As Hans wrote already, there is a new context current.

The short news summary:

* Many of the stubs for the ruby tools have gone away. If you want one
   of the old command names back, just create a link from mtxrun to the
   required name, e.g. copy mtxrun.exe to mptopdf.exe on windows.
   Eventually all perl and ruby scripts will be gone. Most functionality
   is already provided by lua variants.
* The hyphenation patterns for German, German (old), Hungarian and
   Spanish have been updated from the tex-hyphen project.
* New versions of the ancientgreek, letter, and simplefont modules are
   included.
* New modules (mkiv only): barcodes and punk
* Support for shockwave flash has been updated (mkiv only). The backend
   code has been rewritten and currently only pdf is supported.
* The split between mkii and mkiv is getting more complete. Only a few
   mkii bug fixes have taken place.
* Typescripts are now split completely and no definitions are shared;
   loading of a mkio/mkiv file takes precedence over a tex file.

As always, there is a detailed changes file on the wiki:

   http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Context_2010.05.08

This current context is meant for texlive 2010, but there is a little
time before the final freeze of the texlive repository, so there will
be a bugfix update in a week or so.

If you have pending urgent bugs (especially in mkii) this would be an
excellent time to report them.

You could try the mailing list, but a better approach to bug reporting
is to simultaneously create a tracker item at this url:

   http://tracker.luatex.org/search.php?project_id=2

Best wishes,
Taco
