How can I configure the context in order to use CJK-Ext B chinese characters in context?

How can I configure the context in order to use CJK-Ext B chinese characters in context?

[Hongyi Zhao]

Dear Hans,

If I want to use CJK-Ext B chinese characters in my Context presentations,
what should I do?

As far as I know, ConTeXt can process at least GBK characters without 
problem. I'm not sure about CJK-Ext B.

if not one can define a conversion; however, some encodings have problems because chars < 127 are used, which will mess up macro handling

which brings me to luatex and chinese ... in luatex we can do input reencoding in more clever ways and since we will move on to luatex (pdftex 2) next year, it makes sense if chinese users start providing input for this (apart from other input when we arrive at the font issues) ..

 Excuse me, what do you mean by "start providing input for this " ? What 
to provide and how to provide ?

 I'm not an expert in TeXing, but I'm willing to help ConTeXt to do 
better in processing Chinese.
