Yes, Asymptote definitely depends on texlive. But I guess that John is open for some "bribery" to make Asymptote work better with ConTeXt :) Last time I tested (maybe that was a few years ago) it was certainly possible to set context as the "backend engine". What's missing is better integration though (to end up with almost as good integration as metapost/metafun offers), and 3D with javascript mousing support never worked either.
