The current bad documentation on the Wiki is by me.

I produced two commercial ePubs with ConTeXt, but it’s really no fun, and I 
needed my own scripts that replace ConTeXt’s ePub script.

I’m starting with the "raw" XML export and use XSL (Saxon) to transform it to 
HTML plus the ePub special ePub files.
After all, a Python (or whatever) script would have been the better solution 
for this complex conversion.
A CSS that works with most important readers needed also a lot of time. (But 
that’s a problem of ePub/Readers, not of ConTeXt, of course.)

I can’t recommend ConTeXt as a source for ePub. But I would try it again - and 
probably start to rewrite the wiki anew, because ConTeXt is a moving target…
