Context on texlive is updated once a year. It is a somewhat elaborate
process because texlive wants some stuff removed from the distribution
and quite some other stuff has to be relocated. I prefer not to do
that except when it is absolutely necessary.

The next texlive will normally have the latest stable context from
the week before the code freeze.

There definately be a luatex executable included as well, but it will
be more for the benefit of having texlua as a scripting engine, than
for proper typesetting.

Best wishes,
Taco
