Re: 10+ reasons why I still use MKII

Dear Hans,

(I'll answer the rest later)

But it has always worked perfectly until recently. And it's not really
mp environment. I suspect that the text gets typeset with TeX, not
with metapost, so metapost enviroment should not really count.

I have a version of ConTeXt that dates back to
    2009.11.24 10:13
and in that one it still works properly. In version
    2010.02.26 10:57
it is broken.

You know ... you have written a devoted \startsimplethesis for me,
don't you remember :)
Random images and equations were included there as well, I just
extended macros a bit to adapt the result to the expertise of each
jury member last september :)

It doesn't get much simpler than the following:

\usemodule[bib]
% this line spoils the show
\setuppublications[alternative=num]
\setuppublicationlayout[webpage]{\inserturl{}{}{}}
\startpublication[k=pragma,t=webpage]
\biburl{http://www.pragma-ade.com}
\stoppublication

\starttext
\cite[pragma]\par\placepublications
\stoptext

Defining new publication types doesn't seem to be compatible with
alternative=num in MKIV.
