Hello,
the Storm font support by Vit Zyka is broken in actual version of MKII.
I spoke with him, but unfortunately he uses old version and does not
have the time for updates. I discovered that renaming the enco-*.tex
files to enco-*.mkii solves a part of the problem, but there still
remains an issue with math typesetting. Context does not know many
characters (\times, \neq, ...), boldmath etc. Typescripts looks OK and I
don't know enough to look deeper. Could anyone help?
aren't there open type storm fonts?
Yes, there are. Could you please give me an example of installing OpenType
font and creating corresponding typescript? I tried to do that but with no
succes. (otfinst is not working in windows).
\starttypescriptcollection[myfonts]

     \starttypescript [serif] [myserif] [name]
         \setups[font:fallback:serif]
         \definefontsynonym [Serif]           [file:myserif.ttf] 
    [features=default]
         \definefontsynonym [SerifBold]       [file:myserifbold.ttf] 
    [features=default]
         \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic]     [file:myserifitalic.ttf] 
    [features=default]
         \definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic] 
[file:myserifbolditalic.ttf] [features=default]
     \stoptypescript

     \starttypescript[myfont]
         \definetypeface [myfont] [rm] [serif] [myserif]   [default]
     \stoptypescript

\stoptypescriptcollection

\setupbodyfont[myfont]

or use use the simplefonts module

What was changed in MKII that makes Vit's type1 support unusable? He uses
approximately two years old release?
nothing changed in mkii .. but as i have no storm fonts i cannot test 
anything .. anyway, if you can use mkiv, it's all easier as we no longer 
have encodings
