OK, I have removed the lock in minimals, so the beta in minimals reflects the state on your site again. The current version is "the old patched beta" since the official current version doesn't work with the latest luatex. In theory one should not need to use luatools --selfupdate any more when switching to older or newer versions of ConTeXt with mtx-update (first-setup), but I would like to fix that in a slightly different way one day. Three less common platforms still lack tha latest luatex. (If that includes your platform and you would like to use it, you can send me a new binary.)
