This depends on decision from main gnuplot developers.
I just wanted to mention that Mandriva 2011 that is going to be
released in 6 days contains TeX Live 2010 (updated to TeX Live
repository snapshot from March 2011 which is highly confusing, but
welll ...).
I tested whether ConTeXt terminal works fine there (= if ConTeXt
compiles the source code generated with that terminal) using RC2 and
it seems that it does.
One of the latest mentioned conditions for inclusion of terminal was
that linux distributions should start shipping version of ConTeXt
suitable to compile the terminal.
(TikZ terminal for ConTeXt is broken and useless at the moment; I
don't know why or since when, but it never really worked in any
released version so far. TikZ developer also had some problems running
ConTeXt, so he probably didn't test enough during development.)

You are. Thanks a lot for your interest. Please ask if you will have
any other problems (or report if it is going to work satisfactory).
