Hi,

I uploaded a beta release. The biggest change is that image inclusion in 
mkiv has changed. Currently it's still some mix of tex and lua code, and 
the backend code is somewhat messy (and not complete yet) but it's a 
first step towards lua doing things. This will only work with a e recent 
luatex.

The advantage is that file searching in lua is more robust (and when 
many search paths are used, also faster). Image conversion has been 
moved to lua too, but currently still uses pdftops (also for svg) but 
that may move to lua as well. Figure libraries are supported by default 
now.


Hans
