I was able to persuade one user to prepare ConTeXt package for NixOS distro, but, unfortunately, being from Russia he quickly discovered that he minimal example from wiki (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Russian) does not work, i.e.
\enableregime[utf] \useencoding[cyr]
\definetypeface [russian] [rm] [serif] [computer-modern] [default] [encoding=t2a]
\setupbodyfont[russian] \starttext Мама и Папа % Some Russian characters \stoptext
does transliterate Russian characters.
I do not have any experience working with Cyrillic, so if anyone can provide minimal working example it would be very nice?
I persistently claimed that "it must work!" :-)
Since I just adapted a ConTeXt based business card generator to work with cyrillic type, I can assure that it's possible - with XeTeX or LuaTeX. There you just need to encode your sources in UTF-8 and use OpenType fonts that contain cyrillic glyphs, like TeX Gyre. Greetlings from Lake Constance!
