You can keep one minimal distribution frozen for your project, and can have both installed)use another one to use a up-to-date ConTeXt.* does Does not need root privileges to be installed* takes Takes reasonable amount of space** does Does not include any LaTeX packages & binaries** faster** not such a problem Faster (due to have multiple versions installed (they do not interferesmaller size)** possible Possible to make it even smaller by installing only luatex for example
They are The distribution is hosted on '''http://minimals.contextgarden.net''' (equivalent to '''rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/'''). You need to have '''rsync''' installed. For windows, a binary of rsync is available as part of the minimal distribution.
Everyone is invited to test this distribution, but is kindly asked for patience and understanding until we tidy up the details. You need to have '''rsync''' installed, for windows it's shipped together with the minimals.
