== Other notes ==
We need to:
* create a file <code>minimals.lua</code> (or some other self-explanatory name):
** <b>rsync location</b> (default: <code>rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals</code>, could be anything)
** fetch files with rsync
** create formats
== Rewrite this == We wanted to provide:* an easy to (no-need-to-)install ConTeXt distribution* a '''fast and convenient way to update ConTeXt and binaries to the latest version''' ''(no need to fetch 100 MB when only minimal modifications have been made in the distribution)''* a reference ConTeXt distribution* an easy way to revert to an older ConTeXt (in case the latest one is broken) We do not plan to provide:* LaTeX packages ''(perhaps the really-basic-latex as an add unzip -on package, but only if someone else has time to investigate what is needed)''* extensive support for whatever binaries or packages which are otherwise standard in TeX distributions: use TeX Live or MikTeX for windowsthat purpose [[Category:Standalone|TODO]][[Category:ToDo]]
