+\subject{Presentations}
+
+For demonstration purposes we ship some presentations. Some of these are called
+up when a style is processed (in demo mode). The look and feel evolves with
+\ConTeXt\ and often a style uses some trickery (\TeX, \ConTeXt, \MetaPost, \Lua\
+etc.) I was playing with at that moment. The older styles therefore use more PDF
+trickery than the later ones (especially because in the end the viewers were less
+stable than we hoped).
+
+Of the hundreds of presentations made so far only a subset can be found here. You
+can find some more on the web (conference websites). Many presentations are
+outdated but might have some historic value or show some tricks. The real old
+ones are not here anyway. Some presentations build upon a previous one although I
+try to avoid duplicate talks. Of course status reports can be somewhat redundant
+but keep in mind that meetings are also for developers.
+
+\ConTeXt, \LuaTeX and \MetaPost\ related presentations happened at meetings of \TeX\
+user groups like TUG, NTG, Bacho\TeX, Dante, CSTUG, UKTUG, GUTENBERG, but also at
+other occasions but not all make sense to collect here, if only because when they
+were close in time some were similar. Also, I just deleted some sources when I
+found them irrelevant for reuse. You can always report a missing one in which
+case I'll see if I can find back the source. If you really want some MkII style
+in MkIV too, let me know.
