to the complicated calculation of remaining space
on the page. That won't become better before this calculations are newly
written in Lua. (Said Hans on 2010-09-24.)
Simply, do you have any shedule for this issue to be solved ?
Many thanks in advance,
Thomas
