I disagree, a version from 2016 is not very old. I have a lot of documents
using a ConText setup which works with this version
of luatex and context.

Last week I tried to use the latest beta with my documents and the beta was
unable to run my documents.
As it seems it is not backward compatible and I have no time at the moment
to debug or test.

So no, I cannot update at the moment.
