weird.

i note that we have three different versions of the file (and of
supp-mis) on ctan; one in macros/pdftex/graphics and one each in
macros/context/cont-tmf.zip and macros/context/beta/cont-tmf.zip 

the ones on tug.org (which afaik aren't anywhere we can mirror them)
are different again.

does anyone in the pdftex community have a view on which one(s) should
be used to replace the copies on ctan?

and does anyone in the pdftex community have any idea of how ctan
might keep up-to-date with these files as they develop?  or does the
pdftex community just not care about confusions such as this?

(where do you get _your_ copies from, thomas?)
