9After five collections of \quote {articles} about the development of \LUATEX,
10\CONTEXT\ \MKIV, \LUAMETATEX\ and \CONTEXT\ \LMTX, there is even more to tell so
11here is number six. Wrapping up not only serves to inform the users but for me it is
12also a way to get things right: if you cannot write it down it's no good. It forces
13me to (re)consider interfaces and also test new code but of course it comes with
14no guarantees.

16When writing this introduction I just finished the first chapter, about some new
17font stuff, as follow up on the (again) nice \CONTEXT\ meeting in 2019. It's
18always inspiring to meet and talk with my \TEX\ friends and see what they're
19doing. It keeps me going.

21Some chapters end up in user group journals first so they will be added once they
22have been published and are available. The advantage is that these are then
23copy|-|edited. Many texts, also in previous development updates, got better
24because Karl Berry checked them thoroughly for TUGboat, for which I'm grateful.

26Hopefully, this document serves a purpose.
