Dear Colin,

as stated in the MikTeX page, the availability of 2.9 is expected to
finish in 12/31/2015, so Christian still has one year to upgrade
MikTeX to version 3.0 or.....continue with 2.9.....but at least 2.9
will be maintained till the end of next year.....so wait till
Christian speaks...if the problem is, as Alan said, that one needs the
very last version of LuaTeX, OK, MikTeX is maybe not the best one at
the moment, but...you must be sure that you stop working because
LuaTex was not recently updated...I do not use Lua...so I am
tranquil....
