The table
People, you should not be using "latest" in the binaries table. It means nothing. If you compile from svn, please use the svn version id. I am now already unsure what the version of luatex linux-64 is Taco
Experimental setup for Ubuntu
Ubuntu comes with texlive from Feb 2007. That is too old for ConTeXt. I tried to install a parallel tree using the minimals and that failed. So, I tried to merge the minimal tree with texlive. Here are the steps (I am new to linux, so may be doing something really wrong here, use at your own risk)

cp $HOME/tex/texmf-linux-64/web2c/pdftex.pool $HOME/tex/texmf-context/web2c
You also need to add a TEXMFCNF=/usr/share/texmf/web2c/ and PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH in your .bashrc or equivalent file.
Seems to work ok. I will test more, and if it works, maybe copy this information to the main page --Aditya 21:55, 16 December 2007 (CET)
Chinese
We had on TODO list: support for Chinese Japanese and Korean, see Hans's manual
And here's a user comment:
No need to do this:
- you have no right to distribute most of the Chinese fonts.
- some free available fonts are ugly and no one use them.
- MKIV support font loading, so users can load their chinese fonts in their machine.
