Thanks for changing things that way between one and the other. I am

well, no one forces you to update betas
also, as long as we're in transition to mkiv you can expect an occasional
hickup, after all, i have only a few machines to test
It's better to have someone could give you a hand.
In the long term, something like "Release Team" would be a must for
ConTeXt development. With this team, we can do some "Unit testing" for
each release in order to minimize problem.
to some extend this is what the beta is for ... because mkiv is a moving
target it sort of replaces the current, but if i can imagine that users
wait a few days with updating till there are no problems reported
concerning testing ... there is a slowly growing test suite, and i guess
that at some point Luigi will run it alongside his module documentation
runs .. you can offer him help with that (sanjoy also has made some test
setup)
in this particular case (adaption of mtxrun) testing is somewhat
problematic as we need a test-minimal alongside the regular one and that
might happen when mojca has set up the new machine
