first=setup.sh never changed so there was no reason to download that, 
and the idea is that install.sh also is rather stable (and like 
fitst-setup it also updates)

currently not, you can just rerun the install script and it will only 
fetch new files (which is pretty fast) (unzipping the beta zip in 
texmf-context probably works ok too but that won't update binaries)

for modules and fonts you have to wait till mojca has the garden up and 
running (for now you can just copy the subtrees from a regular 
installation)

(i don't have such a local fonts tree as my own fonts tree is way larger 
and i don't want mixups)
