Hi,
I anyone got any status on the port? Here's the link for the package; http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/listings/.
I don't know the status of this port. However, Carsten Heinz no longer maintains listings, currently Brooks Moses does. Brooks used to be active in both ConTeXt and LaTeX communities and had started a project of converting core LaTeX functionality into ConTeXt. As such he is an ideal person to evaluate the feasibility of porting listings to ConTeXt. I would suggest writing to him to see his opinion on this. Aditya
