Hi there,
like in January (see mail by Mari), the latest beta produces only
empty pages with 2UP imposition schema; others work (tested 2SIDE and
2DOWN).
e.g.
\setuppapersize [A5][A4,landscape]
\setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided,location=footer]
\setuplayout [margin=0pt,width=fit]
\setupbackgrounds [text][text][background=screen,backgroundscreen=0.7]
\setupcolors [state=start]
\setuplayout [location=middle,marking=on]
\setuparranging [2UP] %[2*2*4,doublesided]
\startbuffer[Fakepage]
\strut
\blank[force]
\midaligned{2UP}
\vfill
\midaligned{This is page \recurselevel}
\vfill
\stopbuffer
\setupheadertexts[\CONTEXT]
\starttext
\dorecurse{16}{\getbuffer[Fakepage]\page}
\stoptext
Greetlings, Hraban

Any news on that? Today's beta still is buggy.
Unfortunately I need 2UP imposition urgently.

still the same with latest beta.
Additionally: Is it possible to define a distance between imposed pages?
If I have bleeding images, they bleed into other pages.

Version 2011.11.29 23:11 works. I think you can get it on the git
repository. There was a thread recently about how to fetch it from
there.

Yes, e.g. "my" thread. I'm working with such an old version for the
project where I can’t live without 2UP imposition. But there are other
problems with that, and I really don’t like to switch ConTeXt versions
all the time.
The 2UP can’t be that hard to fix, can it? Other imposition schemes still work.

Even if I think that the imposition schemas are a wonderful ConTeXt
feature, I don't believe that helps (actually, I'm pretty sure it
doesn't) repeating that you need the now-broken feature.
Anyway, for simple 2UP scheme, if you need it badly and urgently, you
may want to try pdfjam (which uses LaTeX under the hood, I used it for a
while) or the psutils, with a pdf -> ps -> pdf trip (psbook), (both are
shipped with ConTeXt, I used them for a while and were really fine) or
even write your own imposer which uses ConTeXt under the hood. I wrote
and rewrote mine a couple of times (because I need a dinamically
determinated signature) and it's not that difficult. [1]

Sure:
%% start
\setuppapersize[A5][A4,landscape]
\setuparranging[2UP]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\starttext
\dorecurse{20}{
\input knuth
}
\stoptext
% stop
This produces 6 white pages with the latest beta (while output correctly
with 2011.11.29 23:11).
Best wishes

quick hack that you can put in cont-new.mkiv
\def\handlearrangedpageTWOUP
{\splitoffarrangedpagesTWO
\ifconditional\arrangedswapstate
\global\setbox\arrangedpageA\hbox
{\box\arrangedpageA
\box\arrangedpageB}%
\setfalse\arrangedswapstate
\else
\global\setbox\arrangedpageA\hbox
{\box\arrangedpageB
\box\arrangedpageA}%
\settrue\arrangedswapstate
\fi
\ht\arrangedpageA\paperheight
\global\setbox\arrangedpageB\box\scratchbox}
