Will it be required to install Ruby and/or Lua on the windows platform? If so, is this the binary I should download and install?

Anything else required besides perl?
Not always required, but I would suggest them to install ruby and texmfstart as well (http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/current/cont-win.zip - simply unzip it and copy it to [MikTeX]/miktex/bin) Unless they want to hack, I don't think that they need lua (already), unless Hans and Taco have some surprises hidden in the pockets ;). (In WinEdt that you mentioned there's a special option to uncomment in order to be able to compile ConTeXt documents on a button click, I don't remember where. I used WinEdt extensively in the past, but there's no ConTeXt support built in and utf-8 probably stil doesn't work.) Mojca
