The trouble is, it is not working for me. My minimal testfile is:
\usetypescriptfile[type-buy]\setupbodyfont[lucida] % new fontbook says "preloaded no"
\starttext
Hello world!
\stoptext

I tried this on a freshly load beta. The lucida-afm's lbr.afm etc. and their corresponding type1-files are on the path. After about 5 minutes on a MacPro-mid2010, I must assume luatex will not finish this typesetting job. It is aborted with in the log:

105 lucida: mtxrun --script context lucidatest

Here is the afm-file called in the last line of the log; formerly this file has done its job for me and it has not been changed since.

Without the line \usetypescriptfile[type-buy]\setupbodyfont[lucida] this typsets just fine.
What is wrong or what am I doing wrong here?

You should better not use [type-buy] at all, but that is unrelated.

Apart from that, the versions of ConTeXt earlier than 2011.03.11 11:45
were having problems for me as well (infinite loops and nonworking
math), but I see that Hans didn't release any new beta yet. You can
use --context=experimental at your own risk.
