    Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    Fixes:

    - Correctly regenerate ConTeXT databases in `Dockerfile`. (reported by @witiko
    in gucci-on-fleek/context-packaging#2 and #575, fixed by @witiko and
    @gucci-on-fleek in gucci-on-fleek/context-packaging@0459634,
    gucci-on-fleek/context-packaging@f8ee60e, d4c0054, 6fbd4dc, ccf580b, 850bef8,
    and 53a3335)

    - Only quote `\jobname`-based token lists when the engine would. (reported by
    @andreiborisov in #557, fixed by @witiko in #582)

    This change improves support for LuaMetaTeX.

    Dependencies:

    - Remove dependency on library `lua-uni-algos`. (added by @witiko in #569)

    Defaults:

    - In LaTeX, load enumitem instead of paralist when the user has expressed an
    intent to use new tag-friendly code by writing `\DocumentMetadata`.
    (reported by @witiko in #578, fixed by @witiko and @u-fischer in #579)

    Continuous integration:

    - Rename GitHub Action `teatimeguest/setup-texlive-action@v3` to `TeX-Live/...`.
    (reported by @pablogonz in #576, fixed by @witiko in 28ba10b5)

    - Use current pkgcheck. (reported by @manfredlotz via email and by @witiko
    in #580, fixed in #581)

    Tests:

    - Improve the speed of our tests more by than 3+. (added by @zauguin,
    @muzimuzhi, @gucci-on-fleek, and @josephwright in latex3/latex3#1791,
    discussed in #557 and #584)

    - Enable LuaMetaTeX in ConTeXt tests. (added by @witiko in #557 with major
    contributions from @josephwright and @gucci-on-fleek in #557,
    latex3/latex3#1791, latex3/latex3#1797, and elsewhere)

    Documentation:

    - Add installation instructions for ConTeXt Standalone to the user manual.
    (reported by @andreiborisov in #402, added by @witiko and @gucci-on-fleek
    in #557)

    Continuous integration:

    - Do not use self-hosted runners in pull requests either. (07af69a8)
    - Remove TeX Live 2023 and 2024 from the continuous integration. (5cb59800)

    This is because we can't typeset the ConTeXt LMTX example document with
    earlier TeX Live versions. TeX Live 2023 and 2024 are still supported.

    Examples:

    - Add example file `examples/context-lmtx.tex` for ConTeXt LMTX.
    (added by @witiko in #557 with major contributions from @josephwright and
    @gucci-on-fleek in #557 and elsewhere)

    Housekeeping:

    - Remove needless ignored issues. (fixed by @witiko in #583)
